I've had 3 EV's....a Nissan Leaf, a Chevy Bolt, and now an ID4 Pro S. I have loved them all but wanted a larger car, so I traded in the Bolt. The ID4 is an outstanding vehicle and I love to drive it. It handles very well and is great on the open road or in the city. The technology is amazing and I haven't had any serious problems with the infotainment system but the voice activation will occasionally alert when someone in the front passenger seat is talking and have not said the magic words, "hey I.D." The face of the key fob is totally smooth for each of the actions intended, so it is easy to set off the alarm on the car if the key is in your pocket and you touch it with your arm. It feels like a safe vehicle and the visibility is very good all around the car. The material on the seats is different, but wonderful for comfort and cleanliness. My only wish for something different is that the one-pedal braking would come to a complete stop. When you pull up to a stop light, you can tap the brake and it will "auto hold" but I wish it would do it automatically, like it did in the Bolt. I've always used the one-pedal braking and love it. The fact that VW provides free charging for three years with Electrify America was also a bonus. I have taken two long distance trips and it hasn't cost me a dime in "fuel." The Electrify America stations are good and plentiful throughout the US. The back-end cargo space is not as roomy as I would like it to be, but it is sufficient. Passengers ride comfortably. I purchased the vehicle 21 months ago and am extremely glad I did. The price was great and the value is even better.

The ID4 is quick and fun to drive. Love the interior storage efficiency up front and roomy rear hatch. Back seats are comfortable for taller adults. EA charging experience is mostly positive- though more chargers are needed and a better understanding of the widely variable charging speeds in 30 min complimentary charging can be frustrating. I mostly charge at home which is convenient, but hopefully also will extend battery life.

Want an EV? Buy something else

I bought a base ID4 about 10 months ago and put about 6500 miles on it so far. It was nice at first, but the more I drive it, the more I hate it. Pros: Very comfortable seats Cons: Pretty much everything else. While the seats are very comfortable, it really is the only good part (IMO) about this piece of junk. The infotainment system is probably the worst I've ever seen and used. We have a Kia Sorento PHEV and that system is far from great, but miles ahead of the one in the ID4. It is laggy and sometimes completely unresponsive. You have the option to "customize" it, by picking a layout or multiple layouts if you want to, but the system itself will dictate what you can put on what widget/screen. The driver info display is even worse, you can't customize it at all. I am somewhat old school and I like analog (or digital gauges that look analog) over numbers and the driver info display only displays numbers. Moving on the "sliders" and haptic "buttons" on the steering wheel, also, probably the worst idea VW has ever had (a topic that has been discussed all over, not going into it, just saying they suck). The sliders for temp control and volume underneath the screen are NOT backlit in my model (I believe the PRO and S models do have illuminated sliders) and they function just as good as the crap buttons on the wheel. Continuing to the window controls, and it gets even better. At first, I didn't understand the issue other people had with them, until I noticed. 95% of the time I hit the button for the rear windows on accident and roll down the rear instead of the front, not a huge deal, but it's frustrating. The interior build quality is also not what I expected from a VW. As stated above, the car currently only has about 6500 miles, but it rattles all over, sounds like loose panels (will have the dealer take a look during the first service). The driving range is pretty ridiculous too, I don't think I've ever gotten the EPA estimate and most of the time I don't even drive the 70mph speed limit on the highway. The range drops significantly when it gets cold and when you turn on the heat or ac. I currently get anywhere between 110 to 170 miles with the recommended 80% charge. 170 miles ONLY when i don't turn the heat/ac on and when I don't drive on the freeway, my current average is maybe around 140, absolutely inadequate. Speaking of driving, driving the ID4 is extremely boring, it is slow from a standstill (not what most people would expect from an EV) and the ride itself is on the stiffer side, thanks to the very comfortable seats, its manageable. Stupid me, I decided to lease the car, rather than financing it, and thanks to VW, I'm stuck with it unless I want to buy it out of the lease and try to sell it. That would be a very bad idea, as the resale value of the ID4 is horrendous. Dealers have quoted me 17000-19000 for it, which means the car lost more than 50% of its value in less than 1 year. Just something buyers need to be aware of. I don't think I would ever get another EV and most certainly would not get another VW.

Love comfort, looks, and price paid. 4.1 software update does not resolve all issues!
