FRANKFURT (Reuters) – Germany’s Auto Motor und Sport said Volkswagen’s new electric car, the ID. 3, did not meet the automaker’s same fit and finish criteria and had limited diversity when it tested the car before its release.
“The inner look of the hood appears to have been painted with an aerosol can,” the publication said, lamenting the lack of build quality of the Volkswagen brand in a pre-production style they had in this week’s edition.
The complaint comes as Volkswagen chief executive Herbert Diess has given up control of the VW brand on a day-to-day basis, following complaints from the company’s union leaders about his style of control.
Uneven gaps in dashboards, an infotainment formula that takes a long time to provoke, and a navigation formula that doesn’t paint are other features that publishing is helping to criticize.
The powertrain and handling were good, but the diversity only 359 kilometers, according to the publication.
Volkswagen’s leader has criticized the company’s electric car program for falling behind. In March, VW rejected the complaint but admitted that cars needed last-minute upgrades.
Last week, Volkswagen CEO Herbert Diess drove the Tesla Model Y and praised the vehicle.
“This car is for us in many tactics (not all!) A benchmark: user experience, upgrade, driving characteristics, high-end styling performance, cargo net, range,” said Diess.
The VW logo plans to build 1. 5 million electric cars by 2025. The Volkswagen Group, whose logos also come with Porsche, Audi, Skoda, Bentley and Bugatti, will launch 75 electric cars by 2029 and build 26 million vehicles.
