“Most” 2023 and 2024 VW ID.4s will qualify for the full US EV tax credit in 2024 – here’s the lowdown on eligibility.

VW 2023 and 2024 ID.4s with US-manufactured SK On battery components placed in service in 2024 will be eligible for the full $7,500 federal tax credit. SK On is the battery division of South Korea’s SK Innovation, and its SK Battery America plant is in Commerce, Georgia.

That means that the 2023 ID.4 Standard model, with a 62 kWh battery, an EPA-estimated range of 209 miles, and a starting MSRP of $38,995, would cost $31,495 after the tax credit is applied.

Too bad everything about the user interface outside of the pedals and steering wheel rim are godawful touch interfaces.

Don't forget about VW software being a steaming pile of unresponsive, buggy trash.

Of course; the software was implicitly included. I’ve read some horror stories about how that shit will just randomly crash and become unresponsive. And then there’s the constant interface lag.

Can confirm, driving one. It also doesn't save some settings...

I think you're onto something here. Make steering and acceleration touch controls too!
