The reveal of the Volkswagen ID.4 electric car is almost upon us, immediately after which VW will start accepting reservations for the new EV. As an added incentive for those who might consider the new battery input, VW is offering ID.4 buyers three years of free charging with the Electrify America network.
Typically, the cost of recharging a DC Electrify America fast charger is $ 0.43 per kilowatt hour, although the price varies by location. According to the Electrify America website, the company currently has 443 charging stations operating in the United States.
The merger shouldn’t come as a surprise, given that Electrify America is a subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group. It was created as part of the settlement over the VW diesel emissions trap scandal.
The ID.4 will be the first in VW’s new family of electric vehicles to be sold in the United States. Follow ID.3, which is already on sale in Europe (but will not arrive here). Details of the ID.4’s battery capacity and range have yet to be released, though VW has said the car will travel up to 310 miles on the European WLTP cycle (EPA range estimates are generally lower) .
