Charging is possible by using a regular wall plug or a charging station. Public charging is always done through a charging station. How fast the EV can charge depends on the charging station (EVSE) used and the maximum charging capacity of the EV. The table below shows all possible options for charging the Volkswagen ID.4 Pro 4MOTION. Each option shows how fast the battery can be charged from empty to full.
Europe
Charging an EV in Europe differs by country. Some European countries primarily use 1-phase connections to the grid, while other countries are almost exclusively using a 3-phase connection. The table below shows all possible ways the Volkswagen ID.4 Pro 4MOTION can be charged, but some modes of charging might not be widely available in certain countries.

Fast Charging (10 -> 80%)
Rapid charging enables longer journeys by adding as much range as possible in the shortest amount of time. Charging power will decrease significantly after 80% state-of-charge has been reached. A typical rapid charge therefore rarely exceeds 80% SoC. The rapid charge rate of an EV depends on the charger used and the maximum charging power the EV can handle. The table below shows all details for rapid charging the Volkswagen ID.4 Pro 4MOTION.

About this Vehicle
Volkswagen ID.4 Pro 4MOTION Overview
The Volkswagen ID.4 Pro 4MOTION positions itself as a premium mainstream electric SUV, blending German engineering with practical family appeal in the competitive EV market. Built on Volkswagen’s MEB platform, this all-wheel-drive variant targets adventure-seeking families and daily commuters who prioritize versatility, space, and all-season capability. With its spacious cabin, 543-liter trunk (expandable to 1575 liters), and rugged design featuring 180 mm ground clearance, the ID.4 Pro 4MOTION stands out for off-road light duties and urban agility. Key distinguishing features include dual electric motors delivering seamless AWD traction, advanced APP310 powertrains for efficiency, and a minimalist ID. software interface for intuitive control.
In the evolving EV landscape, the Volkswagen ID.4 Pro 4MOTION matters as a refined evolution of VW’s mass-market electric push, offering up to 527 km WLTP range without sacrificing power. It appeals to buyers shifting from gas SUVs like the Tiguan, providing EV specs like 286 hp and superior torque for confident highway merges. This ID.4 review highlights its balance of electric vehicle range, tech-forward cabin, and value, making it a strong contender against flashier rivals in the midsize electric SUV segment.
Volkswagen ID.4 Pro 4MOTION Performance and Driving Experience
The Volkswagen ID.4 Pro 4MOTION delivers punchy acceleration with 286 hp (210 kW) and 501 lb-ft (679 Nm) of instant torque from its dual-motor AWD system—one motor per axle for superior grip in snow, rain, or trails. It sprints 0-62 mph in 6.6-6.9 seconds, blending brisk launches with composed handling via MacPherson strut front and multilink rear suspension, plus electronically controlled dampers. Real-world driving impressions praise its stable dynamics, low 0.28 drag coefficient, and 11.6-meter turning circle for easy maneuvering, though it’s more family hauler than sports car.
