Volkswagen ID.4 Pro RWD

Why #34

• Roomy, comfortable, often discounted; clunky infotainment.
• Strongest on efficiency (86) and practicality (65); weakest on range (41).
• Sits below #33 BMW i4 eDrive40 mainly on range (53 vs 41).
• Beats #35 Honda Prologue EX AWD on efficiency (86 vs 75).

Heads-up: 2026 US production paused; mostly 2025 inventory.
