Volkswagen ID.4 Pro (2026)
The ID.4 is Volkswagen's volume electric crossover and the EV that most directly courts the European family graduating from a Tiguan or Golf into electric motoring. It is for the buyer who wants familiar VW solidity, a high seating position, and a usable boot, rather than the last word in tech theatre. The 2026 update brings a bigger battery, faster charging, and crucially the long-overdue return of proper switchgear and a sharper infotainment system that fixes the launch car's biggest gripes. The Pro trim is the heart of the range, balancing range, charging speed, and price. It rides comfortably and feels reassuringly grown-up, though keen drivers will find it more sensible than exciting. Cross-shop the Tesla Model 3 for range and the ID.3 if you want the same EV in a smaller, cheaper hatch.
A genuinely good moment to buy — it's at its lowest price on record, 6% below its 90-day average.
