Ok so I got to test drive the new electric Volkswagon ID.4 at the studio this week, and hear me out - while it& #39;s not the most thrilling thing in the world, this is exactly the type of thing we need to start seeing more of for electric vehicles to catch on/take over. (Thread)

So you know how at the end of the Porsche Taycan video I praised them for not taking the easy route and creating an electric version of something they already make? I& #39;ll stand by that for $150K...
BUT that& #39;s actually what regular people WANT to see in their first electric car. Familiarity. And the ID4 has that. It also has:

250 mile range
77kwH accessible battery
125Kw charging
Sub $40K starting price

Tesla is slowly working their way down in price, but nobody is mass producing a GOOD $25K electric YET.

Also I& #39;ve noticed: For as much familiar stuff as this car has, there& #39;s still a few main things EVERY electric car will do different that the world will adjust to:
Regen: The ID.4 has a D gear that drives and coasts like a regular car, but a separate "R" mode that applies regenerative braking through the motors when you take your foot off the accelerator (It& #39;s hard to remember not to say "gas pedal")

This is always better for efficiency https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👍🏾" title="Thumbs up (durchschnittlich dunkler Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Thumbs up (durchschnittlich dunkler Hautton)">

Aero caps. They are always ugly. My god, they& #39;re ugly. But for efficiency& #39;s sake, they& #39;re gonna be come a thing. At least in the beginning. Teslas, Taycans and every efficient car I& #39;ve seen makes some use of them. These here aren& #39;t bad.

Charging: The ID.4 supports 125Kw charging with the Electrify America network. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👍🏾" title="Thumbs up (durchschnittlich dunkler Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Thumbs up (durchschnittlich dunkler Hautton)"> Same as the Taycan. Gonna need that network to continue to grow the same way Tesla& #39;s has, since people need the confidence that they can charge anywhere in a pinch just like gas.

Also don& #39;t charge like this Taycan is, parked across 2 spaces. I get it, it& #39;s a precious car, man. But charging etiquitte is real and this ain& #39;t it, chief https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht">
Noises! Electric cars are basically silent, which actually makes them a little more dangerous in parking lots and slow roads when people can& #39;t hear you coming. So fake noise will be added to new electric cars at low speeds. Here& #39;s the ID.4 fake sound under 20mph
Ok that& #39;s it, thanks for coming to my TED talk. Electric cars are the future. More competition is better for all of us https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⚡️" title="Hochspannungszeichen" aria-label="Emoji: Hochspannungszeichen">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⚡️" title="Hochspannungszeichen" aria-label="Emoji: Hochspannungszeichen">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⚡️" title="Hochspannungszeichen" aria-label="Emoji: Hochspannungszeichen">
