Update: As of June 2023, Chapman Volkswagen in Scottsdale, Az does not have any loaners available at all. If you think you might need a loaner when you service your ID.4, id recommend looking elsewhere. Our VW ID.4 Repair Experience Short Series:    • ID.4 Service Short Series   At a distance, the previous generation VW ID.4 looks almost identical to the new one. But there are a few changes that came along with the transition to domestic manufacturing in Chattanooga. The first difference is the front bumper. Here you can see the previous design features a matte plastic grille as opposed to the gloss black on the new US design. The next change is the standard wheel option. While both come standard on 20 in wheels, the 2022 model year AWD pro s features this sharper design which I think looks great, but doesn’t really match the overall design. By contrast, the newer model features a more reserved wheel design. The next exterior difference to note is the roof accents. Here you’ll see that the 2022 AWD Pro S has aluminum accents and roof rails, while the 2023 features all black roof accents. Now it’s important to note that you can still get aluminum accents on the 2023 model, but you’d have to opt for the Pro S Plus Trim to do so. The aluminum accents came standard on the Pros S Trim in the previous model year. Some might be drawn to the aluminum accents over the black, but I personally prefer the way the black blends into the glass and creates the illusion of a floating roof. The final difference on the outside of the ID.4 is the most subtle and possibly the least significant. As you can see here, the rear bumper of the European spec has a rounded corner, and the US-built model has a sharpened edge. This is likely just a consequence of parts availability and production streamlining, as opposed to styling or function. The interior of both model years of the Pro S trim are similar over all. The one area where they differ significantly is the center console. The European spec has armrests and a recessed center storage area, while the Chattanooga built ID.4 as a raised center console. To be completely honest, I really dislike the look of the armrests in the previous model year: I think it cheapens the feel of the interior. Driving dynamics is the first place where our ID.4 and this loaner differ profoundly. The AWD variant features an additional drive mode called traction which I suspect increases the off road capability by distributing power equally to the front and rear motor. I should clarify that the AWD option is available for the 2023 model year as well for an additional $3800. With the AWD option you also get about about 100 more horse power. Let’s test that out. The acceleration is noticeably better in the AWD Pro S versus the RWD, but at 5.8 seconds to 60, it’s still not quite enough to knock your socks off. A couple more things to note with regards to driving is that the AWD doesn’t have as sharp of a turn radius as the RWD variant. Additionally, the AWD definitely feels heavier on the road as a consequence of the extra motor: this brings the estimated range down to 255 miles in this 2022 Pro S AWD, as opposed to 275 in our 2023 RWD. Which means you’d pay more for a new AWD ID.4, but get less range out of it, which is a bummer.
