- The ID line might be the most important thing to happen to VW since the Beetle, and this ID is only available in China (for now).

“Because the marketing department is made up of teenagers from the 90s.” Funny comment from a dude wearing a Fanny pack.
Jajaja
Bro THE ROCK EXISTS
Please bring it to the US, definitely a winner. The Tesla model X is unattainable for most US buyers, that ID 6 if priced right, should take those coustomers. I will sell my Model Y.
Well said
That’s what the model Y is for.
@@OnTheRailwayOfficial it is larger than the model Y, I have one so I know.
Mustang mach e or me
You cannot get this German can, in GERMANY!!! it would take a while
That interior is really nice. In Europe, the ID range seems to only come with cheap looking cloth interiors. Also, you're either a small man or the ID.6 is bloody massive.
It’s a pretty large crossover actually I was surprised seeing it in person. Feels much larger than the Id4
It looks much better in my opinion
Many reviews neglect to mention their height when sitting in the car. Knowing that is critical to make any meaning judgement when comparing the space and how well people fit in it.
Sounds like Wheelboys caught a Cold and Powered through the Review 😂
Or his been karaoke-ing all night..
😁😁😁
Covid, probably 😜
Snifing
that's how all vaccinated sound at some point, they get sick like that
Exactly what the US market needs. Will VW build them in Chattanooga?
VW will build the ID 4 in Chattanooga but not the ID 6
Same platform as the id4 which is being built there so it's likely. Id6 not confirmed for the US yet but it has been suggested by the head of marketing and you could see it selling well so makes sense.
@@sidonronaldinho8713 At least not yet 😉.
Soon.
Volkswagen will be releasing their Passat sized sedan to the US market for 2024, so will probably be released in Q3 or Q4 of 2023. This was the concept sedan they showcased in 2018 called the ID.Vizzion this will be called the ID.6. The US will get this Chinese ID.6 albeit with differences it will be sold in the US as the ID.4 XL and should be released in 2022, if the information I have is correct✌️
Thanks for this video! I can't wait to see a NIO ET7 video from you!
Would have been nice to start doing reviews of multiple cars at the same time... we want to see which models compare to it.
In defence of VWs decision reference the two missing rear window switches, this solution is better. I don’t know how many time I’ve gone to top down my front window and rolled down the rear ones instead, making you have ti look at the buttons briefly while driving. It’s far easier to hit that “rear” button and then use the same two switches. Once you get the hang of it, you wonder what you ever did without it.
No one else believes that except you. In no way is less, and two steps instead of one, better.
Impressive that the best models are China only, all the extended models could be sold in the rest of the world.... Great video as always!
Well it will be. That said three row SUVs really mostly sell in the US not Europe.
I love my ID4 but my only complaint is it is a bit small. I would love it if VW brought these to the US.
Small? For a European car, the ID.4 is a big car.
@@kavelab699 for american its small
来中国买id6吧，🤣
Excellent honest review as always.
Passive safety does set the ID.6 apart from its competitors at the moment. There was a crashtest comparing Model Y and ID.6 with quite good results. While i don't mind the interior (only sat in an ID.4 so far) this would probably reach the masses better with a full leather interior from Passat or similar models...
It was an id.4 not ID.6. Model Y also does not compete with this without a usable third row.
despite its hideous front, this would do just fine in Europe, where we don't have electric SUV 7 seaters at all. My advice to VW is not to wait for the competition to breach first.
From Europe, I say : You are right it's Ugly !!!!! and the big problem with VW an id 1,2, 3, 4.5, ,,,,,,6, 7 ,.....8 etc.....
Vw not for Me !!!!! I never forget the Diesel gate !!!!!
I appreciate your objectivity and honest opinion. Most reviewers just simply like everything and every new car is "perfect".
so is it the same gross 6.7" ground clearance like on the iD4? they need to lift and and make it able to do off road stuff.
Hey great job with the video. Any chance of testing drive a Zeekr 001 any time soon?
VW will sell a bunch of these in the US 🇺🇸 market. We Americans love our big vehicles
A lot of Americans want the VW ID.3 like we’ve got in Britain which surprised me, because like you said Americans love their big cars! I wouldn’t be surprised if the ID.6 ended up being built at Volkswagen Chattanooga alongside the ID.4 and ID.5!🤟
American here, we do like big cars, but I hope ID.4's price drops; it's one of the best EV's that I've seen & I hope to own one someday.
