Volkswagen reports that during the third quarter of 2022, its vehicle sales in the US improved 12% year-over-year to 88,820. That’s an important turn after a few negative quarters, nonetheless, the year-to-date result at 232,099 is still in the red (down 20%).<\/p>\n

The most important news for us is that the all-electric Volkswagen ID.4<\/a> is back in the game again. In Q3, the company delivered 6,657 units, which is 10% more than a year ago and a new record.<\/p>\n

Electric car share out of Volkswagen’s total volume improved to 7.5%, although a year ago it was 7.6%.<\/p>\n

It seems that the German manufacturer finally unlocked an additional supply of the ID.4 in the US. Previously the import from Europe was significantly constrained, but now – combined with the local production in Chattanooga, Tennessee (started in August)<\/a> – sales have rebounded.<\/p>\n

Considering that Volkswagen intends to achieve 7,000 units per month at the Chattanooga plant, before the end of this year, it might become one of the best-selling models on the market. Ultimately, the US-made ID.4 most likely will be responsible for 100% of sales in the US.<\/p>\n

Let’s recall that the company had more than 40,000 reservations at the end of 2021<\/a>, which means that at least in the short term, there shouldn’t be any issues with a lack of demand. The only thing to do is to produce as many ID.4 as possible.<\/p>\n

So far this year, 11,072 Volkswagen ID.4 were sold in the US, which is nearly 10% less than at the same time a year ago. Cumulatively, more than 27,000 ID.4 were delivered to customers.<\/p>\n

In Europe, the Volkswagen ID.4 also is expected to sell better and better, as it’s now produced at two plants: in Zwicaku (Germany)<\/a>, and also in Emden (Germany)<\/a>. With two more plants in China: in Anting and Foshan (online since 2020), the model is produced at five plants on three continents.<\/p>\n

The US-made 2023 Volkswagen ID.4 Standard (RWD, 62 kWh) starts at an MSRP of $37,495 (+$1,295 DST)<\/a> and is better equipped than the previous versions.<\/p>\n
