Here in the U.K., that cost per kWh (165 NOK) equates to 14pence so basing my calcs on 3 miles per kWh, 10,000 miles would require 3,333 kwhs of energy in a typical year, that’s £465 per annum, assuming you charged on ionity all the time, which most private owners won’t.

Another great video Bjørn. One thing on the cost though; the prices are skewed towards IOnity but should of course also reflect the NoK 147 / €14 monthly charge. Depending on km / month the prices will be harmonised with the other chargers (and still be more expensive than Tesla),
I'm really tempted to get the Enyaq 80 plus, to me it looks like the best compromise. getting the best of VW group MEB platform at cheaper prices and access to Ionity at better rates, and also. I'm really not keen on the Tesla Tax (like iphone tax) where you pay for the top of the line/design. especially when i don't completely agree on many of the design choices of their cars. (I'm not a minimalist, so really dont like the deal with having to use the screen for everything. i like dedicated buttons for and i dont like being a betatester of software controlling essential functions of a vehicle going at motorway speeds.
There is no surpirse to expect. Its heavy...its a SuV. It might roll out with advanced Software from start. The biggest fail with MEB is the Winterscenario and the user can not do anything about it other than a warm garage.
@@Mikael.Andersen good points, i do think a lot of the extra tesla price is import taxes and transport costs, I wouldn't be surprised if the MY from Brandenburg is alot cheaper than the imports.
Very nice review Björn 👌 thank you. It's kinda of funny how you are more sensitive to what you eat and drink. Your viewers are concerned about your well-being. Keep up the good work bro 💪 🙏 By the way, almost 120€ charging for 2100 km. It is kinda of expensive 🤔
The ID4 has camp-mode! I have an ID4 myself and have slept in it with it activated :-D And it does not take as much energy as Bjørn experienced, since it does not light up the screen or lights.
It is called "Stationary air conditioning" and is operated eg through the main screen when the car is tuned off. It appers where the seat-heating icons normally are displayed.
I've sat in both the ID4 and Enyaq side-by-side and ended up ordering the Skoda Enyaq. Same power train but a much higher quality interior and more kit for your money. Also in my opinion an overall nicer looking car.
Is there any perceptible difference in trunk size? I know enyaq has better official numbers but i don't know if it's so much of a difference. Thanks in advance!
@@arbinekotxikie from what I can remember both cars had very similar impressive boot space but the Enyaq looked large to the eye. The shape of the boot seemed better / squarer and it also had a flat floor to edge.
In Finland ID.4 and Enyaq cost about the same, but Enyaq is way more configurable. For example you can have ID.4 1st / Family level accessories plus Travel Assist (for about 300 EUR extra). I took that option. I remember Bjørn said that Travel Assist was the only thing he missed from 1st Max after driving lower budget 1st.
@@bjornnyland it depends on what options you choose with the Enyaq. But when I priced the ID4 Tech next to the Enyaq with almost all of the options available included the Enyaq was around 30 000 sek cheaper. Skoda gave me a good discount to close the sale as well.
The ability to sleep in a car overnight while heating the interior is one of the main functions I'm waiting for in an EV. Mind you i only want a van based car so I'm looking forward to the new Kangoo MPV EV. It has to have a similar spec as the Zoe though or I won't be buying.
I’ve calculated that if you left 100% Smartphone unattended while you went to the restroom at a UK service station, you would definitely have 0% Smartphone on return from the restroom. 😄
so tempted to toss the Q7 for an AWD ID4... not liking the +$5k just to have premium self leveling cornering headlights like the Q7 has though. grrr. Mach-e though... sigh...
Late to the VW party as ruled them out due to dodgy software and interiors, but giving the facelifts serious consideration. Really intrigued by your top buffer calculation, which shows same top buffer size as my e-Niro... but I understand these cars degrade capacity while the Niro still has is 64kWh useable after over 3 years. Why are the VWs degrading range? Do they not sacrifice top buffer, or is it theore aggressive charging curve? Or something else? You've not done a degradation test on an old Niro - maybe because they don't? Would love to see a video on that because with the possible exception of MG the Korean 400V cars seem fairly unique in this.
I spent about 10 minutes in the ID4 and immediately reached to conclusion I#d have ordered one over the Model 3 if it was available in 2019. However, that's only because I think more work has gone into it than the ID3.
