Volkswagen Group (OTC:VWAGY) is offering customers of ID.3 in China a battery-rental program just a month after launching the compact electric car in the market, cnEVpost reported on Tuesday.
What Happened: The report cited a buyer who bought an ID.3 without a battery at a much lower cost than the retail price.
The ID.3 is priced at $27,200 (RMB 173,888), while the customer grabbed it at just around RMB 110,000 as it did not include the battery.
Volkswagen is reportedly offering the battery-leasing option as a flat amount, interest free loan for five years; the program is said to be valid until the end of this year.
Why It Matters: The German automaker’s rental program brings down the cost of owning the electric vehicle though customers still have to pay back the loan.
Chinese electric vehicle rival Nio Inc (NYSE:NIO) offers a similar program. Nio also offers a battery-swap option for its buyers wherein they don't have to purchase a battery when they buy a car.
The locally made compact electric vehicle ID.3, which is among the top-selling electric cars in Europe, is the third such model from Volkswagen in China.
Volkswagen also makes and sells the ID.4 and ID.6 electric vehicles in China.

Price Action: VWAGY shares closed 0.37% lower at $31.14 a share on Monday.