@@Tallguy2026 you expect cars like Tahoe expedition sequoia
I would love a classic review of the classic SAIC Volkswagen Santana or the FAW Volkswagen Jetta models
Have you driven either Audi etron 50/55 or Zeekr 001 AWD lately? Both cars have air suspension. I strongly recommend that you test drive the latter. The VW ID.6 Prime 4WD has DCC active electromagnetic suspension if I am not mistaken. How did it feel?
Why it's not sold in USA and Europe .i love it.
It will be sold in the US. Europe doesn’t buy many three row SUVs though.
This is the best looking vw branded car I’ve seen.
I do wish that this was available in the US. I would gladly trade in my id.4 1st edition for it :-)
VW would be complete idiots to not bring this model to the US
Wheelie guy: "I often find myself searching for commonly used features in the menu"
Car: ㊗️🉐️㊙️🈲️
Wish the touchscreen display was connected and long to take full advantage of the maps and CarPlay display it gives it a cleaner look to me. This display that vw Id keeps pushing especially in that cream color is one of the many reasons I keep looking at other ev’s
I wish the ID4 (in my country) had the 360 surround cameras this has 😓
Is there any adjustment in the middle seats? Ie. Front/rear/recline?
thanks for posting this, we have id.4,saw id.5 and upcoming id.7,so i always wondering where id.6 goes 😂😂😂
Hey, is there an English manual for the ID.6? Can the screen be changed from Chinese to English?
According to Wiki, the dimensions of this are pretty much the same as the full size Etron, which basically confirms that car will be discontinued and become the Audi Q6.
which version will be brought to other parts of the world? ID6 Crozz or ID6 X?
Hope your sore throat gets better!
How can one activate the car outside China , I got the id6 in a deferent country but can create a user :-/ any ideas?
作为ID4车主，Volkswagen 这次干的不错！除了没有办法APP启动车辆和锁车。
Id4 looks work for a 3 row but not for a 2 row. I love the id6 and id4 over any Tesla
The interface and software is a deal breaker for me. Esp They don’t have over the air updates.
@@gazlives What makes you think they dont have over the air updates? Despite the glitches and quirks it's still ahead of other legacy OEMs who can only update infotainment at best. Also, some time early next year there will be app support for Spotify and Apple Music with version 3. No need for car play then.
@@evboy4287 is it by Wifey or Bluetooth?
@@evboy4287 reports from owners are that they aren't 'gitches' but over air updates doesn't work.. not surprising as VW isn't a software company and is trying to catch up in this respect.. it does realise this at least
@@gazlives That is not true and by now they’ve greatly updated it too. It’s totally fine now.
Beautiful wheels while in motion
Why continous VW with ID family without rear discbreaks? I don´t understand...
does anyone have an idea how to charge the car quickly in germany
so beautiful
Great video thanks.
Would you guys consider reviewing a Buick Verano Pro GS? It's a very attractive sedan, so I'm curious about what it's like
How about new BYD Yuan plus, thanks
@6:05 Looks like I did that seam sealer! 😯😁
How i can connect the application?
I test drive the ID6x, then I bought a ID4x. The cushion length is way too long for me. ID6x is great for people over 1.75m and above, for people under 1.75m, it is better to have an extra cushion between back and back support.
the cushion of ID3 and ID6X both are much longer than the ID4X's. Too many Chinese vehicle reviewers complaint lots of cars have no knee support because of the their cushion are too short. Why people need knee support from from the seat cushion? Many health organizations recommend that it is better to have two finger space between knee and edge of seat cushion. The cushion length of ID3 is so so stupid, it is longer than the ID4x's, but ID3 is a much smaller car.
What is the beautiful piano music at 6:07 called?
Ha - yes. I thought this, too.
This could replace the Touran in the UK. If only they bring it
great, thanks
I understand there were economical reasons that lead to the decision to build this model in China. I personally find it a failure the fact they don't build and sell it to the european market. It's very attractive to young families, given the extra-boot capacity and the extra seats. I honestly would have ordered it, as this would have been basically the only 7-seater e-SUV available on the German market. It's a pity.
I don’t see how such a large car would be attractive at all in Europe. You would have a nightmare finding parking (it doesn’t even seem to fit in the parking spot they are showcasing it on), it’s almost impossible to drive a large car in small European roads outside of a highway etc.
