As the automotive industry continues its shift toward a more sustainable future, Volkswagen is doing its part to make electric driving more practical, accessible, and appealing to a wider audience. The VW ID.4 is the automaker's first US-market vehicle to leverage its innovative MEB modular electric vehicle platform. This stylish, spacious, and nicely equipped crossover offers flexible cargo capacity, practical range, fast charging times, and many high-tech amenities. It's a compelling pick for drivers seeking comfort and versatility with zero tailpipe emissions. And drivers from Gaithersburg to Hagerstown can find it here at Fitzgerald Volkswagen Frederick. Here's a quick look at a few of the highlights.
VW ID.4 Powertrains, Range, and Charging
The ID.4 draws power from an 82-kWh battery pack that feeds either a single rear-wheel motor or an all-wheel-driving dual-motor setup. RWD models (201 horsepower, 229 pound-feet of torque) offer the highest range estimates, with EPA ratings of 275 miles for the ID.4 Pro models and 262 miles for the feature-packed Pro S. If you want an EV with more zip for your daily drives, all-wheel-drive ID.4 models increase output to 295 horsepower and 339 lb-ft, with an EPA-estimated of 251 miles for the ID.4 Pro and 245 for the Pro S.
The ID.4's fast charging rates make it convenient and easy to live with. With Level 2 (240-volt) charging equipment, it can replenish its battery overnight in around 7.5 hours. At 135-kW-compatible DC fast-charging stations, charging to 80% takes just 30 minutes. This is especially convenient when accounting for the fact that ID.4 owners receive three years of complimentary, unlimited half-hour charging sessions on Electrify America's DC fast charging network.
Versatility and Technology
The VW ID.4 offers a spacious and refined cabin with comfortable seating, modern styling, and intuitive controls. The cargo area measures 30.4 cubic feet behind the second row. And when you need more capacity, the rear seats fold easily for access to 64.2 cubic feet.
The ID.4's cabin also equips many desirable tech features, like a 12-inch Discover Pro touchscreen with integrated navigation and wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto smartphone integration. Plus, every ID.4 comes standard with Volkswagen's IQ.DRIVE suite of advanced driver aids, like
- Front Assist collision mitigation
- Lane Assist
- Blind Spot Monitor
- Rear Traffic Alert
- Adaptive Cruise Control
- Front and rear parking sensors
