What reviewers say

Reviewers agree the ID.7 is Volkswagen's best electric car yet: very spacious, quiet and comfortable, with a long range that suits long journeys. It is set up for comfort rather than agility, with more body lean than a BMW i4 or Tesla Model 3; What Car? found it pricey and recommends the optional adaptive suspension, and Auto Express found the brake pedal soft.
