VW ID 4 First Drive Review 2022: CONSIDERING? WATCH THIS NOW!

Video Summary

The VW ID.4 is an SUV variant with fancy 18-inch rims and a good level of comfort. It has a light bar with the new VW logo on the back. The base model has a 52 kWh battery and 148 horsepower, going from 0 to 60 mph in about 10.8 seconds. The claimed range is 213 miles. With a 7 kWh wall box, it takes about 7.5 hours to charge, and with a 110 kWh fast charger, it can reach 80% in around 36 minutes. This model is rear-wheel drive, with all-wheel drive available in the GTX variant or possibly a trim level down. The interior has a unique reddish-brown color and neat stitching with soft materials above the eye line, but scratchy plastics below. The ride is comfortable, relaxing, and quiet, with only slight wind noise. The rear seat offers a good amount of legroom and headroom, enough for a couple of kids or two adults comfortably, though a third passenger might be a bit squeezed. There's dual climate control and two USB ports in the back. The camera quality is decent. The lower horsepower version lacks a bit of acceleration. If you want more power, consider the 201 horsepower version or the GTX with 295 horsepower. The car is built for cruising and relaxing, not performance. The handling is fine, and it has a bit of body roll. The suspension works well, and you can get adaptive suspension as an option, but this increases the price. The starting price of £38,000 makes it a good, affordable entry into the EV market if you want space and practicality. The infotainment screen is 10 inches, and the digital dash has limited customization options. Overall, it's a very usable, relaxing, and practical option for a family SUV at this price point.
