From the article: 2021 Volkswagen ID.4 electric car: Everything we know in advance of full reveal

VW has said that generally its EVs would be priced in a way that’s comparable to how it priced its TDI diesel models, which had been typically 15% to 25% higher than equivalent gasoline models. Last September, Volkswagen of America CEO Scott Keogh tipped Green Car Reports that it’s seeking to price its electric vehicles roughly equivalent to gasoline models—likely after including the $7,500 federal EV tax credit for which owners of these vehicles might qualify.

Which gasoline model do you all think would be comparable? Tiguan, Atlas Cross Sport, other?

They mention Tiguan in the link from the quote, which I am hoping is what happens. I just feel from other EVs the price range would be more like the Atlas Cross Sport.

I'm hoping for tiguan price point even if it's after the tax incentives.

That puts it around $40,000 to start which I think is quite reasonable. What specs would everyone like to see in a $40k version of the ID.4?

I'd expect the smaller battery, but I'd like to see a nice infotainment setup even in the base model!

It should be the Tiguan because the ID.4 is similar to the ID.3. I'm sure an electric SUV the size of the Atlas will be on the way in the future.

$30,000-$40,000 before the $7,500 tax credit is pretty good for something like this.

Not bad if it can get range within the 250-275 mile bracket like what's expected for the Bolt EUV.