@@SamuraiTacos1 Yea, but without plug and charge and really reliable network, I cant recommend or buy them. For me a good EV has has a perfect charging network. VW/Audi/Porsche agree and build a own "supercharger network" now.
16:28 "Volkswagen claims to have enabled battery heating when navigating to a known fast charger." That aged well. No ID before MY2024 and ID Software 4.0 has any preheat of battery before charging and will only ever heat the battery up to 0°C with the latest software update 3.2, but can now charge with up to 175kW in perfect conditions. Would be interesting to see a comparison of the 2024 ID.4 and an updated 2021 model.
Couldnt agree more with you regarding the noise - Old school bikes I can deal with, but newer noisey 'super bikes' and anyone who modifies their car exhausts to make them louder can catch Covid as far as I am concerned xD
Biggest flaw with Id4 is rear headroom. I had to cancel my order just because none of us men in our family (me and my two teenage boys) who are about 1,90 m long can fit in the rear seat without scrubbing our heads against the roof. Who was all that rear legroom meant for? People with really long legs and dwarfed torsos?
I would register at EPCPLC or if you plan a longer trip maybe get an autopass chip, many toll roads are free or you get a discount, ferries will cost 50%
Why the battery in evs are not isolated. I mean for cooling, there is a coolant, anyway, and what is the effectiveness of air-cooling in summer anyway. But heating it results more energy storage. So isolated battery should be more efficient? What do you think guys.
Does not the heat pump work only when the car is travelling? When it is stopped and only air conditioning works, then I do not think heat pump matters.
VW hat da gute Arbeit geleistet, sowohl mit dem ID3, als auch mit dem ID4. Ne Menge ist sicher über Softwareupdates in den Griff zu kriegen, das Grundkonzept passt!
@@e-redj I am not saying they won't do it, just that it will be very difficult. VW isn't a software company and they don't even make their own software yet. But if they can execute on 12 week OTA intervals then that is a feather in VW's cap.
Hi, according to the Polish VW site the biggest battery pack is 77KWH. Is it a matter of net/gross capacity info or it's a different version than the 82kwh you are testing?
It would be even more great to start building low wind friction cars like station wagons. Going in a SuV as BEV is not the right Box...its a huge mistake
Already did it. But it's not enough (already shown in the video). You have to be both buckled up and have weight on the seat. Trust me. I have tried everything.
13:55 the sound of the bike is not annoying for me, that eargsm for me, but for you is annoying. Fossil and electric for car or bike is nice. I like both. No hate..
The charging speed you are getting would be dreamland a few years ago. Part of the reason I sold my Zoe is because the 22kw max rate would be very out of date in a year or two.
What are your needs vs what are your wants. Me I chose the ID.4. The AWD model of the ID.4 costs less than a AWD model Y. The boxy shape of the ID.4 means I can fit more stuff in the back. There as many CCS charger locations as there are super charger locations. Also the in the summer the ID.4 should be able to make it to the lake and back on 1 charge. In other words the ID.4 does everything I need it do and costs less than a Model Y.
The European Model Y will come with the new battery pack (4860). This will probably mean about 30% range increase compared to now, and much higher charging speeds. The only thing the European brands can beat it at is better driving comfort.
@@e-redj The 4860 has significantly different design features and in addition the physical size of the cells allows more power storage in a smaller pack as they are more space efficient. Then you add the size reductions (or capacity increases) associated with the new structural pack design that's planned and we should be expecting a very noticeable improvement over the 2170 packs. IMHO 100kWh may well be on the cards for the Model Y.
@@e-redj According to Tesla on battery day the 4680 cells plus structural battery pack will give a 54% increase in range. For comparison the current Model S Long Range has 663km range according to Tesla. The new Model S Plaid+ with the 4680 cells plus structural battery pack has 837km of range. That's a 26% increase. The new Long Range edition will probably have closer to 30% increase. Also the new Model S is almost 200kg lighter than the old model using the new pack. The new battery pack is a big deal. I expect the Model Y to do a complete knockout in terms of range and charging speed to all its closest competitors.
Das Auto. Everytime you speak these single german words it puts a smile on my face. Love that.
Ja, das ist schnell!
