You can absolutely SWITCH OFF the automatic braking. This functions called Speed limit Preview, Road layout preview. Press Assist ->menu(three horizontal lines) -> ACC -> and then you can switch on and off this stuff.
Hi! I'll try to get one of those. Currently it's rather diffcult to get cars for testing as most dealers are struggling to get new cars due to the Chip-crisis.
Funny. I was driving some of the same roads last year on my holiday in weerberg. Also with an ID3. Mountain trips are awesome. En just use 30% instead of 100 for a whole trip cause of downhill regeneration.
Hi, great video, thank you. This is the best consumption test I've seen and the best figures I've seen for the iD.3. I will have an iD.3 Life Pro Performance 58Kwh delivered in June (4 months time) and as my first EV I am a little anxious about things like Range and Charging, with the UK's lagging charging infrastructure, (I can't currently have a home charger fitted - I'm working on moving to a new home where I can have one fitted - fingers crossed!) Can I ask which mode (Eco, Comfort Etc.) you set the car to for this trip and also whether you used "B" or "D" drive setting? I drive roughly 90 miles (145 Km) a day as a courier with 10 to 20 short (1 to 3 mile) trips in and around the City whilst delivering and a 13 mile motorway trip each way to and from the City where I work (hopefully I'll be moving closer to the City soon) - mostly flat with the occasional small hill. If I drive intelligently, reading traffic to reduce dramatic speed changes (avoiding complete stops where possible) and only gentle braking/acceleration, would you say 15 KWH/100 Km would be realistic for me? Thanks.
First of all, thank you. I normally set it on Eco and try to reduce the braking/regen to a minimum, therefore always D and I also wanted to turn the "intelligent" regen off, which wasn't possible with this car at the time but apparently is now. In this setting the car decides itself how strong to brake ahead of a turn, corner, traffic light, roundabout, etc., which I found very annoying as for example I know that the traffic light will go green in 2 seconds (because I see the crossing pedestrian light and I know it takes x seconds from this one turning red to my traffic light go green then I can let the car coasting whereas this system already starts breaking. Same with roundabouts and so on. Although the ID.3 has a good regen rate it's still better to avoid regen (means braking), as you never get back what you've invested in the first place. Over the whole year and knowing british weather (having lived in Reading for years) I think it should be possible to stay below 15. Do you know this video? th-cam.com/video/EfgwLy7r-eA/w-d-xo.html

Thanks. Must tell the VW-dealer as he told me you can't.
This is great! Thank you! But your Wh/100 mls at the end. Is this not Wh/mls?
Oops, sorry, thanks.
Hi!!! Please make a video with hyundai i30 III 1.4 mpi 99ps or kia ceed 1.4 mpi 99ps!!
Thanks!!!

Nice! Hope you enjoyed your vacancy here :)
@@ecodriver1746 surely did.

@Ecodriver
Excellent, thanks 😊 👍
No I hadn't seen that video but will watch it now, thank you.
