Volkswagen has announced that the ID.3 will be assembled at the Transparent Factory in Dresden, in addition to the Zwickau plant.

The ID.3 is the first model in the latest generation that Volkswagen is putting on the road under its global electric offensive. The Transparent Factory is to evolve into a Centre of Future Mobility where innovative technologies are developed and tested in collaboration with industry partners and startups. Efforts to pursue new areas of business such as the function testing station are to be intensified. Vehicle collection is to be significantly expanded, and the location is to be made even more attractive as a destination for visitors and customers.

Following on from Zwickau, Dresden now becomes the second assembly plant in Germany for the ID.3. The first vehicles from the MEB family are scheduled to leave the assembly line in Dresden from late 2020. Volkswagen also announced that the plant could also assemble further models from the ID. family at a later point in time.