I am glad you like the id4 it is high on my list for my next car. Plus 3 years unlimited free charging on ElectrifyAmerica. You cant beat that

VW hat da gute Arbeit geleistet, sowohl mit dem ID3, als auch mit dem ID4. Ne Menge ist sicher über Softwareupdates in den Griff zu kriegen, das Grundkonzept passt!
awaiting Skoda enyak iv !
Nice car, Hope they keep updating the software, Ive heard they plan OTA updates every 12 week.
That will be nothing less of a minor miracle if VW could pull that off.
@@e-redj I am not saying they won't do it, just that it will be very difficult. VW isn't a software company and they don't even make their own software yet. But if they can execute on 12 week OTA intervals then that is a feather in VW's cap.
Cold pizza the next day is the best!
Hi, according to the Polish VW site the biggest battery pack is 77KWH. Is it a matter of net/gross capacity info or it's a different version than the 82kwh you are testing?
Yes
82 kWh gross = 77 kWh net
It would be great if the rumours turn out true that VW will increase charging power for the id.3 and 4 later in 2021.
It would be even more great to start building low wind friction cars like station wagons. Going in a SuV as BEV is not the right Box...its a huge mistake
Instead of the weights on the seat, you could plug in the seatbelt.
Already did it. But it's not enough (already shown in the video). You have to be both buckled up and have weight on the seat. Trust me. I have tried everything.
13:55 the sound of the bike is not annoying for me, that eargsm for me, but for you is annoying. Fossil and electric for car or bike is nice. I like both. No hate..
The car is software limited to 125 kW charging. I heard that 170 kW will be unlocked later...
Every battery charging is limited by software lol... its just a question how much can battery take in the long run...
@@DG-uv3zw I know but I believe you get the essence of the text... 😉
@@mortense8858 I know...
Great trip and nice to see the reality of owning an EV.
The charging speed you are getting would be dreamland a few years ago. Part of the reason I sold my Zoe is because the 22kw max rate would be very out of date in a year or two.
@teslabjorn has VW said anything about if/when battery pre-heat will be available see 21:35?
... and in the USA one would suppose, too.
Great video. what type of traction tires or devices do you have on the car for this? how does it handle in the snow?
Nokian R3
Cold Pizza 🍕 on Sunday! Nice shiiiiiitte 😆
How is the ID4 rear wheel drive in the snow?
Half the price on charging vs sweden , wow! On IONITY
Hej Bjørn. Tak for alle dine videoer. Kan du lave en video hvor du camperer i en Skoda Enyaq ?
Škoda is better
It still lacks a bit more of real life range (efficiency), power and AWD... but for a first try, is quite good.
As always, great job with your test.
I'm worried about it's value. In 2 years it will be only worth half it's cost.
Do you think this is a better than Tesla Y, I am ready to order Skoda Enyaq or Tesla Y. But I’m not sure what to order...
What are your needs vs what are your wants. Me I chose the ID.4. The AWD model of the ID.4 costs less than a AWD model Y. The boxy shape of the ID.4 means I can fit more stuff in the back. There as many CCS charger locations as there are super charger locations. Also the in the summer the ID.4 should be able to make it to the lake and back on 1 charge. In other words the ID.4 does everything I need it do and costs less than a Model Y.
The European Model Y will come with the new battery pack (4860). This will probably mean about 30% range increase compared to now, and much higher charging speeds. The only thing the European brands can beat it at is better driving comfort.
@@pompiuses And price
@@e-redj The 4860 has significantly different design features and in addition the physical size of the cells allows more power storage in a smaller pack as they are more space efficient. Then you add the size reductions (or capacity increases) associated with the new structural pack design that's planned and we should be expecting a very noticeable improvement over the 2170 packs. IMHO 100kWh may well be on the cards for the Model Y.
@@e-redj According to Tesla on battery day the 4680 cells plus structural battery pack will give a 54% increase in range.
For comparison the current Model S Long Range has 663km range according to Tesla. The new Model S Plaid+ with the 4680 cells plus structural battery pack has 837km of range. That's a 26% increase. The new Long Range edition will probably have closer to 30% increase. Also the new Model S is almost 200kg lighter than the old model using the new pack.
The new battery pack is a big deal. I expect the Model Y to do a complete knockout in terms of range and charging speed to all its closest competitors.
Great review 👍
