The 2025 Volkswagen ID.4 has been priced for Australia ahead of customer deliveries beginning mid-year – almost 18 months after the electric SUV was first due in showrooms.
Volkswagen launched the ID.4 overseas in December 2020, with first Australian deliveries initially due in late 2023, before being pushed back to July 2024, then December 2024, then March 2025 and now finally “around mid-2025”.
In that time, Australia’s electric vehicle (EV) market has gone through a significant period of growth but has now slowed down, despite more affordable models being introduced to local buyers.
The ID.4 – initially launching in rear-wheel drive Pro guise only – is priced from $59,990 before on-road costs.

Volkswagen says that makes it more affordable than the similarly equipped, petrol-powered Tiguan R-Line, which is priced from $60,590 before on-roads.
It also undercuts the upcoming updated Tesla Model Y Launch Series by about $3400, with Volkswagen’s EV boasting a better driving range to the tune of about 80km.
The ID.4 Pro is also $1000 more affordable than the related Cupra Tavascan Endurance, which has identical outputs but a slightly shorter driving range and lower DC fast-charging rate.
For context, the Cupra comes from China while the ID.4 comes from Germany.
A more powerful, all-wheel drive version of the ID.4, called the GTX, is set to debut later this year at a higher – but as-yet undisclosed – price.
