Just received notice that VW is increasing MSRP of the ID4 again. And they’re using 2 different batteries that have different charge times:
Dear XYZ,
Getting ID.4 SUVs into the hands of our reservation holders remains a top priority for us. As we navigate supply chain challenges, we’re announcing a few changes to the ID.4 offering.
First, to maintain steady production in the face of shortages, battery components—specifically cells and modules—will now be sourced from two different suppliers for 2023 ID.4 RWD SUVs with 82kWh batteries.
Some of these RWD vehicles will be assembled with battery components from LG Energy Solution, the same supplier used for 2022 ID.4 EVs. Others will be assembled with battery components supplied by SK On.
To find out which company will supply the battery cells and modules for your vehicle, please log in to your My ID.4 Reservation account. Please be aware that the fast charge speed varies for the 82kWh battery depending on its battery components. To go from 10% to 80% at a DC fast charger, it takes the battery with LG components about 36 minutes whereas it takes the battery with SK On components about 30 minutes.
Second, there will be a $1,500 price increase to the MSRP2 for all 2023 ID.4 SUVs assembled on January 4th or later. The updated pricing will not be available on vw.com until January but it is listed below.
ID.4 Trim MSRP
ID.4 Standard $38,995
ID.4 S $43,995
ID.4 Pro $43,995
ID.4 AWD Pro $47,795
ID.4 Pro S $48,995
ID.4 AWD Pro S $52,795
ID.4 Pro S Plus $51,445
ID.4 AWD Pro S Plus $55,245
Please note that the MSRP excludes destination, taxes, title, other options and dealer charges. Your dealer will set the actual price, so we encourage you to start the pricing conversation with your dealer.
January 4th will also be the last day to place a reservation. Though we will no longer be taking new reservations after that date, rest assured that we will honor existing reservations and maintain the reservation system until our dealers have fulfilled the very last reservation.
For more information, please refer to the frequently asked questions available after you log in to your My ID.4 Reservation account. We thank you for your patience and understanding. We will continue to keep you informed, and look forward to getting you into the driver’s seat of your ID.4.
