Best Home Charger for the Volkswagen ID.4

By LarryLeo · Updated October 4, 2026 · Based on manufacturer specs, not hands-on testing

Short answer

A 40-amp J1772 Level 2 charger suits most ID.4 trims.

Charge portJ1772 / CCS1 port
Onboard AC chargerAbout 7.2–11 kW AC depending on model year and battery

What to look for

  • Some earlier and smaller-battery versions charge at about 7 kW, so 32–40 amps is plenty.
  • A plug-in NEMA 14-50 charger is a simple, portable option at 40 amps.
  • Check your owner's manual for your exact maximum AC rate.
