Video Description

Join Tom and Joy from Ludicrous Feed as they take the Volkswagen ID.4 on a real-world road trip, testing its performance, comfort, and efficiency across a mix of city and highway driving. This in-depth video starts with a look at pricing, specifications, and exterior design before moving into a full interior walkthrough, including rear seats, storage, infotainment, and driver controls. Along the way, Tom and Joy share their driving impressions from both urban and motorway conditions, highlighting suspension feel, handling, and energy consumption. The trip also includes a test at a V4 Tesla Supercharger and commentary on software usability, interior features like massage seats, and the overall driving experience. Efficiency data from two separate trip segments is shown and discussed, and the episode concludes with a market comparison and final thoughts on how the ID.4 fits into Australia’s growing EV landscape | Video by Tom Gan (Tesla Tom) and Joy of Ludicrous Feed from Sydney Australia June 2025 Volkswagen ID.4 Real-World Road Trip Review City to Highway Range Test Comparison tables featured in this video: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hwofpTF_v7YgxOsc32MnLBZG3a0xqNIR0MJPpX7bdt4/edit?usp=sharing ===== Financial Disclosure: - No payment was received from Volkswagen for the production of this video With thanks to our sponsors: mycar Tyre & Auto https://www.mycar.com.au/ carloop - Australian EV Data & Ownership Trends https://carloop.com.au/ Hankook Tyres https://www.hankooktire.com/ ===== 00:00 Introduction to VW ID.4 00:21 Pricing and Specs 01:09 External Walkaround and Styling 03:34 Rear and Boot Walkthrough 04:53 Design Commentary 05:39 Bonnet 05:55 Door Close Sound 07:00 Second Row Walkthrough 09:14 Front Passenger Walkthrough 10:41 Driver Side Controls and Seat 11:22 Steering Column Walkthrough 12:07 Front Row Walkthrough of Features 12:23 Interior Styling Commentary 13:24 Storage 14:19 Tom - Drive Impression in the city: suspension and handling 19:00 Infotainment Screen First Impression 20:26 Active Cruise Control with Autosteer Demonstration 22:21 Massage Seats 23:29 Instrument Cluster Screen Walkthrough and 24:34 Blind Spot Monitor 25:17 Sound System 27:01 Software UX Commentary 28:06 Glass Roof with Powered shade 29:07 Lack of connectivity 29:39 Joy - Drive Impression 35:42 Highway Driving Impression 39:32 Infotainment Screen Walkthrough 42:14 Trip Efficiency Stats 1 43:15 Interior Lighting 45:20 City Driving Drive Impression 47:36 Trip Efficiency Stats 2 48:08 V4 Tesla Supercharger Test 49:26 Rear Camera 51:00 Summary of VW ID.4 56:19 Market Comparison 58:17 Final Thoughts ===== SUPPORT LUDICROUS FEED Use my referral link to purchase a Tesla product and get cash off and other exclusive benefits: https://www.tesla.com/en_AU/referral/thomas7208 Become a Channel Member to access exclusive perks! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2TWeqcaGYMobKoHiMtQNHQ/join PayPal: @teslatom or https://paypal.me/teslatom ===== Official Ludicrous Merch Store https://shop.spreadshirt.com.au/ludicrousfeed/ EVSE Australia | Code TESLATOM 5% OFF sitewide https://evse.com.au/ Top BYD Accessories | Code BYDTOM 5% off sitewide https://www.topbyd.com/ Jowua Tesla Accessories | Code TESLATOM5 5% OFF sitewide https://www.jowua-life.com/ ===== ABOUT LUDICROUS FEED Ludicrous Feed is a Sydney-based YouTube channel showing daily life as an Australian family with an electric vehicle.
