From Battery Life.
Description:
In this video, I take the Volkswagen ID.3 GTX Performance Fire & Ice onto a special Autobahn section and test high-speed driving up to 200 km/h in winter conditions.
The Fire & Ice Edition is a design variant only — technically identical to the normal ID.3 GTX Performance. What makes this test different is:
Winter temperatures
20-inch winter tires
Repeated full acceleration runs
Sustained high Autobahn speeds
Car specs:
79 kWh battery
240 kW rear-wheel drive
Top speed: 200 km/h
20-inch winter tires
Comfort vs Sport mode comparison
In this video you’ll see:
Acceleration behavior up to 200 km/h
Stability at 180 vs 200 km/h
Comfort Mode vs Sport Mode at high speed
Noise & bumpiness with winter tires
Power limiting after repeated acceleration
Real consumption at very high speeds
This is a real-world winter Autobahn test, not a lab run.
