The best chef of all wives. Not in the kitchen or indoors – but on the passenger seat and literally: ‘Our’ 1-Year Electrical Endurance Tester Volkswagen ID.4 GTX Not a friend of the summer heat. If you leave the driver’s seat to ask something, he wants to be smart and off. The rest of the passengers are then grilled on the spot due to the lack of air conditioning. How often start the ignition and ventilation? It only works if you remember to press Air Conditioning Immediately on the screen. Or use the app. Otherwise nothing breathes – uncomfortable at 30 degrees.
In addition, there has been some kind of heat stroke recently when driving on a slope with a fully charged battery. The display says “Your car is getting too hot and is therefore automatically air-conditioned”. before you say “Okay?” He could think that the heater starts blowing warm air and turns off the climate control. The only solution to avoid sunstroke: Open the window – as before. After all, the effect that had occurred three times disappeared after a minute or two. VW says: A safety function that reduces power gained on slopes that cannot be stored in a full battery by powering consumers – and just one thing for the older software version. This update should remove this in the future.
This help makes sense
Other than that, the top-of-the-line sporty style ID.4 It has always been a very popular companion for auto editors – even over long distances. For example, because their assistance systems are really good. Example: ID.4 itself starts slowing down in time in front of the communes and optimally restores electricity until it drives at exactly 50 km / h at the place name sign – ideal, and if you don’t want to, you can easily overtake it by tapping the gas pedal.

Relaxation is also the order of the day in the GTX. Incredibly spacious rear, comfortable seats, quiet running, very comfortable suspension and still a lot of driving pleasure, for example on mountain trails: everything is perfect – unlike the improvements Start lame infotainment. Anything but slack is a very smooth 299 hp (220 kW) four-wheel drive. Great driving performance With only three or four francs of electricity (when charging at home) per 100 km – the GTX is a hot guy here.
Mostly more than 370 kilometers
The crucial question for all electricians remains: How far can a family SUV go? Mostly over 370 kilometers – reliable and almost independent of terrain, winter cold or summer cold. Good this way! In numbers: So far there has been a minimum of 311, a maximum of 518 kilometers and an average of 386 kilometers. Our initial critique of the related elegant skoda For the faltering charging power of today’s electronic meter (AC / DC 11/125 kW), we have to, as in GTX Endurance Test Kick-off Report Put it in perspective: It fits into everyday life.
Just like the entire GTX, which starts at CHF62,500. In the GTX, electricity is completely normal, and electricity has landed in everyday life. Those of us who have returned to a combustion-engine test car are suddenly alarmed by the noise and faintness of starting, the rough running and shifting vibrations, the burning of expensive fuel and exploding exhaust fumes. We’re curious about the outcome of the software update that VW is now offering with our ID 4: Then there should be more charging power for faster infotainment.
