You are off by 300,000.



"Starting from August, the first of two assembly lines for the production of Volkswagen’s all-electric ID. models will be ready to go in Zwickau. The body shop, paint shop, assembly and infrastructure have all been extensively modernised and renewed.

The second production line at the site will be revamped to produce the same model by the end of 2020. In the final expansion stage, 330,000 fully electric cars per year are to roll off production lines in Zwickau from 2021 onwards." VW: First ID.3 production line ready by August - electrive.com

So how many of those will be ID.3s? Not 330,000.

US gets to have crappy cars just like the 90s all over again. We want this car, not the overpriced CUV.
