For those who are not aware the state of Saxony has the highest rate of increasing coronavirus cases in all of Germany. Much more than the rest of Germany. The 2022 ID.4s are being built at the factory in Zwickau which is in Saxony, Germany.
This would help account for the AWD version of the ID.4 launch changing from Mid 2021 to Fall 2021. With the delay I started thinking of holding off for the VW Aero B/Space Vizzion Wagon because it’s lower (like my GTI) has better aerodynamics and will be able to charge in 10 minutes instead of 30 minutes at a fast charger.
Ultimately, I would have purchased a Porsche Taycan EV if I could afford it. I was planning on taking European Delivery of a brand new Porsche Cayman when coronavirus was over, but with the crazy fires in California this summer due to global climate change, I can’t buy a new car unless it’s electric.
I did some more research on future electric Porsche cars and in 2022 the electric Porsche Macan will go into production. It will be able charge at a fast charger in 10 minutes, and should have a range of 300 or more miles. I can afford a $65k Porsche Macan and right now I am planning on purchasing and taking European Delivery of an electric Porsche Macan.
Before the ID.4 I had never considered a crossover/suv. Watching the video of Tanner Foust drive the ID.4 around the track shows that there is more side to side wallow in the suspension than the sportier GTI that I am used to driving. I watched a YouTube video of a Porsche Macan gasser and a BMW M2 gasser going around a track. The Macan was only .4 seconds slower around the track. That’s amazing in my opinion. An electric Porsche Macan would be sportier and have better suspension than an AWD ID.4. I would be more happy with an electric Porsche Macan as it would be more like the sporty, practical do anything GTI that I currently have. Has anyone else seriously considered the electric Porsche Macan over an AWD Volkswagen ID.4?
