the base model ID.4 was set to start at $40,000, which later went up to $41,230. The company said it wanted its US-made ID.4s to start at $35,000 — or $27,500 with the federal tax credit. Whether that’s still the case, though, is still unknown; the VW spokesperson said pricing will be announced soon.
The cheaper ID.4 will feature a 62kWh battery, as compared to the more expensive 82kWh battery versions that will come with either rear-wheel or all-wheel drive. The 62kWh versions will likely have a more constrained range than the larger battery packs, which enable around 250 miles of range. Initially, the ID.4’s battery pack, which is comprised of 288 pouch cells in 12 modules, was produced by South Korea’s LG Chem. But now, VW is using batteries, another South Korean company that recently opened a $2 billion factory nearby VW’s plant there.
VW is also touting parts made in other US states, including steel in Alabama and Ohio, interior parts in Indiana and South Carolina, and electronics components in Kentucky and North Carolina.
