Usually preferred time only, I have struggled to stop charging my ID4 charging ahead of off-peak times. This is the clearest explanation of charging options I have ever seen and is very helpful thanks.

Technically, there is not "Level 3: charging. It is called DC fast charge. Also, why are you at a 350 kwh charger, when you can use a 150 kwh? Everyone should be courteous to use only the power they need!

you can't build that truck differently because of that material they choose

UK VW dealer handover, tick all these boxes on the form and here's the keys - bye.... :D :D I learnt more in this one video than days behind the wheel fiddling - thanks!

That's wild there's an iD.4 pulling a high profile trailer in the background as you are charging, wonder how that is going. You should have interviewed that person, would have been worth adding that video separately somewhere.

I wish I'd found you before we bought our 2024 ID.4 Pro S. I love the car. However, the abbreviated manual sucks... Heck, even the $50 full manual sucks because it does not cover any upgrades to the 2024 version. I'm going to take my tablet out to the car so I can watch and do. Thank you so much for doing these videos.

I’ve just purchased a 2024 ID-4 and am pleased that my wife found this video to begin my learning process. My question is ‘Are there any critical or useful differences between the 2024 and earlier versions of this vehicle?’ Also, have you by any chance produced any other videos on this model that I should watch.

The sad thing is that 5 months after your made this video, you can’t to anywhere from Colorado and have access to a Magic Dock-equipped Tesla Supercharger. There are none in New Mexico, 2 in Texas, none in Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, 1 in Nebraska, none in the Dakotas, Montana, Utah, etc etc. The Magic Dock program has been an enormous bust for Tesla. I assume the reason they are not building any more Magic Docks is because they are waiting for EV makers to switch to the NACS connector, so there is no reason to build any more Magic Docks. Of course, this switchover will take years and meanwhile, none of us with CCS cars in these blank areas will ever get to use a Supercharger.

Well my 15 y.old car can do that, fully automated. Well not the memory thing, but if the spot still exists the next day, it will just park itself again anyway…

Just bought the Disney 100 Platinum Limited Ioniq 5! Can't wait to try out this feature! Love your videos - very helpful - keep them coming!

On Wisconsin

Thanks for the map thing #5

Great video. I should point out that it remained silent on Lane Assist which, when used in conjonction with ACC, is a 'baby Travel Assist.' Lane Assist provides some steering wheel input, while ACC provides the acceleration-deceleration input. Thanks

No way does anybody have a better autonomous system than Tesla! Tesla is light years ahead my good man.

Oh man! My IONIC 5 fob doesn’t have this

Thank you so much. This was great information as I start the adventure of home charging.

The fact that Tesla charging stations do not have LCD screens that try to provide information is surprisingly smart. I wanted to know everything, and I wanted to see it on the charging station. But then I started seeing BUSTED screens, which made me think that the entire charging station was not functional. So good insights by Tesla.

This is a really good video that explains the ID.4 charging scheduling system well. My one question is if you want to charge at off peak hours and battery is low, say 30%…what do you want the Direct Charge 0-50% to be set at to start the charge at off-peak hours? Do you set it to 0 to insure that charging will start at 30% and go to 80% during off-peak? Thanks for your help.

Thank you for sharing very informative

Matt Farah does a great take on the Cyber truck and it's not flattering or practical for a true truck person. The fit and fitment is terrible with many sharp leading edges that can lacerate.

I guess Ford is more practical if you're not doing the road trip often. Cybertruck has better charging infra ( well this is mute since Ford now has access to SCs). faster charging speed, safe to go down to 0%, better adaptive cruise control (when it's released) and better turning radius.

LOL, is see mountain bikes hanging off the tailgate or on a hitch mounted rack, never seen them actually fit in the bed of an F150. Meanwhile I swing mint into the VW GTI with rear seats down 😂

NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR EV SHIT. BOTH VEHICLES ARE GIANT LIBERAL FLOPS!!!!!

You're wise to stick with your Lightning. Tesla has been going south for quite a while. And I'm encouraged that you also drive an Ioniq 5, like I do!

Another tip that I wish I knew. My intermittent windshield wipers did not work in a light steady rain. They wiped once in intermittent and stopped. I found that ypu can turn off the rain sensing function in the vehicle menu. Then,the intermittent wipers worked as in traditional mode. I can live with that.

I love my 2023 ID4, but I had to struggle a bit because my sales rep did not give me any of these crucial tips, and had to figure them out as I went along. Google searches have been a lifesaver, but wish I had found this video earlier. The worst omission is failure to inform new owners about what to do if the charging plug will not release. It happened to me at a public charging station. Thank you for putting this out there.

Ordered mine 2 weeks ago…still waiting for delivery date , hope VW uk don’t let me down

They aren't just minor things, they are practical minded useful things that everybody will make use of. Good video 👍

The Magic Dock equipped Supercharger locations in Montrose and Craig are right next to existing 200 kW ChargePoint DCFC. For our Ioniq 5 the ChargePoint provides a much faster charge and is cheaper.

2021 id4 here; great video, I learned a ton, like the trip odometer! TY

These cars are good if you live in 15 minute cities

I test drove a Mini Ev and liked it and also liked the BMW I3..small ev's are really fun to drive..but I own a Tesla model 3

Great stuff!

This was great!

I am glad I am not the only one that forgets to close the charging door. One of these days I will be taking it off on the side of the garage as I back out.

Great video. One additional question I have is with the user profiles. Selecting a User Profile Every Time you start the car is very Annoying. Can you set a profile so the car doesn’t ask you to confirm the user every time. I’m running 3.1 software so maybe there is an update to fix this or you have a trick to bypass this.

EV vehicles!!! What a joke!! Another major plan to control humanity by the Elites!!! Wake up people!!!!

Very nice job sir. We picked up our ID.4 last Thursday and still figuring out different things. The menu layers are like youtube videos, you can go on forever, and ever, and ever!!!!

Helpful!

Using self park is like handing the keys over to noob driver. I’ve got it on my 23 Pro S Plus and in my experience it will brake hard and suddenly, it feels like it’s hit something. It takes forever and doesn’t instill confidence in its ability.

Hi electric principal. I have an ID4 23 and have issues with OTA. I have received multiple OTA notifications in my id4. I have started the installation process but it never completes. Even brought my car to the dealer. They tried to instal 3.5 update, but they even weren't able to do so. Mentioning that the id4 went through al the steps for installation, but didn't successfully finish the installation. Any thoughts or tips how to fix it? Or manually start the OTA update?

Thanks for doing these excellent, clear videos for someone like me who is brand new to the EV ownership world. I just took possession of my 2024 ID.4 two days ago after learning almost nothing from my salesperson. My car came with a 40 amp charger (that looks exactly like the 30 amp unit in this video). I found out that the 3 free years of Electrify America that she reported to me is actually 500 kWh or 3 years, whichever comes first. So I will be leaning heavily on my home charger.

Enjoyed your video and learned a few things. One thing I disagree with, however: I really like the VW navigation on my ID.4 Pro. I especially love how it never fails to find a good charging station on long trips.

Thank you! That was very helpful.

Does the id4 have the same charging faults of the id3/Cupra Born? Neither of those charge per technical data statements and have a battery safe mode which destroys overnight low tariff charging. Needless to say VW don’t have anything to say about it or any solutions to it.

Love the ID4 videos!

I use travel assist in my golf gte and it’s superb. Do you know if you can upgrade to this if an ID5 doesn’t include it by default

“Have you tried turning it off and on again “ music to my ears 🤣😂😅

That last tip was fantastic! Thank you. Also I wondered why the AC was on when I was heating the car. Thank you!
