Volkswagen’s refreshed ID.4 and ID.5 electric SUVs have now gone on sale, priced from £46,035.
The ID.4 and ID.5 arrived on sale in 2021 and 2022 respectively, being some of Volkswagen’s first bespoke electric cars.
As part of this 2024 update, both cars now use a larger 12.9-inch touchscreen running on a new generation of infotainment. Changes include new menus, while the touch sliders used to change the temperature are now illuminated. Changes have also been made to the augmented reality head-up display, while the drive mode selector has been moved to the steering column.
Changes have also been made under the surface, with a new drive unit helping to boost the performance of the standard models quite significantly, now producing 282bhp as standard, while torque has been boosted from 310Nm to 545Nm.
At the top of the range, the sporty all-wheel-drive GTX car now puts out 335bhp, a 41bhp upgrade compared to before, and reduces the 0-60mph time to 5.4 seconds.
Prices for the ID.4 start from £46,045, for the entry-level Life Pro model, and rise to £46,035 for the top-spec GTX. Similarly, the ID.5 begins from £50,940, with the sportier GTX version coming in at £56,545.
Both the Volkswagen ID.4 and ID.5 are now available to order, with first deliveries expected in early 2024.
