Volkswagen just dropped a bomb on the EV scene! Introducing the limited edition ID.3 GTX Fireice, an electric hot hatch that resurrects the cult classic Golf II Fire & Ice from the 90s. Only 1,600 units, each priced around €56,000 in Germany. Yes, you read that right — Volkswagen isn’t just playing on nostalgia, they’re hitting wallets hard!
This little electric beast comes in two power variants, with the stronger model sprinting from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.7 seconds, electronically limited to 180 km/h. A 79 kWh battery offers a range of up to 420 km under WLTP standards, and fast DC charging takes about 26 minutes to go from 10% to 80%.
The look? Ultra Violet Metallic paint pays homage to the original 1991 Golf, with a bold red roof frame and transparent matte stickers featuring a geometric Fireice pattern. Exclusive 20-inch Locarno wheels with anodized paint and a red GTX center add to the aggressive stance.
Inside is a treat for detail lovers: a two-tone color scheme with “On Fire Red” on the driver’s side and “Keep Cool Blue” on the passenger’s, while the seats are quilted in a style inspired by Bogner Fireice’s feather jacket collection.
Volkswagen’s move clearly shows electric cars don’t have to be boring or sterile. This model is a blend of retro charm and modern tech, but at a price that will leave many gasping. Is this just another marketing stunt or a truly worthy car? Share your thoughts — maybe you’ll be one of the lucky ones to drive it!
In a world where electric cars are spreading fast, Volkswagen decided not to hide in the shadows but to shine bright. The ID.3 GTX Fireice isn’t just a car, it’s a statement — that past and future can merge into a perfect package. Just remember, if you see it on the street, it’s not your average ID.3, it’s a fiery beast with the soul of a legendary Golf!
