I have been driving my id5 max full tec pack for 6 months now and is brilliant. Better comfort, better build and riding quality and more quiet than model x I had previously. DCC is great. I tested range with temp between -2 - 6 degree and with heat pump, no eco mode, no air con but auto air mode. I get average 2.4 miles/kwh, around 200 miles mixed motorway and city in UK. That is great consider it only has 77 kw battery. I get 3.5 - 4 miles/kwh, 260 miles mixture use in summer. Software is currently on 3.0 and has slow response but really doesn't bother me because I only probably spend 2% of my time use it and rest of the time driving. Full driving assist is similar to auto pilot on Tesla and works brilliantly, personally I feel safer in ID5 than model x when auto pilot mode is engaged. Not many ID5 max is around in the UK at the moment and hope my 6 months driving experience could contribute to the EV community.
I've come to appreciate the haptic buttons on the steering wheel. Their main advantage is swiping. You don’t need to look down or fidget when you swipe. Simplicity. It took me a while to realize how swiping adjusts ACC cruising speed or sound volume or skips songs. You just swipe your thumbs across the middle of those panels , effortless - no need to look down or find the right buttons. It’s a pity those buttons are misunderstood. Coupled with AR-HUD, I never need to take my eyes off the road.
thank you Bjorn for all details about the GTX which you can only get on your channel.
I like how it will bring you to a stop even if you don’t have the travel assist autosteer enabled. Most other systems that will bring you to a stop need the full autosteer to be enabled.
The system name is Travel Assist, with it turned off it uses lane assist like all other ID without travel assist. But at least on mine(id3 1st plus) since I don't have travel assist if I don't touch the steering wheel after it warns me it disengages lane assist... Might be that only with travel assist it continues to stay on or might be something related to software 3.0...
Haha, the side remark about the warnings in Korean cars.. I drive a Kona Electric and it's sometimes hilarious. If you drive on a smaller road with lots of bends but you can see enough to be able to drive a straighter path using all of the road, the car will inevitably show you a symbol with a cup of coffee and tell you a break is needed... (it thinks you're falling asleep).
Volkswagen 💖
Looks like VW is getting more confident and better at their EV designs. Looks like they are going to survive the EV revolution although I am not sure if they will stay at the top.
VW being on top has a lot to do with them buying up as much as possible. They have made brands like Skoda and Seat big for example, but quality and design wise they are just okay and tend to age very quickly i.e. looking like hey have been out for ages. Especially if you compare their prices (at least here in Holland) to Korean or Japanese brands where you get tons more value for (usually) less or similar money. A Japanese car will go on forever and with the same maintenance a VW will get you about 250k kms before it starts becoming too expensive to keep.
@@rickjamesb. with fossil cars - yes, electric should last longer
Great video as always! Will you also do one for the Enyaq Coupe RS? Please do it next!
When it comes to the actual display panels VW's display is way more touch sensitive than Tesla's. I have used it with leather gloves without any issues. Tesla's display didn't work at all even with very thin gloves (Model 3).
Love this car. If only they would make better infotainment/software i would totally buy this
@@KDR816 or just ignore it, it plays music and you have climate controlls, who needs more? you need navigation maybe once a month and your phone is fine for that.
Wireless Carplay, mice drop….
@@peternystrom921 im talking about camping mode etc not apple CarPlay and stuff like that. And why would drop mice?

Nice review. I would get the id.4 instead of the id.5 since the latter do not have the ability to carry roof load.
Oh good tip, thanks for that I wasn't aware
yes it can, it has different mounting
Waiting for this to come to Canada. We will not get the GTX models but the Pro models with similar content I believe. Great over of the car and it’s features.
No ID5 in Canada, you need to buy the Audi version. Once again, we don’t get to have any fun…
Great reviews and information on this vehicle. You are always so comprehensive. Great!
Interesting, in Austria you can only get the id5 gtx (also 4motion) with the 77kwh battery.
ลงคลิปช่องไทย เยอะๆนะครับ ชอบดู เหมือนได้ไปเที่ยวเลย ติดตามทัง 2 ช่องครับ
Will you be testing the first id.4 gtx with the 12 v battery upgade and new software, to see what the difference is???
Thanks for a great Channel.
I'm sad that 1) the ID5 isn't available in my country (Canada) and 2) those amazing taillights aren't available on the ID4 in North America. 🙁
@@davidsixtwo I know right? ID3 would also be popular in Canada.
But you guys will get the ID.Buzz and Aero.B/ID.6
Interior accent lighting is the new piano black - sort of annoying
The lights can fortunately be turned off, unlike piano black.
I think both the ID.4 and ID.5 are great cars, but they are too dam expensive. I dont know how VW plan to ship these in insane numbers when the price of a standard ID.5 in Ireland is €61k!! The Ionic 5, which is a similar size as the ID.5 starts at €39,995, €21k cheaper!
The shift to EV will also lead to a shift to lease rather than ownership, especially if service, tyres, insurance etc are all thrown in as a lot of lease providers do already. At that point, the cost of monthly payments is the only thing that will matter to the consumer.
Lease companies will buy in bulk at huge discounts and recoup residual value when they sell the vehicles on to the secondhand market, so they can afford to keep costs just low enough to tempt people away from full ownership.
@@nrml76 the cost of leasing still depends on the overall cost of the car. For PCP on the cheapest VW, which has a heat pump and paid extra (ridiculous). Deposit needed is 30% so €17k, then €568 pm for 3 years, then a further €24k remaining balance to pay off afterwards.
