Changes up close!
More power marks one of the most signifiant changes in the ID.4 for 2024, made clear in a new performance drive unit. This all-new motor allows the RWD models with the 82-kWh battery pack to produce up to 282 hp, adding a drive for the front wheels that brings the 82-kWh AWD up to 330 hp. This motor will result in numerous benefits, including boosting acceleration, improving efficiency and increasing the range. While that range as the result of the new electric motors is not yet revealed (EPA estimates are not yet available,) current rating is between 255 and 275 miles with the larger battery pack. It is expected incremental improvements over those numbers for the 2024 vehicle.
The 2024 ID.4 will be available in three trim levels—Standard/Pro, S and S Plus—with the option of 62 kWh or 82 kWh batteries, as well as rear-wheel- or all-wheel drive.
While 62 kWh ID.4 models continue with the standard 12-inch infotainment display, in the 82-kWh pack models, see your infotainment up close and person with a larger screen, 12.9-inches to be exact. Backlit sliders are another add-on. These changes all serves to enhance the drive experience in the area of technology. Also, with this larger display comes a more intuitive climate control interface and a revised infotainment screen to go along with the larger display. The car also receives a revised steering wheel layout.
Ventilated seats add comfort up front and are among the new features in the ID.4 in 2024. Specifically, these seats are reserved for S trim ID4s with the 82-kWh battery packs while the S Plus trim is treated to a new premium Harman/Kardon nine-speaker audio system with a 16-channel amplifier.
S trims will be presented with as standard new 20-inch aluminum wheels, which will replace the 19-inch wheels, with the S Plus boasting a set of 21-inch machined aluminum wheels. No exterior photos have been released of this exciting change!
A difference will also be seen in the shifter position, helping make it more intuitive to use. It will no longer be located on the Digital instrument panel, but instead move to its own stalk on the right-hand side of the steering column. This change also resulted in causing a move of the stalk for the wipers from the right-hand side of the steering column to the left and joins the turn signal as a single, multi-function stalk. This change for 2024 allows for the controls and driver instrumentation to be more inline with the upcoming ID. Buzz.
Expected to arrive at dealerships early next year, the new ID.4’s cost still has yet to be revealed, but stay tuned. It is important to note that the 2023 ID.4 models are eligible for
the full potential Federal Tax Credit of up to $7,500. The ID.4 will continue to be assembled in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and with these changes comes all-out excitement and a driving experience like no other. A change is comin’! Reserve yours today!
