We have owned our 1st edition since March 27th and absolutely love our car. My wife and I are in our 70's so adapting to new apps isn't easy. Free charging at Electrify America, along with tax incentives made our decision over the Model Y. Your glowing reviews also tipped the scales.

@@laloajuria4678 The UI is simple and easy to use. I have no complaints. I have a EA station in my hometown. I’ve been using it almost everyday. I haven’t been charging from home. I’m waiting on my home charging equipment to be delivered. My first trip to EA station didn’t go well, but that was my fault. Once I learned how to active the station using my EA app things went perfectly. I drove it out of state once to another EA station and it went perfectly. So far so good. The 4 year 50000 mile warranty was a big deal to me.

Kyle, I was very surprised to watch this video today. I live in Wilmington and Lisa lives in my neighborhood!!! I recognized all the streets you drove. I’ve enjoyed your videos and they really helped us choose an electric vehicle. We almost bought the ID4, but went with the Mach E instead. It was a long wait, but our Mach E arrived last week. We are still learning about EV ownership, but so far we agree with everything Lisa says. If you are in Wilmington again, my wife and I would love to meet you. Also, we’d also love to meet Lisa if she is willing to meet a new neighbor.

Great "average person" review! Kyle, because of your past ID.4 road trip videos, I purchased an ID.4 1st edition. I've had it for a month now. White exterior, white interior - the same as Lisa's. I am getting about 275-280 miles of range on a full charge. I drive around town during the week and out of town day trips on the weekends. Like Lisa, I had to figure out by trial and error how to use public fast charging. Also, like Lisa, it's a great experience not to have to stop to buy gas anymore.

Your g/f’s mom (and her dad) rock! I’m 65 and got my 2021 Model 3 at the end of March. I love it! Like she said, I’m never going back to an ICE car. My wife is looking to replace her 10 year old Camry. In the process of car shopping, she’s gone from ICE to hybrid to plug-in hybrid to BEV. At the top of her list is the VW ID.4 (she’s 49, so a bit younger). She took one out for a test drive the other day and was very impressed. It will be interesting to see what she chooses (the Kia Niro is on the short list, as is the Bolt). I’m going to show my wife this video. I think she’ll get a kick out of it. Great job!

Bought a first edition ID4 in early June- commute about 110 miles round trip a day, 500-600 a week. Coming from a 2019 BMW 640gt, I was worried about comfort and driving experience. While the ID4 is no 6-series, it’s fun, comfortable, and in my opinion, an incredible value for the money. Compared to the XC40 pure electric and Mach-e, very happy with my choice. Thanks for your reviews, helped me pull the trigger!

The dealership days are numbered. Many of the major car companies are now following Tesla business model by selling vehicles online. It make more sense in the business aspects. They can make more money than having to sell a bunch of vehicles at a wholesale price to dealerships. In reality, many salespeople don't care about the company's future, they just care about making that commission.

I am an early Tesla adopter. I purchased the I.D.4 for my wife. Mechanically it does well. It is as smooth and quiet riding as my Model S and much more so than my Model 3. Sadly, electronically it has more bugs than even Terminix can handle. I took it to the VW dealership with a list of 17 problems. They kept the car two weeks and claimed all was fine. They knew nothing about the car. Volkswagen jumped the gun on this one in my opinion as far as the tech side of this car is concerned. As for now I.D.4 stands for “Incomplete Design” 4 now.

We are in a similar situation. I purchased a Tesla Model X in 2018. While not perfect, overall I love the car and I agree with you that Tesla is certainly the EV industry leader at this stage of the game. I've logged 85K miles on the X in just under 4 years, mostly in Arizona, but also a half dozen road trips as far away as Montana. I have an ID4 on order to replace my wife's VW Passat. I decided on the ID4 for economic reasons: Lower cost to purchase; $7500 tax credit and 3 years of free Charging on the EA network. These factors tipped the scale in favor of the ID4 vs. a Model Y. - Perhaps our vehicle will be more bug-free than your ID4 experience. I hope you can get your issues resolved.

I got mine in July. I had been driving a fairly new Miata I loved but it wasn’t very practical. I was worried it was not going to be fun to drive. I was completely wrong, this car is fun to drive. I have made the charging work real well, even though I live in a condo. I supercharge like once every two weeks, maybe once a week if I drive long distance. And in between I charge in my little garage with 110V every night. The nightly 110V charging gets me enough juice to make it to work, drive around town, and back home where I just start the process over-again.

The ID4 is a great car. Idk why everybody besides Kyle has been ripping on it. It’s similar in personality to an i3 (for good reason). It’s a real bummer the 1st editions are all gone. It’s a bargain with the tax credit. Oh, and I’d love a toggle option to switch D/B on the gear shifter. I love regen braking and would love to have the option to not bump it down twice. I know the demographic is for people who are EV electronauts, but that’d be cool.

I test drove it (RWD), and it convinced me to wait for AWD. It is totally enough horsepower for getting on the freeway and passing safely, but my problem was that the acceleration felt exactly like my old crappy Nissan Altima, and I want an improvement in the 'fun factor' if I'm going electric. It's no Tesla, but the AWD will be 0-60 in 5.7 seconds, which will be that electric fun we expect.

You should do one with my grandfather in Wilmington. He’s 80 years old and just got his first EV, a Model Y in December. His car already has been trashed as he uses it like a pickup on job sites.

I feel the 1st reason for wanting an EV would be to be a part of the solution when it comes to the planers atmosphere being poisoned and the dependency of oil. What good is all this tech and looking smart trending towards EVs if we are only doing so to keep up with the Jone's? I do applaud those who think green though.

Great review. Glad to hear the ID4 isn't that bad and that they fixed the infotainment systems lag. I wish she didn't lie and say it's fast though. Lol Chill mode on my Model Y LR would still smoke that thing.

Actually this brings out a good point Unlike mostly all other dealers who send their new owners extensive surveys, nothing from VW, I think this is the way they could learn features for future software updates.

I loved this video. My car is approaching 10 years old and 200000 miles, and I’m looking a buying a new car once the prices and inventory levels get back to normal. I’m looking at a few evs though and this is one of my choices. Glad to see a “real person” review an electric car.

I have a Y, husband wanted an EV and we put our deposit on an AWD ID4. It will be here next year. The part 3/4th through about the turning radius! It’s horrid on my Y! Glad it’s better on an ID4.

Does the ID4 Nav have chargers mapped like the Tesla to show you where to stop on your trip?

Also can you lock the car and disable the motion sensor alarm, so that you will not trigger the security alarm when the dog is in the car while car is locked ( window open of course). Something like Tesla's dog mod.

Yeah Electrify America has a lot of dead zones good chance for Charge point or others to come in with stations. However that's crazy what do you do if you're coming from Virginia on hwy 17 down to Myrtle beach, SC or I'd look to ride down to Moorehead City NC? Trips like this would scare me guess I would have to get an adapter for Tesla supercharger. 🥴🥴

Waiting for the Hyundai ioniq 5 or Kia EV6 - VW is nice but I think these have better overall features. Especially the 80 percent charge in 18 minutes.
