VW's ID. Tiguan the EV the ID.4 should have been?

Volkswagen is retiring the ID.4 and replacing it with the ID. Tiguan, using one of its best-known SUV nameplates for the electric model. Early prototype drives suggest a quieter, more comfortable ride than the ID.4, with tests by Top Gear near Vienna reporting the suspension stays settled on 21-inch wheels and steering remains unaffected by potholes. WardsAuto similarly described a vehicle focused on comfort and easy driving rather than turning into a sports SUV. Volkswagen says deliveries of Tiguan and Tayron topped one million globally last year, and the full reveal is expected in early October with sales in 2027. Pricing, charging and battery details are still emerging.