A truck that big would be very impractical for the vast majority of families in Europe.
The US market is truly sad, not only we don't get all the models, the models we get even gets features removed.
@@lobaxx that's rather a cliche. Of course Ford F-150s have a hard time in small, old towns, but cities have usually wide boulevards. Country side generally is not problematic to SUVs or trucks, quite the contrary. There's a wide range of 7-seaters that sell well, because of their practicality, like Skoda Kodiaq, Peugeot 5008, Mercedes V-Klasse, Audi Q7, just to name a few.
@@Jawssalamalecu this id6 looks exactly as big as 5008 from this video.
Please give us a tour of the BYD E-SEED GT. I think it's the best looking yet to be announced car that will arrive to the market soon.
Will you guys be at the GuangZhou Auto Show？
How many km can drive per one char
Can you please tell us what the competitors are you keep talking about? How many three row EVs are there even competing with this?
I agree with you and also would like to know. I bought this ID6 X and I'm very satisfied with it. I have looked at many other EV's, but at this moment I haven't seen another car with a similar price, similar range and similar inside space.
nio, xpeng, byd, etc.
@@sergeikorolev922 Nio doesn't have a car in that price range that is so big (Based on the ID6 first edition, with rear wheel: Price 268.000 RMB (after subsidies) and a range of 580km NEDC) and with that range (for similar range you pay for the ES6 almost 150.000 RMB extra) Xpeng doesn't have a 7-seater SUV and not similar range (they will have next year, but not available yet). BYD has indeed an SUV, but this is hybrid and not fully electric and not as big as the ID6. Tesla Model Y is also not 7-seat, lower range and more expensive, so at this moment there's not really something like this on the market to compete with the ID6.
@Jacky Liu But those cars are not really competitors of the ID6. Hongqi E-HS9 starts at a 509800 RMB and the ES8 (if you want 580km NEDC range, like the ID6) is 526000 RMB, which means you can almost buy 2 ID6's for the same amount as one of the others. BYD Tang is a PHEV, so I think the Xpeng G9 would be the closest to a competitor, but it's not available yet and I assume that the G9 will be around 20% more expensive.
@Jacky Liu OK, I indeed didn't know about the BYD Tang electric, but would be interesting to see how it would be compared to the ID6. VW has indeed been very aggressive with their pricing and I was also amazed that they offered this big SUV for a very good price.
@Wheelsboy You are mentioning there are cheaper and better quality alternatives. Which are they?
There are hybrids but not EV at the moment.
I don't understand why they didn't bring the id 6 to the US. You would think they would, Knowing that Americans like big vehicles. Thanks for the awesome video.
It has utility but Americans want more. Especially for that price. This vehicle is not special in any way, form, or fashion.
The material quality of the ID line doesn't make sense to me for the prices they are asking for them.
I hope we see this model in the EU and US.
Could you do a review on a Chinese Market specific Mercedes G-Class W463 with a small 2.0T engine? That would be a good contrast from the ones sold in other markets.
chinese got no other options for the engine due to some laws,no one like this 2.0 engine in G but have to accept
I know it's not relevant to the video but this is the first video I've seen from this channel and this guy is really cute. Just saying. 😂 🤣
It's in Nigeria already, via car continental
I think this will be more popular amongst normal consumers than a tesla in the USA... Don't get me wrong, Tesla's will always remain famous... they're the one who started everything, after all. But... Getting EVs from legacy automakers, like Ford or VAG here, people will feel better.... That they're getting better quality stuff... which they are.
But this ID.6 ... and the ID.4... looks too similar for my taste... ID.4 is good looking but...U know..We don't want copy cats models like one car company.. Cough cough *BMW* cough
But this should come to the US... people love their once-in-a-while-use-for-tiny-kids-during-emergencies (or of course, soccer practice or baseball practice pickup of neighbours and friends....) third row, like in the Mistubishi Outlander, or the Kia Sorento, etc..
ID4/5/6 are sister cars like Tiguan/Tiguan X(a coupe version of Tiguan may only available in China) and Tiguan L(or Tiguan Allspace)
Look similar isnt bad,juat consider it as a 6/7 seats version of ID4.
Just curious why VW dont sell this car in US market since the ID6 is close size to the Altas
…..
