The Volkswagen ID.4 range has grown further, with City and Style variants of the battery electric SUV rolling out to UK customers.
Both models bring the option of ‘Pure’ and ‘Pure Performance’ battery and motor specifications, with the former delivering 52kWh and 148PS, and the latter having 170PS on tap, with the same 52 kWh net battery capacity. The City also brings a new entry-point to the ID.4 range, and qualifies for the Plug-in Vehicle Grant (PiVG).
In addition to the four ‘Pro Performance’ specifications already offered on the ID.4 (1ST Edition, Life, Family and Max), the ID.4 is now offered with ‘Pure’ and ‘Pure Performance’ battery and powertrain options, with ‘Pure’ versions providing 148PS and 220Nm of torque, while the ‘Pure Performance’ delivers 170PS and 310Nm of torque. Both feature a battery pack with 52kWh (net capacity), which enables up to 213 miles of range across both City specifications, and up to 211 miles in Style variants (all WLTP, combined).
Charging
The ID.4 ‘Pure’ and ‘Pure Performance’ specifications can both add up to 137 miles of range from a 10 kW rapid charger in 30 minutes, while a 7.2kW home charger takes around seven hours and 30 minutes to take the battery from flat to a full power. Charging to 80 per cent from a direct charge (DC), combined charging system (CCS) charge point takes 38 minutes.
The ID.4 City, as the entry-level model in the ID.4 line-up, sets the pace for the equipment offered across the electric SUV’s range, with standard-fit features including LED headlights and tail lights, 10-colour ambient lighting and a 10-inch Discover Navigation Pro infotainment system.
Driver assistance systems for the entry-level ID.4 include Front Assist, Lane Assist and Adaptive Cruise Control all fitted as standard, in addition to convenience-boosting assistance features such as traffic sign recognition, a rain sensor and parking sensors front and rear.
