2021 Model Redesign Year

The ID.4 EV is roomy and nicely finished inside. The standard rear-wheel-drive version has an EPA-estimated driving range of 206 miles, but acceleration feels tepid. The more powerful all-wheel-drive version uses two electric motors and has an EPA-estimated driving range of 263 miles. We found that this version had quick acceleration, a comfortable ride, and a quiet cabin, except for the annoying pedestrian-warning sounds at low speeds. The ID.4 has responsive handling, but it isn't sporty to drive. The rear seat is generous, as is cargo capacity.

The controls are unintuitive, and the slow-responding infotainment system is distracting. The EV can take up to 175 kilowatts at public DC fast chargers, which is competitive.

2021-Present

2021 Model Redesign Year

The ID.4 is Volkswagen's first-ever long range EV for the U.S. market. The rear-drive model has a 201-hp, rear motor, with an EPA estimated 250-mile driving range. The AWD Pro S, 295-hp, has EPA estimated 240-mile driving range. Standard features for the five-passenger ID.4 compact SUV include dual-zone climate control, a heated steering wheel and rain-sensing wipers. The ID.4 is nimble and enjoyable to drive.

The ride is firm but composed. It's also roomy and functional. Some of the controls are unintuitive or too distracting. It gains about 20 miles worth of range per hour of charging when plugged into a 240-volt connector. Standard active safety features include FCW, AEB with pedestrian detection, BSW, and RCTW. EPA estimated ranges increased slightly for all 2022 versions. For 2024, the all-wheel-drive ID.4’s EPA-rated 263-mile driving range is competitive.