This is only VW i want..but i am in europe and in my country ID4 start at 50000 euro which is almost 60000$
Why are these vehicles cheaper in the Chinese market?
感谢分享～
¿Porqué sigue VW con la familia ID sin discos traseros?
No lo entiendo...
I got one in Jordan (grey market)
4:10 Four windows deserve four buttons. With no option to correct this obvious mistake, VW needs to listen to customers. Build what we want and we will buy. I hate aerodynamic windshield slant so far back you hit your head getting into this vehicle. Large people need a large opening to get in. Please make the opening bigger. Level beltline, level roof line, ground clearance, a large rear window, and cargo capacity is what we utilitarians want. Is that so hard for aero dynamic wind tunnel worshipers to understand?
First question everybody asks when they hear about a new EV: what's it's range?
@@roy.konings First and last thing people do when operating a vehicle, get in and get out.
I must say it looks nice from the outside but it has the same BS cockpit like all other ID´s. I often drive the ID3 via sharing and the handling or controlling of the vents or anything else is quite dangerous while driving. But that also applies to everyone else, where I have to operate everything from one screen. looks great but the function ... the eyes belong on the street.
So what does a wheelsboy store in his fanny pack? Cookies and a juicebox?
Bring it to US asap please
4:30 Totally dumb cost cutting there but Volkswagen likes to eliminate buttons no matter the how frustrating it gets to use the car. Thats said, some elements in this ID.6 look much more upscale than the euro ID3/4 we get elsewhere. Just need to get rid o that aweful piano black trim...
Drink whenever Wheelsboy says 'Quite'
This is a wow model ID6..
I'm really liking the direction of the VW interiors. Honestly, I still remember about 10 years ago, their exteriors were pretty decent, but their interiors were so dark and boring. I feel like the past 4-5 years they've really gotten a lot better and less boring
Going? But how long before they get there. They've made improvements in materials but only marginally. Meanwhile you have carmakers such as Hyundai and Kia that are still a step above that. What the Koreans lack is VW more refined driving characteristics. However, the average car buyer may not look far enough to recognize or care about that lead.
Bring us leapmotor c11
What hight are you so I can gage it , visually
“good" is more than enough. Chinese consumers are used to buying crap at 2-4 times of US prices. In fact the Alphard MVP goes for 5-6 times in China (around USD30K in Japan and around $160,000 in China).
I love you wheelsboy
Price
Electric car super👌 future
This car would do great in the US.
Not at that price. Maybe at 10 grand cheaper.
Would love to consider this car(I love my ID4), when available in the US.
Let us know when it's not made in China.
Why this is not coming to USA? Americans love big SUV/Crossovers
American also like to see and feel where their money is going. That's the reasons why the Koreans are doing so well. Both Kia and Hyundai focus on material that you can see and touch. In that, this brand does not deliver.
I’m sure the U.S. spec model will have an all black interior because that’s what today’s American buyers want.
I’m pretty it’ll have several options, just like the id.4.
that thing is massive
You must not be from 'round here (U.S.)?
Only available in China 😢😢😢..doesn't help me down here in OZ ....I've been waiting to drive an electric VW...we HAVE NONE😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
I might not be as good as other cars, but it will sell, because it‘s German, what is still a big selling point in many countries.
Btw they have imported these to my country for a while now. Over here they cost €50k, honestly a bargain for an electric 7-seater Volkswagen SUV
Why does this car remind me of the old tiguan?
that car will sell for no les than $60K here in the States. the ID4 sells from mid $40K and only goes up from there. VW can not sell the ID6 for within $10 to 15K of the ID4
Rumor has it, the map to the lost city of Atlantis is in his fanny pack
No storage under the hood
I thought this was Mick Shumacher
Looks good but small range,skipping it
The bare minimum for me is 300mi. If it can't do that I don't even consider it a viable alternative to ICE. Would definitely consider it if it came with the 300hp turbo 4.
ID series has beautiful cars, except for their software problems. Munro live shows some its problems. Björn Nyland had nice comparison video of 1000Km time.
I'm pretty sure this review warrants the fanny pack.
Dis
3 big in US: We hate competitors.
Is there a reason for the fanny Pack? I'm honestly asking.
Because it’s great, and thank you for asking!
To be honest, I wondered whether it's for an insulin pump.

Its different from VW normally
