What makes the ID.4 a Good Choice?

Before we get into the specifics of features and power, there have to be some qualities that make the new Volkswagen ID.4 the right SUV for you to drive. This electric SUV delivers a roomy, high-tech interior at a reasonable price. VW also brings you an SUV that achieves impressive safety scores as an IIHS Top Safety Pick+ designation.

Check Out the Cabin of this Electric VW

As you would expect from the Volkswagen brand, the interior area of this electric SUV is conservative. That said, you’ll find a high degree of comfort and quality in the cabin. The center of the dashboard is dominated by a 12-inch touchscreen that’s flanked on one side by a digital gauge cluster. The seats are covered in standard mélange fabric and leatherette to give us the feeling desired during a drive. You’ll find a pair of color schemes for this vehicle, giving you the overall look you desire.

Everyone should be comfortable inside the ID.4. The rear seats fit adults, and the cargo area offers 30.3 cubic feet of storage space when all seats are upright. If you fold the rear seats down, you’ll find 64.2 cubic feet of useable cargo room.

The ID.4 Doesn’t Show Off

Another characteristic of the Volkswagen brand is the conservative nature of the exterior style of most vehicles. This feeling carries to the Volkswagen ID.4 to bring us an electric SUV which isn’t showy, but it is attractive, modern, and stylish. You won’t initially realize that this is an EV until you open the doors and step inside. The ID.4 offers eight paint options and three wheel designs, which makes it easy for you to enjoy this electric SUV in a unique way.
