      @@EVMotoring mostly pretty smooth. Met a slow charging issue on the way back and I have to shift my stop a little bit more. Other than that it was great. Took 2 dogs with me, so stopping every 2 hours is actually pretty good, both letting out the dog and let me stretch, and I don't feel that tired with all the driver assist after all. I'd probably have to sleep in one more day if driving my old ICE car and a lot more tired because it doesn't have all these driver assist. Although the ICE car (both my hybrid and truck can go 600+ miles on a full tank) can go further without stopping, the dogs and I would still need to stop a few times on the road.
      Also the AWD is awesome, never lack any power on the freeway speed. Totally different performance from the RWD after 60mph.

    A tip is to turn off the charging planner when you are not going with its suggestions. That makes it easier then

    I've been doing 700 mile weekends the last few months driving from my place in Maryland to State College, PA now that my son goes to Penn State. I have one EA stop at the mid point that we always stop at, use rest rooms, eat, get drinks, etc.. 20 minutes is the norm and then we roll. It's so easy in the ID.4.

    Why on Earth can't Electrify America fix its damn chargers?? I recently pulled up to 3 different chargers here in AZ and 9/10 units were either broken or just pulled 32-37 KWh!!! Ridiculous.

  • @sjones7986
    @sjones7986 Рік тому +2

    Nice video. The ID.4 fell off my radar due to the early models having so-so infotainment software. I'm curious, what version of software does your car have? Your video pulled this car back into my top 5 next cars.

    • @EVMotoring
      @EVMotoring  Рік тому +1

      No updates for me yet. The software issues seemed to be a car to car kind of issue. Mine would only seem a little sluggish immediately after starting the car if I tried to do too much before letting the car properly boot up

    Curious why you pack water especially in a first world/developed country like the US is it due to contaminated water supplies on the journey? Plus mean less single use plastic as you'd use reusable water bottles. Interesting charging stops but usual EA and other unreliable chargers.

    • @EVMotoring
      @EVMotoring  Рік тому

      Yes unfortunately not everywhere has clean water and some charging stops, especially at night, are closed so I wouldn’t be able to get water either.

    I'm still learning about the different types of chargers, so forgive my dumb question. When you charged at the charge point station, was that level 2 or a DC fast charger?

    • @EVMotoring
      @EVMotoring  Рік тому +1

      That was DC just a slower version than VW can normally accept
