2022 ID 4 Performance
Newer EVs promise more immediate acceleration than their conventionally-powered counterparts, especially when darting from one traffic light to the next at city speeds. The base rear-wheel-drive model produces 201 horsepower and 228 lb-ft of torque; reports from independent testing suggest that the ID.4 can sprint from 0-60 mph in as little as 7.5 seconds on its way to a top speed of 99 mph.

Some might find this acceleration figure to be a bit disappointing considering that the Hyundai Kona Electric can achieve the same sprint in well under seven seconds, and even the slowest Tesla Model Y Standard Range only needs 5.3 seconds to do the same, while the pricier Long Range takes 4.8 seconds for the same sprint. For this reason, it may be worth waiting a bit longer for the dual-motor AWD version with its 302-hp powertrain, which should be significantly quicker - we estimate a 0-60 time in the mid-six-second range.

At first, the VW ID.4 will be offered with just one powertrain. The rear-mounted AC permanent-magnet synchronous electric motor generates 201 hp and 228 lb-ft of torque and comes with a lithium-ion battery with a gross capacity of 82 kWh.

It makes use of a single-speed direct-drive transmission. Later in the year, the dual-motor AWD version will add a second motor to the front axle and produce up to 302 hp and 330-lb ft of torque. The Driving Mode Selection system allows the driver to choose between four modes: Eco, Comfort, Sport, and Custom.
At its best, the ID.4 gets up to around 40 or 50 mph with ease, feeling every bit like a swift EV with its immediately available torque. There's no Tesla-like shove into the seats, but acceleration feels on par with most conventional mainstream crossovers, albeit smoother and quieter. Thereafter, its responsiveness does taper off a bit disappointingly, but the more powerful AWD version should remedy any concerns you may have about the SUV's performance.

2022 ID 4 Gas Mileage
According to the EPA, both the ID.4 1st Edition and the Pro S trims will manage figures of 104/89/97 MPGe city/highway/combined and a total range on a full charge of 250 miles thanks to the 82-kWh battery. The Tesla Model Y Long Range Dual Motor manages a significantly better 131/117/125 MPGe and a range of 326 miles.
Other affordable EV options with slightly more range include the Chevrolet Bolt and Hyundai Kona Electric with 259 and 258 miles, respectively. We noted that the ID.4 seemed to discharge electricity slower than expected.

The onboard computer showed only a five-mile range loss after 20 miles of driving, leading us to believe the ID.4 could go further than 250 miles if needed. Later in the year, the more powerful ID.4 AWD model will offer a 230-mile range. The ID.4 comes with an 11-kW AC onboard charger, a 110-volt charging cable, and has a DC charging acceptance rate of up to 125 kW.

Using DC fast charging, the ID.4 can add 60 miles of range in 10 minutes or be recharged from five to 80 percent in around 38 minutes. With a Level 2 charger, either at home or at a public charging point, 33 miles of range can be added in about an hour, but a full charge will take 7.5 to 11.5 hours overnight. On the plus side, the ID.4 comes with three years of inclusive fast charging with Electrify America where customers can take advantage of over 17,000 chargers spread across the country.
