Volkswagen Rebrands ID.3 as ID.3 Neo With Innovision Software, V2L and Usability Fixes Ahead of April Premiere

Full specifications remain undisclosed pending the mid‑April debut.

Overview

  • The ID.3 Neo adopts Volkswagen’s Innovision infotainment and latest software with an integrated app store and optional smartphone digital key, a suite now rolling out to ID.4, ID.5 and ID.7 models.
  • Usability tweaks include the return of physical steering‑wheel buttons, while teaser sketches preview a revised front with a thicker full‑width light bar and a new U‑shaped intake.
  • Driver assistance updates add traffic‑light detection to Travel Assist and introduce a one‑pedal driving mode.
  • Vehicle‑to‑Load functionality is built in via a 230 V socket delivering up to 3.6 kW to power external devices.
  • Volkswagen has not detailed the Neo’s powertrain or any GTX variant, whereas entry ID.4 and ID.5 trims gain the APP 350 rear motor and a 58 kWh LFP battery for up to 40 km more WLTP range; the world premiere is set for mid‑April.
