A Nostalgic Yet Modern Design
The ID.3 GTX Fire & Ice reimagines the cult classic Golf Mk2 Fire and Ice for the electric era. Its ultra-violet metallic paint, developed specifically for this model, mirrors the vibrant hue of its predecessor. The geometric F+I pattern on the C-pillar and 20-inch Locarno alloy wheels with a diamond-turned finish add a sporty flair. Red roof strips, tinted LED tail lights, and GTX lettering on the tailgate enhance its bold exterior. Unique puddle lights—depicting fire on the passenger side and ice on the driver’s side—along with the retro Fire & Ice logo on the roof spoiler, nod to its heritage.
Inside, the Flame red and Floxal blue color scheme continues the hot-and-cold theme. The sports seats, inspired by BOGNER’s FIRE+ICE collections, feature quilted designs resembling down jackets, complete with the FIRE+ICE logo. Custom stitching and logos adorn the steering wheel, instrument panel, door trims, and floor mats, creating a cohesive and luxurious interior.
Performance and Efficiency
The ID.3 GTX Fire & Ice matches the performance of the ID.3 GTX Performance model. Its 326 PS (240 kW) motor delivers 545 Nm of torque, accelerating from 0 to 62 mph in 5.7 seconds and reaching a top speed of 124 mph (where permitted). The GTX-specific chassis, equipped with uprated stabilizers and sport DCC adaptive chassis control, ensures dynamic handling. Powered by a 79 kWh lithium-ion battery, it offers a 367-mile WLTP range and supports 185 kW DC fast-charging, achieving a 10-80% charge in approximately 26 minutes.
A Fashion-Forward Collaboration
Volkswagen partnered with Munich-based BOGNER, a brand renowned for luxury ski wear, to create this exclusive model. Daniel Hiendlmeier, BOGNER’s Managing Director, emphasized the significance of this collaboration, noting that it bridges fashion and mobility. The partnership, revived after over 30 years, transforms a show car unveiled at the ID. Meeting in Locarno, Switzerland, into a production model that appeals to both nostalgic fans and new audiences.
Martin Sander, Volkswagen’s Board Member for Sales, Marketing, and Aftersales, highlighted the enthusiastic response to the show car, which drove the decision to produce the ID.3 GTX Fire & Ice. This model showcases Volkswagen’s ability to blend emotional design with cutting-edge electric performance, carrying the brand’s legacy into the future.
