Volkswagen ID.4 electric lease deals

Leasing a Volkswagen ID.4 in the UK

The UK is a country utterly obsessed with SUVs and 4x4’s. Thankfully, this is something which Volkswagen are very much aware of from their combustion product. Our personal, business and salary sacrifice customers are very much blessed with a choice of great SUVs to review – the Skoda Enyaq, Volvo XC40, Mercedes EQA and Tesla Model Y to name but a few. Is the future of electric vehicles really going to be SUVs? This is actually a great question and so far, we have noticed a considerable amount of new electric cars being released in SUV or Crossover formats.

Building upon the success of the e-Golf and subsequent ID.3, VW released their Tiguan equivalent the ID.4 as a practical and cost-effective option for families and those drivers who prefer the upright driving position. Currently available in a 52 kWh Pure and Performance battery plus a 77 kWh Pro Performance and GTX option, the ID.4 offers more than enough for the different budget, range and performance requirements for any leasing customer. For any first-time EV leasing customers, the kWh refers to the battery size of the vehicle (as per CC in a combustion engine) and “kW” refers to the vehicle’s power, in the same way of HP or PS. These terms will become very familiar to all of us very soon!

Two key models for customers to consider are the 52 kWh Life Pure Performance and the 77 kWh GTX. The former option is one of the cheapest SUVs for leasing and so will appeal to those on a more limited monthly budget. And don’t think this won’t offer you the true electric experience with 0-62 times of 11 seconds, 109 kW (or 146hp) output together with 100 mph top speeds. Charging times are around 8 – 9 hours on a 7.2 kW AC home charge point and 35 minutes on the 118 kW DC rapid charger. How far can the Life Pure travel on a full charge? Expect combined winter performances of around 150 miles and a more admirable 200 miles in Summer

Looking for more performance and speed with your VW ID.4?

Then consider the GTX with its 6.2 seconds 0-62 times, 220 kW (295 hp) output and 112 mph top speeds. The GTX can charge more rapidly with the 11 kW AC max providing 8 hour 0-100 % charging speeds and just 33 minutes on its 135 kW DC rapid charging max. And for high mileage EV customers, you have the confidence the ID.4 doesn’t need constant charging – 210 miles of combined performance in winter with a 280 combined range in summer demonstrates that VW are now producing some exceptional battery technology for its electrified solutions.

For many customers, it’s key to note that the future of the EV product is not in 300 or 400+ ranges; the investment will be placed into charging speeds and charging infrastructure, so that leasing customers can utilise 15-20 minute public charging.
