The GTX theme continues with premium ergoActive sports seats in fabric and leatherette, red decorative stitching, a multi-function steering wheel, and a GTX-specific cockpit surface. Standard enhancements include metallic paint, a Harman Kardon sound system, and an augmented-reality head-up display, elevating the driving experience.
Kai Grünitz of Volkswagen’s Board of Management highlighted the ID.3 GTX Performance as the electric analogue to the iconic Golf GTI Clubsport, emphasising its exhilarating acceleration and the joy of driving. This model promises driving pleasure as Volkswagen transitions its GT tradition to electric mobility.