Monthly payments for cheapest Ionic 5 is €328 with a €14k deposit
I think the RWD version has a smaller turning circle - because the lack of CV joints on the front half shafts.
yes, that's true !
ID.5
Looks like a lot of good EV options now, with different small shortcomings, but no clear winner, that gets everything right.
How much do you save in energycosts during a 5 year timespan id.4 vs id.5 ? Does it really matters?
Brilliant review and nails what this car is all about
60 k Euros in Greece before EV incentives (8 k Eur).
Oh cool, so it’s then 68k€ in Finland 😜
It's good to see improvement in the VW team. Still laggy, though.
You get more regen if you lightly press the brake pedal. But it's no one-pedal driving
Much quieter than the Model Y I believe, at least from the videos
I think that is no surprise as Tesla cars are very noisy !
Your are not holding the indicator long enough for the auto lane change
will harder regen degrade battery more than low regen?
Good question
No. But coasting when you can will give slightly longer range.
Technically yes. But it is such a small factor compared to other things (like DC charging or high SOC) that it really does not matter.
Yet another really nice ev that probably won't be available in Australia ever, and even if it was I won't consider because I will never deal with my local VW dealership ever again
Well you are a tiny ray of sunshine.
I like this id5 i think it's a good car ibheard that VW is gonna do a sedan
ID 6 is coming in 2023-24, but it is a much bigger car .
Bjorn. What app you use on your phone on your windscreen. Please.
As he drives away we see an Ioniq 5 on the back of the truck. 😉. Yoooo what's uppppp cough cough lung lost. 😝
No ID 5 for Canada. And they stopped delivering the ID4 3 months ago. I haven't even seen it on the road yet, only one at the dealership when somebody's sold car was sitting in the dealership.
Prices in Canada.
ID4 AWD top trim. 58k
EV6 AWD top trim 62k
Ioniq 5 AWD top trim 62k
Audi Q4 AWD top trim 70k
Model Y AWD 87k. All of the cars get a 5k dollar rebate except the Model Y. Not sure why anybody would buy the Tesla. 22k more than a Q4?? 34k more than a ID4 AWD??? That's crazy.
Re: that safety screen warning. Maybe it has a sensor for the passenger seat and if there's no passenger it knows it's the driver being distracted.
Do you believe ID5 pro will do 1000 km in less then 10hours ?
Is this battery going to be available in the US? Also curious if the efficiency will improve for ID4 also or this is a GTX specific number.
sorry to say but I find the designs of ID.3 to ID.5 so... outdated, conservative.
They don't inspire like the Hyndai ioniq 5 or 6, the Kia EV6 or other latest Chinese brands like BYD, Nio, Geely... VW has missed the boat.
Goofy truck style cup holder binnacle. All cup holders need covers. Does it still have that need USB plug on the rear view mirror?
One more thing, ever hear a broadcaster cough on the air? There's a good reason for that. Guess what it is?
Hey, when will you drive the new Renault Megane e-tech???
Has Bjorn test driven/charged the Lucid Air yet? Does anybody know?
Hi. Bjorn. What app you use on your phone please. Thank you.
Too much noisy tires right?
What app is it you use on your phone ?
Car Scanner
Ok, I need to ask now. I'm watching Bjorn for a long time now and he uses a lot of german words, which is funny, don't understand me wrong. But why does he do that? And can peaple understand the context who are not familiar with the german language?
He has some German roots and in Scandinavia people will be able to understand those few words as the languages are closely related.

I'm your age and have always had German cars and especially VW and MB. My last fossil car was the VW Touareg. Then I also had a VW e-golf. So I bought a new Tesla model 3 which was so incredibly good even though it is an American car that I never thought I would buy. Bought model 3 because it was not possible to buy model Y in early 2021. Now I have got Tesla model Y and have tried VW Id 4 and Id5 and as you say VW is more comfortable but Tesla much more sporty. Tesla is also more practical and as you say regarding charging with only 1 AC compressor, everyone else charges much slower. Even though Germans are trying to catch up with Tesla, they are unfortunately far too far behind. I may be like you a little above average concerned with technology and how the car is designed and works in daily life. Of course always drives with Scan my tesla but also drove with other OBD dongles on German cars. xd Will probably not be able to switch to another brand even if this ID5 looks nicer than Tesla :)
It has fossil sound of the interior.
They did a great job, but I prefer the Volvo C40 or XC40 anytime.
It‘s that all. but not s3xy 😜
A truck load of ioniq 5
the whole driving part of the video is out of focus.
total lack of innovation. never going to buy a vw
Happy to see legacy automakers upping their game, esp. considering the shitty quality of Tesla
Honestly this id5 is a pointless model for badge snobs , instead of yhis I would go down the skoda enyaq sports back model (the id5 equivalent) first off cheaper,better made, and better overall package
The only ding, dong, beep is the super loud side indicator click ... that would drive me nuts! I'm surprised you don't review the software and dashboard capabilities more of these cars. There's a reason that VW is underperforming in China. The Chinese are more tech oriented and the Germans have fallen behind on the tech side.
The ID series look like grandpa cars to me (very Buickesque). The inside is equally crappy with tiny old fashioned screens and fonts, sounds, capabilities. From a performance standpoint it's a boat anchor.
