There are currently some solid lease deals to be made on electric vehicles (EVs). We’ve seen some pretty aggressive offers in the form of the Honda Prologue, Hyundai Ioniq 5, and even the Fiat 500e. But Volkswagen has also been leasing its ID.4 midsize crossover with pretty significant offers, below the $150 per month threshold in some cases.

That’s a solid monthly payment for a relatively large crossover that can comfortably seat five and carry their cargo, as well as an EPA-estimated driving range of 291 miles. Turns out it can get even better than that for the ID.4, as one dealer is currently advertising these things for as low as $99 a month. Man, that’s dirt cheap for an EV.

$99/Month On The 2025 VW ID.4 Pro RWD

Volkswagen Garden Grove, in California, currently offers the $99/month lease deal on a 2025 Volkswagen ID.4 in the entry-level Pro rear-wheel-drive specification. Sure, it may not be fitted with dual-motor all-wheel-drive, but the Pro is the model that can achieve the highest range figure within the ID.4 lineup. Its recently updated rear-mounted electric motor is also good for a stout 282 horsepower, and the car can DC fast-charge at a rate of 200 kW. That’s a lot of car for the price.

The deal at Garden Grove VW is on a 24-month term, with a $2,995 down payment. To get there, the dealer says it included an automaker-pumped $5,000 cash-back bonus, resulting in the magical $99/month payment plan, before taxes, of course. That’s unbelievably affordable, which makes the 2025 Volkswagen ID.4 the best deal you can currently get on a brand-new EV.

An Expert Opinion On The Volkswagen ID.4

When the ID.4 was originally released, I wasn’t a big fan of the product. I found its performance lackluster, its efficiency and range underwhelming and the overall ergonomics of the thing were just off. From a messy, laggy, and frankly dumb-witted infotainment interface, to some of the most ridiculous window actuators I have ever witnessed in my career, the ID.4 just felt like a half-baked job from an automaker that had gotten us used to almost premium-feeling vehicles that typically punched well above their weight.

But I then drove the ID.4 again after VW gave it several improvements by way of a facelift, and I felt that, at the price VW was selling these things, the ID.4 made a lot more sense on the market. I actually drove my son home from the hospital in an ID.4, and although I still find its infotainment system rather messy, Volkswagen did try to improve it in key areas, which helps a lot in terms of operating the darn thing.

The ID.4 is also very spacious inside, comfortable, and it’s a quiet vehicle, which is a deal for families. And the updated rear electric motor, which VW calls the AP550 unit, did a lot to improve even the base model’s performance, allowing even the base ID.4 to feel like tremendous value, which we’re seeing here with this aggressive lease deal.

Volkswagen ID.4 sales were definitely doing well at the start of the year, but sales dropped a whopping 65 percent over the same period last year. This is mostly to do with a changing EV market, and a new Administration that’s been heavily cracking down on them, to say nothing of a recent Bill aimed at removing the $7,500 federal tax credit on the purchase of a new EV. So, it makes sense to see VW and its dealers creating new lease deals for the ID.4. For you, the consumer, that’s just good news, as it gives you the opportunity to have access to a pretty decent EV at a solid price.
