2021 Volkswagen ID.4 Interior
The 2021 ID.4 booth is light on physical buttons or knobs. In fact, the only button in the cabin is the drive selector, which protrudes from the dashboard, which looks like it was taken from BMW’s electric i3 hatchback. There are fully touch-simulated buttons that provide haptic feedback when pressed. If the idea of hunting to click on the right side of the touchpad distracts you, you can rely on natural voice control. Volkswagen 2021 ID.4 will be one of the only non-luxury machines with a voice recognition system that does not require a strict command structure.
