Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Volkswagen Taos than in the Volkswagen ID.4, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Volkswagen ID.4 offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Volkswagen Taos, making it a little more comfortable for the driver and front passenger.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Volkswagen ID.4 will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Volkswagen Taos, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
The Volkswagen ID.4 is about the same width as the Volkswagen Taos. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Volkswagen ID.4, which is slightly longer than the Volkswagen Taos.

Handling
The Volkswagen ID.4 has a smaller turning radius than the Volkswagen Taos, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Volkswagen ID.4 greatly out-muscles the Volkswagen Taos.

Powertrain
The Volkswagen ID.4 has much lower torque than the Volkswagen Taos, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Volkswagen ID.4 and the Volkswagen Taos. The Volkswagen ID.4 has a roomier cargo area for putting your bags or other items than the Volkswagen Taos.
