Volkswagen will offer a cheaper version of its ID.4 all-electric compact SUV that comes equipped with a smaller battery pack, a move aimed at attracting customers as inflationary pressures push vehicle prices higher.

Volkswagen of America said Thursday it will sell three trims of the 2023 ID.4, including a base model with a smaller 62 kWh battery that starts at $37,495 before federal tax credits (and not including the $1,295 destination fee). The base model, called standard trim, is about 6% lower than the equivalent trim level of the debut 2021 ID.4 model.
