  1. Volkswagen ID.4 GTX
    Hi! We just got our 2023 VW ID4 Pro less than two weeks ago, and our first road trip is a challenging one -- from Mount Rainier Maryland to Blackwater Falls State Park in West Virginia! We don't even have a Level 1 charging cord yet. It gets colder and higher the further you go, and there...
  2. Electrify America
    I have the 3 years of free charging for my 2023 ID.4 Pro AWD. I had the myVW app set to charge to 100% on a recent road trip but the Electrify America charger shut off at 80% (this only took 21 minutes). Why did the charger not continue to 100% or 30 minutes, whichever came first? Also, I was...
  3. Charging, Batteries, and Charging Networks
    The recent post by @jkinneberg, Who really charges to 80%?, reminded me of this video that was shared with me a couple of months ago. Ryan talks specifically about Tesla battery replacements, but this seems to apply to all BEVs. Some of the things he talks about here seems to line up with...

    "Rivian Automotive, Inc. today announced it has signed an agreement with Tesla to provide Rivian drivers access to Tesla’s Supercharger network across the United States and Canada. Central to its mission to electrify and decarbonize transportation, Rivian will also continue to expand its own...

    I've used ABRP for a few trips and I've found it to be one of my favorite tools for route planning (when it doesn't crash). In this article they mention that Rivian doesn't plan on shutting it down for non-Rivian users, but I think time will tell...

    This seems like fairly big news for the North American EV market: https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/news/2023/05/25/ford-ev-customers-to-gain-access-to-12-000-tesla-superchargers--.html
  7. Volkswagen ID.4
    Anyone have any experience with leaving an ID.4 sit for up to 8-10 weeks without driving it? We are headed out on an extended trip… I can have a neighbor drive it a few times so the tires don’t sit too long. It will be garaged, and my plan was to have it at least moderately charged when we left...
  8. Charging, Batteries, and Charging Networks
    I got 2022 ID4 Pro S couple weeks ago. I understand it depends on driving but here I am talking about normal suburb driving - nothing crazy. With charge 80% I see it gets only 250 miles - 3.1mi/Kwh quite disappointing. I observer that charge drains fast depending in general and driving and...
  9. Charging, Batteries, and Charging Networks
    Does anyone know what the different beeps mean? Sometimes there are three beeps when unplugging, sometimes one longer beep, sometimes no beep. Seems to be inconsistent, too, whether the charging is stopped in the car menu, on the app, through the charger itself, or by unlocking the car. No rhyme...
  10. Volkswagen ID.4
    Just picked up our new ID4 yesterday. We will be installing a Level 2 charger at our home next week. I stopped at a local shopping center and tried their lower voltage Level 2 charger. Seemed to work fine. Then, I figured we should learn how to use the Level 1 cable that came with the car, just...

    Hi everyone, Had our VD ID4 since April 22 and was charging fine scheduled or not but now if we plug the car in before the charging session it will only charge at 3kwh when the session starts. If you unplug and plug back in within the schedule time it's fine- goes up to 7kwh as it should. If...

    I brought home my 2022 ID4 last Saturday 11/26, in Minnesota. I'm feeling as though the manufacturer and dealership could have offered a charging specific commonly asked questions info page to review. Some of my issues are not know what questions to ask--I know this is on me to do research...
  13. Charging, Batteries, and Charging Networks
    If I drive few miles and use only 10% of battery charge per day, what’s the best charging strategy? I’ve been charging every five days or so, letting it run down to ~30% and then charging it up to 80%. But can I increase the longevity of my battery by taking a different approach - for example...
  14. Volkswagen ID.4
    Hi, I got my ID4 for a week now. I used type 2 charger station at work to charge my ID4 from 13% to 80% limit but I was surprised it was charged upto 88%! Is that normal? This is my second charge for the car, the first time I charged it up to 90% which was fine until later same day before...
  15. Charging, Batteries, and Charging Networks
    So I am waiting to take delivery of my ID.4 so in the meanwhile I am looking for chargers. What are some of the chargers you guys have installed inside of your homes? Currently I am looking at the Enel X JuiceBox 40 because I have found that the Electrify America chargers aren't that...
  16. Electrify America
    Can anyone still use Plug and Charge? I got my ID4 on 7/10 and when I was setting up the EA account there was a Plug and Charge option. It gave me an error message when I tried to activate that. Today I called EA and they said Plug and Charge will be unavailable until later this year. It's...
  17. Volkswagen ID.4
    Curious if anyone with a 2022 ID.4 has some real-world charging data. There is a post over on reddit that claims to be getting ~170 kW charging, which is a lot higher than I expected. I'm curious if this is a fluke, or something that VW has been underselling. Can anyone with a 2022 confirm what...
  18. Charging, Batteries, and Charging Networks
    I have an Electrify Home and an ID.4 updated to software version 3.1. So far I've charged it in off-peak hours daily via the Electrify Home’s scheduled charging and it works really well. I'm willing to give the ID.4’s scheduled charging a try, but I wonder if there's any benefit to using that...

    Hi all! Hopefully picking up from the dealer this evening and have a question for down the road... I have access to 7 free L2 chargers (11 total plugs) less than 2 miles from my house and an EA about 9-10 miles away. With access to all of that free charging, do you think it is necessary to have...
