Great review Pat! I like the ID4 and would consider leasing one in the future.
Same here!
Excellent review, it would be nice to retest in the winter to check the all wheels drive.
Absolutely! We'll try to make that happen!
FYI my 2024 id4 awd has the heads up display. It's an option but we have it. Not sure why it's not available in the US. We do not have the physical buttons underneat the central console (would have loved that) AND we got two tiny arm rests instead of the full one you guys get. Oh we also miss the illuminated logos which the new id7 gtx has in EU now (that really sucks for us).
It's crazy how they differ here compared to overseas and how we still do not have the ID Buzz or the ID7 which has been delayed even longer here in N-A. The first year ID4 had the arms on the side and a sliding door for the center console but they went away from that here afterwards. Thank you very much for your comment and watching the video.
It was fun to see the changes from '23 to '24. A lot more zoom for this year! 😂
EVs are improving at such a high rate... The future looks promising 😁
Great video, very detailed and explains what matters to the drivers. Thanks, Just subscribed
Wow thank you very much for the kind words and subscribing. We are working hard to bring the consumer's perspective into our videos
New subscriber and 2023 ID.4 S RWD owner. Great review and such an honest take on your likes and dislikes.
I totally agree with you on the haptic steering wheel buttons not being as bad as alot of the reviews you've seen, I feel the same and have no issues with them at all. I love my ID.4 and road trip it as often as I can.
The 62 kWh battery gets me about 225-230 miles on the highway in warm weather and 270-300 in the city. The infotainment hasn't been the disappointment for me that it has for alot of others. I use the built in navigation and its never steered me to a down charger or given me less than a good road trip experience.
AA & Apple Carplay are a nice touch if you wanna use Google maps, Apple maps, or ABRP to enhance your navigation experience, if you're one of the many who hate the built in navigation.
Great videos, love your content, keep up the outstanding job you guys are doing!
Hey really enjoying your comments! Very well researched and insightful. I will say I did not dislike the built in navigation and of all the EVs I've taken on trips, this is my 2nd favorite. It's pretty hard to compete with the built in Google OS and UI in my opinion but VW is doing a pretty good job and for a good family EV, the ID4 is one of my top choice and might even be my long term purchase but I need to have the Blazer EV for a week before making my mind up lol. Thank you so much for subscribing, you are exactly the kind of viewer we want to interact with!
I would say the Equinox EV or the Model Y long range are the biggest competitors at this point but also like you said the blazer ev or the honda prologue. When the updated 2025 Ioniq 5 starts getting produced in the us that may be the best option in this segment. You just have to worry about being able to insure that and it getting stolen by some kid with a usb drive. The big advantage with the VW over the current other options would be the higher towing capacity and the tow hitch etc. coming standard with the AWD. I really don't like that VW dropped the tourmaline blue color for 2024 though.
I thought about the Equinox, but for cargo space the Blazer was a better match in my opinion, however the model Y is also a good option. The towing for VW is definitely key because a lot of people don't tow daily but have a trailer to take their ATV out or trips to the dump and that comes in handy. As for the colors.... they lack options and fun lol I like colors that pop and there are none for the ID4
The Chevy Equinox seem to be a similar ev, maybe not as fast as the VW but better range, then the charging, WV may have the edge with charging but not by much. So price and availability.?? I'm thinking I would go with the best price. Enjoyed your review.
Yes the Equinox looks like a really good deal. I would say it's smaller than the ID4 but cargo capacity is not a deal breaker, for sure go with the better value. Thank you for watching
As someone who just won a lemon law case against VE for the 2022 ID4 Pro S, I can confidently say this car is a complete POS.
I'm really sorry to hear that. There is a case to be made for 1st Gen models and that is if you get the 1st gen, you are gambling. There were a lot of software, charging issues and battery problems with the first two year models from what I hear. What happened with yours?
Funny, that all ev have so much torque and low towing capacity... Way to go VW!
They weigh a lot!
