Volkswagen ID.4: General driver information

Anticipatory driving

An inconsistent or aggressive driving style in the Volkswagen ID.4 can significantly increase energy consumption. By maintaining awareness of traffic conditions and anticipating changes ahead, drivers can reduce the need for frequent acceleration and braking. Keeping a safe and consistent distance from the vehicle in front allows smoother driving and improves overall efficiency of the Volkswagen ID.4.

Avoiding full acceleration

Driving at excessively high speeds in the Volkswagen ID.4 increases rolling resistance and aerodynamic drag, requiring more energy to maintain motion. For optimal efficiency and extended range, avoid unnecessary full acceleration and do not continuously drive at maximum speed.

Checking tire pressures

Incorrect tire pressure in the Volkswagen ID.4 leads to increased tire wear and higher rolling resistance, which negatively affects efficiency. Always ensure that tires are maintained at the correct pressure to achieve optimal performance and reduced energy consumption.

Adapt the tire pressures according to the load carried by your Volkswagen ID.4:

• Follow the specifications listed on the tire pressure label (→ Tire pressure).
• Monitor tire conditions using the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (→ Tire Pressure Monitoring System).

WARNING

Driving the Volkswagen ID.4 at high speeds without maintaining a safe following distance increases the risk of accidents and can result in serious or fatal injuries.

• Always adjust your speed and maintain a safe distance based on visibility, weather, road conditions, and traffic flow.
