Used Volkswagen ID.4 for Sale in

Washington, DC

Tight turning radius. Not too big for standard parking spaces. USB-c ports.

Dependency on screen makes it awful to drive. Screen occasionally goes blank. Only 2 cup holders. Steering wheel can't control audio or phone options. Climate is all via screen. Reverse uses same screen as all other vital functions so tasks can't be done simultaneously. No lock controls in the back seat. Driver access to rear windows is an annoying implementation. Windows often go down when you are toggling for those to go up. Worst implementation of technology ever.

I like that it's electric; I like the acceleration and the quiet performance. I like the styling. I find the seats to be comfortable.

There is so very much to dislike. I find it hard to believe there is a car that has worse ergonomics; from the infotainment, to the window controls, to the key fob, the phone app, to the quality of the windshield glass. Nothing works as it should. Upon entering the car you must tap the touch screen at least twice, every time, every single time. There are only two window buttons, despite there being four windows. The HVAC and the seat heat controls don't retain memory to hold previous settings. I never trust when I get out of the car it won't roll away, because the shifter is so poorly designed. There isn't really and ON/OFF button. I mean. Think about that. There is no ON/OFF. No ON/OFF. ON/OFF.

I love just about everything about this vehicle. If is great to be able to do most of my charging for free at work.

The braking seems to require a lot of force on the brake pedal, especially when you are going fast and needing to stop quickly. The charging port door is sometimes difficult to close and has been difficult to open once so far.
