EV Channels Review
The reviewer provides an in-depth look at road-tripping in the 2021 Volkswagen ID.4, comparing it extensively with their previous Tesla Model S. Key advantages highlighted include superior comfort, particularly with massaging seats, and faster charging times compared to their older Tesla. The ID.4's real-world range of over 200 miles is seen as a significant improvement. However, the reviewer notes that Tesla's Autopilot is more predictable than the ID.4's Travel Assist, and the Tesla app offers far superior remote monitoring and features. The lack of built-in route planning in the ID.4 is a major drawback for average consumers, hindering its potential to compete with Tesla's seamless user experience. Despite these shortcomings, the reviewer would road trip the ID.4 again, emphasizing its ease of use and comfort, but urges Volkswagen to implement essential software updates like route planning to truly appeal to the mass market.
