The presentation of the Volkswagen ID.3 is just around the corner and, for that reason, it is not surprising that as we approach the month of September, some previously unknown details about the German manufacturer's electric car are leaking.

What could be seen in the video?

The promotional video very briefly showed the interior of the ID.3, with special attention to its two screens, one located behind the steering wheel and the other in the centre of the dashboard.

Five physical buttons could also be seen below this screen: to access the Menu, the climate control, activate or deactivate the hazard warning lights, contact assistance services and modify any of the different modes available in the vehicle.

The ID.3 will integrate its own Voice Assistant

Volkswagen also took advantage of this brief advertising spot to promote the voice control capabilities of the ID.3Without having to manually access the climate control settings, the driver interacts with the vehicle's voice assistant, alerting it that it is cold, and the latter is then able to raise the temperature set on the climate control by several degrees.
