Video: Volkswagen ID 3 vs Nissan Leaf | electric hatchback face-off
Published
Nissan took an early lead in the race for a competitive mainstream EV, but has Volkswagen knocked it down a peg?
The 2020 Volkswagen ID 3 is VW’s bespoke new battery electric vehicle. And although it’s not the first EV on the market - it’s not even VW’s first EV - it still feels like a significant car.
Here we pitch it against its key competitor, which is also a landmark car in its own right and is still the world’s most successful EV, the 2020 Nissan Leaf.
In terms of range, battery size, 0-62mph time and top speed, these two are pitched extremely close to each other. So join our testers as they review the pair and deduce which is best.
