Electric vehicles (EVs) have officially leveled up, and the Volkswagen ID.4 EV is proof. At Eddy’s Volkswagen, this all-electric SUV gets right down to what drivers want: punchy power, ultra-practical tech, and space that just plain makes sense.
Our Volkswagen ID.4 review is a great way to get a feel for how VW’s all-electric SUV fits real life around Wichita, Park City, and Derby, Kansas.
For 2026, the Volkswagen ID.4 is available in five trims: Pro, AWD Pro, Pro S, AWD Pro S, and AWD Pro S Plus. These trims give you plenty to chew on, but the real headline is the new rear electric motor, bringing up to 282 horsepower in RWD and 335 horsepower in AWD setups.
With a range of up to 291 miles (Pro RWD), range anxiety becomes an outdated concept. It also runs extremely quiet, with a low-speed synthetic sound (up to about 20 MPH) designed to support pedestrian and cyclist awareness.
Want to mix up your drive? Choose from four distinct modes—Eco, Comfort, Sport, and Custom—so you can dial in a softer touch for errands or a sharper response when the mood hits.
IQ.DRIVE is standard across the new Volkswagen ID.4 inventory. It uses radar, a front camera, and ultrasonic sensors to support features, such as:
Inside, the new VW ID.4 leans into a clean, open cabin with a digital-forward layout. The 5.3-inch ID.Cockpit sits attached to the steering column, keeping key info in your sightline, including state of charge, range, and navigation details when Apple Maps or the built-in navigation is in use.
At the center of the dash, the 12.9-inch Discover Pro Max display angles toward the driver and manages navigation, entertainment, driver-assistance features, and vehicle settings. Standard convenience highlights include wireless mobile charging, wireless App-Connect, SiriusXM with 360L (trial included), plus Wi-Fi capability with a data plan.
The Volkswagen ID.4’s design is more than eye candy. Compact outside, but there’s room to stretch thanks to a long wheelbase. 99.9 cubic feet of passenger space means even taller folks are comfortable, and 41 inches of front legroom is a rare find in the segment.
Packing up for a weekend? Fold down the rear seats, and you’ll unlock 64.2 cubic feet of cargo space. Smaller essentials tuck away in a hidden cargo hold, and you even get an electric sunshade and heated touches (seats, mirrors, washer nozzles) to fight off Kansas winters.
The 2026 Volkswagen ID.4 is offered in six exterior colors: Arctic Blue Metallic, Deep Black Pearl, Mountain Lake Blue Metallic, Opal White Pearl, Pure Gray, and Silver Mist Metallic.
