In the spring it became known that Volkswagen had a major problem with the software of its ID.3 electric car. The first vehicles have now been delivered, but the software was not yet ready. But now there is good news.
According to the information in the NextMove online magazine, VW is now starting the major ID.3 update: “The ME2 software is now available for the ID.3 so that the functions that still need to be supplemented can be compensated for with this update” it says there. These “additional functions” are precisely the features that Volkswagen had announced, but was not able to implement due to difficulties in development.
However, the group had already confirmed in the middle of the year that it would initially come out with basic software and then equip its ID.3s with an update at the end of the year. That’s it now. The series software of the VW ID family is now final, writes NextMove.
In the workshop for an update
The plan now provides that VW will initially bring the update to vehicles that have not yet reached the customer. In the second step, all buyers who have their ID.3. have already informed. They have to go to the workshop for the update – and the dates are now being distributed from calendar week 49 onwards. In addition, it is said that the ID3 beta testers from the First Mover Club will have to wait until next year for their update.
Why the development of some functions has taken so long is unknown. The update now brings two previously missing features: On the one hand, the full functionality of the head-up display and the ability to connect your own smartphone to the vehicle, i.e. with Apple Car Play and Android Auto, reports NextMove.
