Tax credit depends on the state, of course. And I suspect your "$17k cheaper" is currently vaporware: > The ID.4 will eschew Volkswagen's traditional S, SE, and SEL trim hierarchy and instead will be offered in base, Pro, and 1st Edition trims. A base model priced around $35,000 will satisfy value-minded consumers with EV aspirations, but that entry-level ID.4 won't launch until sometime in 2022. In the meantime, the ID.4 Pro and loaded 1st Edition models serve as the ID.4's launch trims.[1] 1. https://www.caranddriver.com/volkswagen/id4 https://www.caranddriver.com/volkswagen/id4
