    Happy New Year Chris and Cindy. For comparison , Just went on a longer trip with my Mach e. It was great used Bluecruse most of the drive, It’s wonderful too. Had a lonely road so I tried to find the top speed in whisper got to 169km In about 7 seconds I had to slow down, but it wanted to keep going. In unbridled it’s a lot crazier. I haven’t found a spot to test it to the limit. Have fun with the iD7!

    Nice review:) I am considering ID.7 myself. I have a question. Currently I am driving Seat Leon which has Travel Assist. The problem I have with that system is that when I am driving on a highway (110+km/h) it often remembers a speed limit that is no longer there and often surprises me with unexpected hard breaking (130->60km/h). This is often dangerous when there is car going behind me.
    Is this a non issue in ID.7 Travel Assist? Or at least much improved?

  • @testi2025
    @testi2025 5 місяців тому +2

    When the TravelAssist does that waking brake, it also pulls the seat belt right after the brake, so it really shakes you.

    Hi. Great video. It looks like that your steeringwheel is a little of center to the left (wheel alignment) All CUPRA Borns that I have driven has that aswell and It gets a little more when Travel Assist is actived.
    Have you noticed?
    How about captivity sensor when driving with one hand on 9-10 o'clock? Have you noticed any dropout. I have it all the time and also after replaced steeringwheel on a CUPRA Born with SW3.2

    Did a test drive with this car today and sadly the whole left side of the wheels touch buttons did not work so was not able to test the cruise control. I hope it wont become a general thing for this not to work.
    Did you have issues with that already?

    This excellent steering feeling is based on a pretty low-end hardware, that the steering machining on MEB cars is actually single-pinion based EPS, which is not only far away from the premium steering machining forms like RD(Rack-Directdrive)-EPS and RP(Rack-Parallel)-EPS, but also lower than the dual-pinion EPS commonly seen at a D-segment car.

    The lack of one-pedal driving is a gaff by VW. If the worry about traction in the snow was the problem then it could have been made unavailable in Snow mode or otherwise like MG4 available only by choice each trip. So big regen gains opportunity missed out by VW

    • @PenFriends
      @PenFriends 2 місяці тому

      It’s semi automatic. Initially you set the travel assist to your current speed, then when it reads the signs it’ll adjust to that speed limit. But travel assist is more about lane entering

  • @jaroslavmichalec138

    • @BatteryLife
      @BatteryLife  5 місяців тому

      It is not about that.
      If the street is narrow, it will pull you towards the middle.
      This is the case on all cars I have tested.
      I don't like that, turned off.
      You don't need it to be cloud based, it sees where the road is.

    One thing that irritates me about my ID.3 and which seems to be fixed in your ID.7 is that I always have to manually switch from ACC to speed limiter every time I want to use it. The Golf I had before remembered unless I hadn't used it for a month or so.

      @BatteryLife great. Thanks.
      I was asking about the heatpump because I think Munro or someone else I watched, found out that VW heatpumps are way less efficient compared to Tesla's. And sometimes they don't make much of a difference. I am not sure if that would be the case with id7 of of course, so that is why I asked.

    Really nice car - but I feel like these VW cars will date very quickly in terms of tech and UX/UI. Like every other electric car, majority are overpriced and lose so much money, far too much to insure due to repairs and the infrastructure just isn’t there.
    This should’ve launched as an ID car model - but this and the `vow camper are already outdated.
