Nice. Excited to see these for sale as I believe they won’t be till January which is weird. Hoping to test drive it and see if the software is bearable
With the better motors, the faster computer hardware, and the additional range; VW has fixed a lot of the issues with this car.
Get the new version to the USA and discount the old models to sell them off.
New software, backlit sliders, faster acceleration, additional range, faster charging, there aren’t many problems left with the car. It’s the ordinary/boring option, but many people don’t want a car that stands out.
It’d be nice if it was also cheaper with prices closer in line with internal combustion engine compact crossovers. It’d be nice even if the 2024 prices only managed to stay the same rather than up compared to 2023.
At this point the Model Y is the “ordinary/boring” option and also IMO quite ugly. ID.4 looks very ordinary at first glance, but the understated design is going to age very well and I find it quite handsome.
Also I’m a sucker for light treatments and the ID.4 (also the Ioniq 5) has really nice DRL and marker light designs that really pop in the night, versus Tesla’s least unimaginative light designs ever.
Some of Tesla’s lights are literally the minimum they can get away with in terms of size and illumination.
Sub 300 miles on a 2024 model? And they want how much money for it?
