IMO, all the rants on glossy plastic, touch controls, infotainment, etc. are on point and couldn't be said enough. However, ranting on an SUV not doing burnout is a bit too much. Personally, I don't get what the point is and I'll never do burnout even on a muscle car, especially when it's my own car. Also, Tesla has a few over-the-top stupid features too. You need to drill down the touch screen to change air flow direction of the fans. There's no instrument panel in the newer models. The door handles are unnecessarily gimmick over function.

The difference between mach-e and this is that id.4 is eligible for the 5000$ from federal gov in Canada. This brings the price 13.000$ down in Quebec (tax in). Putting the base price below 45k was a great marketing strategy for VW. At a lower price than the competition will sell very well.

Sorry, but I'm team Yuri here. This design is good looking, functional, and inoffensive. The Y looks comparatively awkward. I think the performance complaints are overstepping it. This is clearly designed to fall in the footsteps of the average car purchaser, think about the HP ratings for the CR-V, RAV-4, Civic, Soul, Camry (4 cylinder). These numbers and this performance is completely in line with those. The black plastic and control complication comments are completely spot on though. On another note, I love your reviews but I'd encourage you to think of the average driver. For a lot of people (including myself), Teslas ride too harshly...was this more comfortable? I don't think you guys commented on ride quality much, but perhaps I missed it. Here in Montreal it's a big deal, and I care more about the ride quality than I do the 1 time a month I have a fun curvy road to take.

@@recnepse7498 I hate to break it to you, but most people do not buy cars to accelerate instantly. This vehicle was designed to compete against small ICE suv/crossovers not model Y and Mach E. The Mach E is hideous and the Tesla while fast is not a looker either, not to mention the horrible build quality. I will take the gloss black over crushing my kneecap on the infotainment unit in the Mach E. To put it quite simply this vehicle will sell in volume which is what it was designed to do. I wish they would have reviewed the vehicle as someone who the vehicle is intended for. Not every vehicle has to have blazing acceleration and ear piercing exhaust note. Not every vehicle has to do twice the speed limit through cliché corner. Some vehicles are meant to take you to work and run errands in comfort.

This car reminds me of when Apple computers had 1 mouse button. It was supposed to be "simple" but it ends up being more complicated when you need to hold a keyboard button while clicking a mouse button instead of just using 2 buttons. They added a rear button to toggle between front and back windows instead of just using 4 standard buttons.

Team Jakub on the exterior styling. The wavy beltline is my biggest complaint. It makes the body sides look taller and puffier than they should. Visually, there's too much vertical distance between the beltline and the wheel well openings. I do appreciate your honest reviews, including both complaints and praise!

I bought a used Hyundai ioniq electric 2 years ago thanks to your Toronto - Ottawa road trip video. I'm also a big VW fan. I was hopeful for the ID lineup... I really appreciate your honest take on the ID.4. I can't wait to see your review of the IONIQ 5.

I have an id.4 for 2 years and it’s been great. I drive around 50 miles back and forth everyday for work and not once has it let me stranded. With 30,000 miles on it I would say that’s pretty reliable. the stuff your complaining about window switches and temp controls isn’t a big deal in reality. The car is one of the best value Ev’s for around $40,000 with tax credit. Y’all are tripping.

Maybe the review would improve with the AWD version, ability to turn off all the traction control and a software update to fix the lag? Oh, and a VW-supplied microfiber cloth to constantly wipe off the nasty piano black interior surfaces.

I saw it the other day in person when I test drove the ID3. Quite like the looks of both. Also liked how the ID3 drove. Yes, maybe not extremely exciting, but at that pricepoint, it's pretty good value for money overall if you need a usable family electric car.

This is my 4th EV and I actually love it. This isn't meant to be a sports car. We own a Model 3 for that. Some of the things they complain about they just need to learn more about. You can leave the air on when you get out. Read the screen! You can't just test drive this and know everything. But when you own it and know what you can do it's great.

I think the styling outside is outstanding, especially compared to a Tesla or Mach E. Unfortunate about the rest of it and VW is not famous for their reaction time in correcting things. I am not optimistic about getting an EV replacement for my GTI.

This is the type of electric car I would get for my teenager. Bland, not fast, goes from A to B safely, and loaded with safety features. I think VW is offering a modest vehicle that we need, not what we desire.
