Volkswagen ID.4

The Volkswagen ID.4 is a compelling compact electric SUV that balances practicality, comfort, and value. It offers a spacious, well-built interior, a smooth ride, and up to 291 miles of EPA range. Built on Volkswagen's MEB platform, it features intuitive (though sometimes critiqued) infotainment and is now receiving significant Over-the-Air software improvements. As a mainstream family SUV, it targets buyers seeking a no-nonsense, reliable EV from an established brand.

Its strong score is due to its competitive pricing, generous standard equipment, comfortable driving demeanor, and improving software ecosystem.
