The Volkswagen ID.4 AWD Pro Outperforms the Mustang Mach-E

However, it has a limited range.

The Volkswagen ID.4 AWD Pro was only available with RWD when it originally went on sale in the United States. The electric motor in the RWD Pro provides 201 horsepower and 229 lb-ft of torque.

If you want more power, VW now offers an AWD version of the Volkswagen ID.4 Pro, which adds a second electric engine for a total of 295 horsepower and 339 pound-feet of torque.

With that much more power, you’d expect the AWD ID.4 Pro to have a far shorter range. Volkswagen ID.4 AWD Pro official range data have now been confirmed by the EPA, and they are better than we expected.

The ID.4 AWD Pro has a range of 249 miles on a single charge, while the AWD Pro S has a range of 240 miles on a single charge, according to the EPA.

The RWD ID.4 Pro S can travel up to 250 miles on a full charge, while the rear-wheel-drive ID.4 Pro has an EPA-estimated range of 260 miles. Given the performance difference between the RWD and AWD ID.4, this is a little range loss.

According to the EPA, the ID.4 AWD Pro gets 102/90/97 MPGe in the city, highway, and combined. The ID.4 AWD Pro S, on the other hand, has a combined MPGe rating of 98/88/93.

As a result, the Volkswagen ID.4 AWD Pro outperforms the Ford Mustang Mach-E AWD (100/86/93 MPGe) and AWD Extended (96/84/90 MPGe).

The Mustang Mach-E AWD Extended, on the other hand, has a longer range, up to 270 miles, which is 10 miles fewer than the ID.4 AWD Pro and 20 miles less than the ID.4 Pro S.

However, the added performance of the AWD ID.4 comes at a price. The ID.4 AWD Pro starts at $43,675 in the United States, while the AWD Pro S costs $48,175.

The Pro starts at $39,995 and the Pro S starts at $44,495 for rear-wheel-drive ID.4 vehicles. These prices do not include additional destination charges, however, all ID.4 models qualify for a federal tax credit of $7,500.
