While the 2025 ID.4 itself didn’t qualify for the subsidy, customers could still secure a $7,500 discount via leasing—and shoppers leaned into that route. It’s a reminder that a transparent price advantage at the point of sale can outweigh eligibility nuances.Volkswagen’s best-sellers in the U.S. remain the Tiguan LWB (48,951 units) and the Atlas (51,181 units).
