VW Id.4 vs Id.3 - My personal favourite

[@Ram_M]

Love your attitude, “my id3 is enough for me. I don’t need the id4. “ The words of a contented man.

[@rj7855]

I drove both (rwd not gtx) and I preferred the size of the ID.3. Very happy with my decision so far

[@mikseinimikelpaa]

@@rj7855 exactly same reason why I bought the ID.3 and not ID.4 The size difference just drove me off from the ID.4 Maybe cause I've been driving an Audi A4 for +5 years

[@Shane-ln5zz]

Hold that thought , he buys a id 7 next

[@rj7855]

the electric seats with memories is the only thing I wish my ID.3 would have; I've also a short partner and every time she drove I've have to pump the seat down before I can get into the car. The main reason to go for the ID.3 instead of the ID.4 was the size, we wanted a smaller car as it's much easier to drive and especially to park in the tight parking garages of Barcelona

[@GlenisRetiredNZ]

The fact OP has driven 23 EV's and this is 'his' car speaks volumes. I'm hoping to buy an ID3 next year. Size is important to me. 75% of the time it's just me, 20% it's 2 people and 5% 3 or 4. I might do 1 longish trip a year, 300-400km, with more than just me in the car. I'd rather have the convenience of easy parking with a smaller car 95% of the time rather than the comfort of the ID4 for longer drives 5% of the time.

[@francoisjeanmougin4405]

4 adults fit perfectly well in an ID.3. Just try it before you buy/rent.

The ID.4’s acceleration would be enough for me and for a family car. My current family car is slower and I feel comfortable.

[@buddy1155]

Thank you for talking sense! People buy cars to commute, do shopping or visit friends and family, not for drag racing.

I dont Need to have fun or drag race cars. With today congestion on the streets I rater enjoy driving confortably with travel assist than strong accelerations

[@Jakesmusings]

I love my iD4. It’s funny when people talk about the lack of acceleration. It accelerates better than my wife’s car (Subaru crosstrak) and just as well as my old Mazda 6. I dont need more acceleration, and I’ve driven this on US interstates and side roads. My only criticism about the iD4 is; 1. No heads up display (only in Europe), no rear climate control (also only Europe). Also have problems where trying charge and it’ll not unlock the plug even though I’m done charging. Finally the infotainment system is horrible and hopefully fixed through updates.

Thanks for the review! I really enjoyed watching it, I'm a Russian-born Londoner and I find that I really like the German way of assessing cars... here people want everything electric for example and I like manual fw/backward seat controls for example and I'd rather save money and have a manual tail gate etc... it's a unique review in English and I really value it!

Thanks for the video Chris! Sounds like you want AWD too!

[@jaz4280]

Got the id4 ... I also don't need the excess space but will come handy. The main reason is the look, and the large battery. I felt if I go for the id3, I will regret my decision and wanting to upgrade to ID4. You are more sensible than me.

I have to say I have the ID4 and it is so nice to drive. I have tested the EV6 and the Ioniq and they were a lot of fun. For me the ID4 is so confident though. It rides like a German mature and expensive car. I did not feel the same on the other cars. At the end of the day we all have different needs but for me the ID4 is like therapy on wheels :)

[@DaraM73]

Thanks to VW forgetting I’d paid at 1st Edition id3 deposit, and then to your fantastic informative videos, I’ve ordered the big battery ID4 (but couldn’t afford the gtx version, sadly). We live a hours drive from everywhere so range is key for me, and didn’t want to sacrifice space/middle seat on the id3…but to me it looks better than the 4. Also, the non-adaptive standard suspension was smoother in the id4 than the 3, so I can’t imagine what adaptive feels like, though I’m sure all aspects of any of these cars will smash my 07 Passat 2.L tdi 4motion (except in the snow).

I also love my agile ID.3 because I have no need for a large car like the ID.4 in the city .....

[@nmtb1972]

After 5 I don't know and 5 I don't need it, the verdict was rather clear :-)

[@kayz-art]

Oh.... automatic trunk opening/closing... my previous car had that. I miss it a LOT! Hands free opening, closing when you forgot to close it in the car, love it. My ID.3 trunk also doesn't close well. So often I sit in the car to see the trunk isn't completely closed and I need to get out again. Hate it.... And a glass roof for me is a must in a car... Thought it nonsense until I had a car once that happened to have it. Now driving a car without glass roof I just feel locked up.... So I'D.4 wins with the automatic trunk, but besides that, glad I have the ID.3 (also because it's cheaper).

[@l.e.i.4111]

I like SUVs but I drove both ID3 and ID4 and, honestly ID3 is more agile. Let's not forget those 400kg less on ID3 vs ID4. You don't have kids and even if you would the space in the back is more than enough. It is true that the trunk is the size of an Golf but many families can live with it. I remember you have small dogs. Last but not least you don't like SUVs, so why selling the bird in your hand with the one in the tree. I am not a fan of black piano trims and slide buttons and ID3 is not the most beautiful car in the world but it's not bad at all. So, keep the ID3. 👍

We tested both and bought the ID.3. Agree with everything in the video. ID.3 just feels better to drive and is big enough for our family. ID.4 GTX solves the acceleration but is +500kg and +15keur with the same features and it has worse turning circle. I love the RWD turning circle. Super nice for city driving and parking. ID.3 has more space than ICE cars of this size class. It is only a small car from the outside. Which is great for parking in these small European parking slots.

[@marcschenk8610]

If you've been driving an ID.3 for a long time and then testing an ID4, the power is actually missing. I am with you on almost every point. The only thing I can't agree with, is the volume. Maybe it's because my ID.3 has 18 inch rims. They're really quiet and comfortable. The ID.4 Max with 21 inch rims was louder in my opinion.

I'm driving a large station wagon now, and it just works if all five of us should go on the road. I can't have a smaller trunk, because the dog cage wouldn't fit there. Looking at the ev market right now, Enyaq and id.4 seem to be the only two options for me.

ID3 is nosier, sitting position in ID4 is a bit higher and easier to get in or out. Otherwise if you were blindfolded sat in the drivers position, asked to drive I would be a very, very hard guess. ID4 can have a trailer hitch ID3 cant*, well you can get a bike rack mount which is nice.

I don't think so.

[@danmcool69]

have you tried an Opel CorsaE? in my opinion it has the best compromise of sport/confort suspension from all small/medium EVs

[@BatteryLife]

No, only e2008. But not enough range and space for me. And not a real electric platform. I find it weird to look at a car not knowing right away that it is electric.

What about a comparison of VW ID3 58kw vs Tesla Model 3 SR+?

I made a video last September.

@@BatteryLife Great! I missed that, thanks!

If you could put one in a box and ship it to the USA I'd really appreciate it. :)

Carrying on a bit too much about the looks - beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

[@BatteryLife]

That is why I say 209 times my personal opinion

[@Alrukitaf]

Battery Life actually as a matter of fact I agree with you, on the looks and also the wastefulness of it. But of much more importance is range price, economy power etc. maybe someone has a personalised algorithm for rating all these things. Handling etc. ALL of these things are of course matters of opinion.
