What matters most on a used ID.3?
A documented battery state-of-health figure. It is the number every buyer now asks for.

Older cars on early software are worst. Confirm the latest update has been applied before retail.
Why check the 12V battery?
A weak 12V battery causes symptoms that look like major electrical faults and kills confidence on a test drive.
