    Greetings All
    I had my ID 4 now for 2 weeks now. I hear it doesn't make a difference if you charge the ID 4 while the battery load is between 50% or 20% so long has not to exceed 80%. While other say it can degrade the battery if you don't let go to 20%. So is this a myth about charging at 20% or it doesn't matter at whatever level the battery level is presently at?

    Are you asking if it is ok to take the battery down below 20%? Of course it's ok... VW built software that keeps a buffer at both the top and bottom end of the charging limits to protect the battery. I just wouldn't leave the car for weeks at less than 10% charge level.
