Starting and ending

Starting your trip

Open the MyWheels app and start the trip as soon you are standing next to the car.
The car will open automatically, followed by a window of 15 seconds for you to actually open the car.

Weren't able to open the car? Then you can open the car through the MyWheels app.

Is the car charging?

First, end the charging session before departure:

  1. Take the charging card/charging key out of the glove compartment.

  2. Scan the charging card at the charging station.

  3. Disconnect the charging cable from the charging station and the car.

  4. Place the charging cable back in the trunk.

  5. Put the charging card/charging key back in the glove compartment.

The ID.3 has no start/stop button and turns on/off by sitting on the driver's seat.

Have a seat in the driver's seat and depress the brake pedal.
In the driver's seat, there is a sensor that ensures the car turns on automatically.
By pressing the foot brake, you 'confirm' your presence as the driver.

It might be necessary to depress the foot brake again to be able to put the car into a gear.

As soon you have taken a seat on the driver's seat, an image with the car will be displayed.
The moment you depressed the brake pedal, the car will start, and the basic drive information will be displayed.

If the gear knob does not respond, depress the brake pedal again

When ready to depart, turn the gear knob to position D, keeping the foot brake depressed as you do so.

The positions are:

P = park
R = reverse
N = neutral
D = drive
B = drive (+high regenerative braking)

You will see the gear lighten up in the drive-information screen behind the steering wheel.
As soon as you release the brake in position D or R, the car will begin to move.
Have a nice trip!

You can see on the display how many kilometers’ worth of battery. Remember that the actual distance may be shorter than shown. This depends on such aspects as the way the car is driven, the use of heating or air conditioning, and weather conditions.

It's our belief that we can keep the Netherlands on the move with just one million cars. We can do our bit by promoting the use of shared cars. Because the more cars we share, the fewer cars we need to own. If there’s always a shared car just around the corner, you can go wherever you want, whenever you want. MyWheels. Only benefits.
