The name Volkswagen ID. Golf is reserved for the electric version of the future Volkswagen Golf 9, which should appear no earlier than 2028 and will eventually replace the Volkswagen ID.3 Neo.
With the update, the ID.3 model will receive a new software platform. It is already available for the Volkswagen ID.4, Volkswagen ID.5, and Volkswagen ID.7 models. The list of innovations includes an improved Travel Assist driver assistance system with traffic light recognition, as well as One Pedal Driving mode, which allows the car to slow down through recuperation to a complete stop.

The multimedia system Innovision will receive an expanded In-Car Shop, through which additional functions and services can be activated. It also has an app store, where apps are available from categories such as audio, streaming, parking, charging, and games.
The new software architecture supports the Vehicle-to-Load function, allowing external devices to be powered by the car's high-voltage battery. Through a 230 V outlet in the cabin or a special adapter to the Mode-3 connector, equipment with a power of up to 3.6 kW can be connected, for example, an electric stove, coffee maker, or electric bike.
Another innovation will be the digital key. It will allow you to open the car and start it using a smartphone or smartwatch without a separate app - based on the principle of contactless payment. Moreover, physical buttons on the steering wheel will reappear in future ID. family models for basic functions.
