How to Charge the Volkswagen ID3 at Home

Model: Volkswagen Id 3 MK 1 - Years: 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026
Part: Checks and maintenance

Video tutorial

The message conveyed by the video is that charging an electric car like the Volkswagen ID3 at home is easy and less demanding than one might think. The comparison made by the YouTuber is fitting: the power needed for daily home charging for many commuters (covering about 31 miles) is less than that of a hairdryer.

The necessary equipment is a home charging cable; do not use a standard Schuko socket for regular charging as it is slow and can be dangerous due to prolonged overloads. It is recommended to use a wallbox, a wall-mounted charging point installed by a qualified electrician, which is safer, faster, and often enabled to take advantage of reduced rates.

A "Mode 3" cable with a compatible connector is needed to connect to the wallbox. Park the car nearby, connect the plug to the car socket, connect the other end of the cable to the wallbox, and charging will start automatically.

When finished, unlock the car, disconnect from the wall first and then from the car.
