I enjoy your vids, my wife and I bought our ID4 almost a week ago and it’s a fully loaded trim and all that, only down sides to it are no 360 camera view and AC seats. Aside from that it’s a great car so far and I ALSO love the wireless apple car play that starts up in a snap when you enter the car. Gets you out of the actual VW software where they have always been weak in for years. But I’ll keep you updated. Keep it up bud!
Version 4 software is likely one of the best updates to any EV according to Kyle at Out of Speck reviews and even Bjorn Nyland also raved about it and now VW is going to go NACS, so that should end the issues of those poor EA stations.
I've been enjoying this quick 5 minute videos.
💯
And man is more enjoyable too, seems less complaining at the moment
I need an AWD electric what do you recommend?
Nice video but you should really do a disclaimer on the year of the car you're talking cons about, given that software is one of the cons and that can change really fast with upgrades
Enjoy your vids.. very informative as well as entertaining. I'll be moving to your part of the globe, north eastern part (Udon Thani)
Im considering shipping my 23 Kia Niro Wave, which I love. But I'm not sure of the charging Infrastructures in that country. What are your thoughts? I wouldn't want to go back to ICE vehicles if at all possible.
Thanks, and don't stop your videos.
2023 ID.4 has the updated software and has no problems. I have the 2023 ID.4 and have no issues with the software.
Just picked my 23 AWD Pro S (on a lease) up and took it on a 1800 mi trip from Fl to SD and it did great. I was shocked at the charger availability north of I-70 and I-29.
Great to see a video from you!
It just seemed great in price when I bought it. $49k out the door price, then $2000 state credit and $7500 tax credit, and 3 years free charging. So far, I racked 75,000 miles within 2 years, saving over $15,000 on gas or $7,500 on electricity.
Although it's great value, I will sell it after 3 years of free charging end. Its technology is slow and laggy.
Have been following you for several years now. Always spot on EV reviews 🎯✅🍀
Currently only getting 230 miles on a full charge although the seller stated we would get 275 grr
Typically charge to 70-80% and see around 175 miles. It’s a big big bummer
I get 207 miles of range on 80% charge. It has 39k miles.
2021 Pro S
I read a very recent review of the 2023 ID.4 and they had almost all of the same complaints you documented in your numerous videos about the problems you had with your own ID.4, mainly software. Apparently it has not gotten much (if any) better. And charging is still pretty slow, apparently.
ID.4 has a very short front end so passengers get more room, much better!
Software has been fixed and is now much faster than it was.
To me:
The pros: good external design, high quality material inside, and very smooth ride.
The cons: lack of many options as if it's a classic fuel-based car.
FYI.. The 2024 ID4 AWD does 0-60 in 5.4 sec.
The 2023 ID4 AWD does 0-60 in 5.5 sec.
Thanks dad ❤ 0:13
If a car is good or bad, you cannot say after 2 years. If you keep it for 20 years then you can make a statement. So the owners of Golf Mk4 could start to make reviews.
Why is your mic on the left like a prop?
I test drove the old software and it kept me from buying the ID4. Slow and awful. Well, VW is already showing a completely new software system that obviously has new hardware running it as well. It looks like it's night and day. They got rid of the main screen too. The sliders light up now LOL. They got rid of that stupid shift knob as well. Changed the motors so they added 86hp to the RWD and the AWD has 32 more hp with a boatload of extra torque. I think you should go check out the 2024 model once you get a chance. I'm going to.
I have id5 pro and the actual range is 300km with 100% battery... 33kwh /100km
Hi mate, what is the best car in the market, Electric and Hybrid.. thanks
I have a new 2023 ID.4 Pro S AWD.
VW managment should test Subaru's adaptive cruise control... and then fix VW's. It is horrible. When the vehicle ahead that is it following slows down and stops, the ID4 runs right up close to it and then suddenly slams on the brake hard... nothing smooth about it at all. And the horn is so weak... more sutable for a wheel chair than a car one might use on the free way. If I had tested the horn before I bought the car, I probably would not have bought it. Same with the adaptive cruise control. My mistake for assuming all adaptive cruis controls would be as good as my past 2016, 2018, 2022 Subarus.
A friend of mine has the ID4 with a 52kw battery, no heat pump.
It is absolutely appalling!
Lucky if he scrapes 100 miles in cold weather.
Large car, small battery, no heat pump! £44,000 😂
Electrif America features is useless in North Central texas as there are only three (3) locations in a 250 square mile arwa around fort worth texas. Useless if charge locations do not exist...might be great in California but who wants to live there?
ID stands for - I Depreciate.
Hey Alex how’s it going on ? Do you stopped inviting with Tom M into your channel it was a good idea. Hope you well man
Can you pros and cons of the BMW iX?
IMO EVs need to get a min of 350mi range
If you think that you do not understand how electric cars work. Please educate yourself, it's very easy with Google
Volkswagen cut down production of this car, in Europe the sales are extreme low
Popular? I live in suburban NY and I almost never see one on the road. Audis, Kia’s, Hyundai, and Tesla are all over the place.
Well then if you don't see any then I guess that's what the reality is for the rest of us. Next time you look at the sky and don't see the moon let us all know that the moon is fake too.
@@EforElectric Bit of a snarky reply. maybe they are not common in his particular area.
jajaja love muricans and their way of thinking "if is not popular where I am then it's not popular anywhere". You do know there are other places in the world right?
@@madestro NY is the second biggest EV market in the US after California, they have the second highest EV registration, and the majority of these are in the NYC metro area. I am stating that in the second largest market in the US I hardly see any VW EV’s. I did not say the world, I said in my area, which I stated happens to have a lot of EV’s.
with Musk gone to the dark side, am looking for a good smallish EV. will have to check it out. thx Alex!!

I love my ID4 I charge at home, and I have solar, You are just a cry baby, none of those issues aren't happening to me. is the app is slow I don't care none of my cars in the past had one.
A classroom of 5 year olds can design better software than is in the ID4.
Sounds like trash. I've never had any problem with my Tesla.
Actually Tesla is bigger trash but it looks like you are happy with it so that's all that matters
Not great, but better than Tesler
In no way is ANY I.D. better than ANY TESLA!
Why would you buy this car with the broken software issues. Just buy a Tesla and you won't regret it. You will get stranded in that car with the broken no charge American chargers.
How can you speak for everyone? Out of the 5 EVs (soon to be 6 as I bought an I'd.4) I've owned, my Tesla model y had been by far my least favorite.
@@Ty-ls5xg Why is your Tesla Model Y your least favorite? That I.D.4 is a pig and barely gets 200 miles and the display is like from the 80s!
No car play still a big miss for tesla
@@C.W. Car play sucks. The reason for that is so you don't use your own navigation and miss a charger...... dummy! It is by design.
And your money with a tesla goes to the globe’s biggest SOB
an EV is a second car ,not a primary form of transportation, it’s not going to work out anyway
I wish the U.S. didn’t cling so much to the fallacy of battery powered vehicles. I wish VW was still selling diesel cars in the U.S. as they actually are good for the environment. Pre-DEF and DPF only. Before I get flamed, tell me how a vehicle that gets in the 50’s for MPG and lasts close to a million miles is worse than strip mining minerals (in foreign countries) and a battery that lasts 4 years or so and costs another $30K plus to replace? You can’t. And don’t bother calling me names and making me the bad guy. Want proof? Let’s mine the minerals here in the USA. I bet y’all would block that!
You forgot to add all the Diesel fuel needed to mine and transport to processing facilities. Then the Diesel fuel to bring it to your local STEALER. BUT, a 1.9 L Diesel engine will kill us all. Makes sense doesn't it?
