What is the actual range of the Volkswagen ID4?
2 Answers
The actual range of the Volkswagen ID4 is approximately 450 kilometers. Pre-departure vehicle inspection: Before setting off each day, conduct a comprehensive inspection of the vehicle, including checking for oil or water leaks, measuring tire pressure to ensure it is appropriate, inspecting the engine oil condition to verify its color is normal and the oil level is correct. Safe driving: Use seat belts correctly; their protective effect during a severe collision is no less than that of airbags. Avoid fatigue driving and take a break every 2 hours. Traffic rule compliance: Especially on highways, do not speed. Speeding not only risks traffic police penalties but, more importantly, is unsafe.
I've been driving the Volkswagen ID.4 for over a year. The official claim is about 520 kilometers of range, but in actual use, it's far from achievable. For daily urban commuting, it's usually around 350-400 kilometers. On highways, especially at higher speeds or with strong wind resistance, the range can drop below 300 kilometers. In winter, using the heating system consumes a lot of electricity, reducing the range even more. To save power, I use the eco-driving mode, avoid sudden acceleration, and always maintain standard tire pressure, which helps extend the range a bit. Before weekend trips with my kids, I check the remaining range and charging points on the app to ensure safety. Overall, the actual range varies from person to person, but developing good driving habits makes it more practical.
