I OWN TWO VOLKSWAGEN ID.4S! HERE’S WHICH IS BEST - PRO VS PRO S

EV Channels Review

This video provides a detailed comparison between the Volkswagen ID.4 Pro and Pro S trims, focusing on the value proposition of the $6,000 price difference. The reviewer, Dave, highlights that both models share the same 77kWh battery and 150kW rear motor, making them identical in terms of drivetrain and core performance. Key differences lie in aesthetics and luxury features. The Pro S, particularly with the Gradient package, offers a black roof, 20-inch wheels, a glass roof, a power liftgate, and a more premium interior with leatherette seats (including massaging and memory functions for both front occupants) and ambient lighting with more color options. The Pro S also boasts a larger 12-inch infotainment display, which, while not functionally different, offers a clearer visual experience, especially for navigation apps like Waze. The Pro, conversely, is presented as the better value, offering superior efficiency (0.3 miles/kWh better in a small test) and a lower entry price, making it the sensible choice for those prioritizing pure utility. The reviewer concludes that the Pro S is a "pure luxury" add-on, with features like the panoramic glass roof and massaging seats being the main draws, while the Pro is the "best electric vehicle value on the market today" for its efficiency and core functionality.
