2026 Volkswagen ID4

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.
