Ok , here is an interesting bit. I have home charging worked out and it’s easy and straight forward. But the ID4 advertises a range of 275 miles……BUT they also strongly recommend charging to 80% or 220 miles of range. No real world impact and as I’ve mentioned my Buick LaCrosse had a realistic range of 220 miles due to a small tank.

Other issue,and a small one, is the windshield is electrically heated. Because of this our normal gate transponders don’t work. There are workarounds so as I said, small problem.
