The cargo room is the standout. My only gripe is the touchscreen climate controls, which I knew going in.

2026 Volkswagen ID.4 review
Volkswagen ID.4: everyday electric done right. Illustrative review
9.4/10 OffLot expert score
The 2026 Volkswagen ID.4 sits near the top of its class. Roomy second row and flexible cargo floor; ride stays composed on rough pavement. Engine gets loud under hard acceleration and third row (where offered) is for kids, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $42,000, it lines up with most direct rivals.

Owner reviews · 4.7 of 5 from 3 owners
Replaced an older Volkswagen with this one. Big step up in cargo room; I'd like a little more power from the base engine.
Bought it for the school runs and road trips and it has handled everything so far. Fuel economy has been close to the sticker in mixed driving.
