VW ID.4 GTX REVIEW - THE GTI ALIKE AWD VERSION OF THE ID.4

EV Channels Review

The Volkswagen ID.4 GTX is presented as the sportier, all-wheel-drive variant, bridging the gap between the GTI and electric performance. The reviewer highlights its sporty exterior enhancements, including a new grille and painted lower body cladding, and notes the impressive 0-60 km/h acceleration of just three seconds due to the electric motors' instant torque. The adaptive DCC suspension is praised for its flexibility, offering a stiff sport mode and a more comfortable setting. Interior highlights include optional microfiber sport seats and a blue-themed dashboard with red stitching for the GTX. However, criticisms are leveled at the capacitive controls, particularly for climate and volume, and the small, integrated digital instrument cluster, which relies heavily on the optional augmented reality head-up display. While the GTX offers a more engaging driving experience than its siblings, particularly in terms of seating position and chassis stability, the reviewer suggests the Audi Q4 e-tron offers a more premium interior feel and better sound insulation, albeit at a higher price point. Real-world range is estimated at around 400 km (250 miles) for the 77 kWh battery, consistent with its platform mates.
