General description
The 2021 Volkswagen ID.4 Pro Performance Life is an electric SUV that marks a before and after in the German brand's electrification strategy. With a modern aesthetic and a clear family focus, this model positions itself as an attractive option for those seeking a spacious, efficient vehicle with the quality expected from Volkswagen. Its arrival on the market represented a step forward in the democratization of electric mobility, offering a real alternative to combustion engines.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel of the ID.4, the sensation of smoothness and silence is the first thing that captivates. The power delivery of its 204 HP is instant and linear, providing 0 to 100 km/h acceleration in 8.5 seconds which, while not dazzling, is more than sufficient for daily driving and safe overtakes. The electric power steering is precise and speed-sensitive, contributing to agile city driving and stable highway performance. The suspension, McPherson type at the front and deformable parallelogram at the rear, effectively filters road irregularities, offering remarkable ride comfort. The 77 kWh usable battery, located in the center, contributes to a low center of gravity and good stability. The ventilated disc brakes at the front and drum brakes at the rear fulfill their function, although the combination may surprise in a modern car. Overall, it is a car that invites calm and enjoyment of the journey, with a WLTP range of 520 km that reduces range anxiety.
Design and aesthetics
The design of the Volkswagen ID.4 is a statement of intent. Its fluid and aerodynamic lines, with a length of 4584 mm and a height of 1612 mm, give it an imposing yet elegant presence. The LED headlights, closed grille, and 19-inch wheels (with 235/55 R19 tires at the front and 255/50 R19 at the rear) give it a futuristic and distinctive look. The interior is spacious and minimalist, with a clear dashboard and a large central screen that concentrates most functions. The materials are of good quality and the finishes, typical of Volkswagen, convey solidity. With 5 doors and 5 seats, it offers a trunk of 543 liters, very generous for its segment, making it an ideal companion for family trips.
Technology and features
The ID.4 is packed with technology. Its heart is the electric propulsion system, with a 150 kW (204 HP) motor and 310 Nm of torque, driving the rear wheels. The 82 kWh gross (77 kWh usable) and 352 V battery charges at a maximum power of 100 kW in direct current and 11 kW in alternating current, allowing a full charge in 7.5 hours with AC. The WLTP range of 520 km is one of its strong points. In terms of infotainment, it has an intuitive and connected system, with 'over-the-air' updates. The electric power steering with speed sensitivity and a turning radius of 15.9 contribute to a modern and efficient driving experience. The DGT's '0 emissions' label is a clear indicator of its commitment to the environment.
Competition
In the competitive electric SUV segment, the Volkswagen ID.4 faces tough rivals such as the Tesla Model Y, the Hyundai Ioniq 5, the Kia EV6, or the Skoda Enyaq iV. Each of them offers its own advantages in terms of range, performance, design, or technology, but the ID.4 stands out for its overall balance, its spaciousness, and the confidence inspired by the Volkswagen brand. Its price of 45,780 euros places it in a competitive position within its category, offering excellent value for money for a vehicle of its characteristics.
Conclusion
The 2021 Volkswagen ID.4 Pro Performance Life is a very complete and balanced electric SUV, ideal for families and for those looking to make the leap to electric mobility without sacrificing comfort, space, and quality.
