Frequently Asked Questions

How fast is VW ID.4 Pure 52 kWh

The VW ID.4 Pure 52 kWh is equipped with a powertrain that delivers up to 109 kW (146 hp) of power and 162 lb-ft of torque.

This enables a 0 to 60 mph acceleration in 10.7 seconds (ranked â„–453 out of 572 electric vehicles) and a top speed of 99 mph.

Real-world range of VW ID.4 Pure 52 kWh

The estimated real-world range for VW ID.4 Pure 52 kWh falls between 171–209 miles, ranking it №401 out of 572 electric vehicles. Several conditions can influence this range:

  • Speed: The battery drains faster at higher speeds.
  • Temperature: Extreme temperatures can impact range.
  • Terrain: Range is reduced on hilly or mountainous terrain.
  • Driving style: Aggressive driving behaviors, such as frequent acceleration and braking, decrease efficiency.
  • Feature utilization: Climate control and media system usage also affect range.

These figures are approximations, and your actual driving range may vary. When planning trips, consider these factors and be prepared for potential charging stops.

For trip planning assistance, utilize the EV Navigation interactive map.

VW ID.4 Pure 52 kWh charge port type?

The VW ID.4 Pure 52 kWh in the USA comes with a CCS Type 1 charging port. It can be charged at home using a standard domestic socket or at any public AC charging station with the compatible cable. It's important to note that the car's on-board charger (inverter) limits the maximum AC charging rate to 7.2 kW, resulting in approximately 24 miles of range added per hour of charging.

For significantly faster charging, public DC fast-charging stations are available. Although the car can achieve a maximum DC charging rate of 118 kW, factors such as battery temperature and charge level may affect the actual charging speed.
