If you've been longing to make the switch to an electric vehicle but were put off by the steep prices, Volkswagen has the answer with the 2024 ID.4. This fully-electric SUV proves you don't need to break the bank to drive an emissions-free car packed with the latest tech and amenities.
Let's start with the ID.4's competitive pricing at $48,495 for the base model. Compare that to rivals like the Hyundai Kona Electric ($46,399) and Kia Niro EV ($45,595), and you're getting a larger vehicle with more interior space for a similar cost. Even the top-tier ID.4 Pro AWD trim with all-wheel drive checks in at a reasonable $57,995.
But the ID.4 doesn't sacrifice range for its affordable price tag. The ID.4 Pro boasts an impressive 468 km of range on a single charge, letting you cruise from Toronto to Montreal without depleting the battery. If you do need to top up, the ID.4 can charge from 10-80% in up to 28 minutes at a DC fast charger. Plus, your purchase includes four years of free DC fast charging through Electrify Canada.
With three trims available (ID.4, ID.4 Pro, ID.4 Pro AWD), there's an option to fit most budgets and needs. The base ID.4 comes well-equipped with heated seats, wireless charging, and driver assistance features like adaptive cruise control. Stepping up to the Pro adds amenities like a larger touchscreen, ventilated seats, and an upgraded audio system. And the range-topping Pro AWD brings exhilarating all-wheel drive performance capable of hitting 100 km/h in just 5.3 seconds.
Safety is also a priority in the ID.4's design. Every model includes front and rear parking sensors, blind spot monitoring, automatic emergency braking, and Travel Assist which can automatically steer, brake, and accelerate the vehicle at speeds below 210 km/h. These advanced driver aids provide peace of mind, especially for families.
Speaking of performance, the ID.4 delivers more than just zippy acceleration. With available all-wheel drive and up to 2,700 lbs of towing capacity, it has the muscle to tackle tough terrain or tow a small trailer for weekend camping adventures.
Ultimately, the 2024 Volkswagen ID.4 represents an affordable way to experience the cutting-edge technology and eco-friendly driving of an electric vehicle without compromising on practicality or features. With its spacious interior, long range, and budget-friendly pricing, the ID.4 could be the electric SUV that finally convinces you to make the switch from gas-powered driving.
