EGG1- Volkswagen ID.4 GTX AWD - or similar

A spacious and environmentally friendly all-electric SUV

Volkswagen’s range of electric cars are all known as IDs. If the VW ID.3 is the manufacturer’s family-sized hatchback, the ID.4 is the larger, more spacious SUV. If you’re looking for a roomy and capable EV to explore the sights of Iceland, the VW ID.4 GTX is a good choice.

From the outside, it’s a particularly sleek SUV. From the inside, it’s a super-spacious vehicle with all the features you’ll need.

The GTX version of this SUV comes with performance features that make the ID.4 even more capable. For instance, it has all-wheel drive (AWD), giving it better handling in all seasons and conditions.

It’s important to know, though, that the ID.4 won’t be suitable for adventures in the highlands. While it’s an AWD, the fact that it’s an EV means that it won’t handle off-road conditions as well as petrol or diesel alternatives. If you’re intending to visit highland destinations such as Landmannalaugar, explore our range of 4x4 SUVs.

What features does a VW ID.4 have?

The Volkswagen ID.4 is a 5-door, 5-seater electric SUV, with an automatic gearbox just like every EV. With Höldur, the vehicle comes with:

• A Bluetooth connection
• Heated front seats
• Air conditioning
• Power windows
• Adjustable power steering
• Remote locking
• Anti-lock brakes.

As it’s an EV, the ID.4 is completely zero-emissions, meaning that you can drive it in Iceland without worrying about your environmental footprint. Volkswagen also says that the entire manufacturing process is carbon neutral too.

Who can hire a VW ID.4?

The VW ID.4 is a great option if you would like more space than you would get in the smaller ID.3 estate. It could be the right choice if you’re travelling in a large family with lots of luggage, for instance.

In Iceland, you need to be at least 20 years old to hire electric cars such as the Volkswagen ID.3. You will also need:

• A valid driving licence, which you’ve had for at least one year
• A credit card, that’s valid for at least the period of rental
• A passport, to prove your identity.
