Volkswagen has announced plans to introduce a remote limitation on the range of some electric ID.4 models, reducing their maximum battery capacity to 80% by default. The move aims to mitigate potential risks associated with rapid battery degradation over time, particularly in extreme temperatures. Owners will still have the option to override this setting if needed, though the company has not specified which models or markets will be affected. The decision follows growing industry discussions about balancing performance with long-term battery health in electric vehicles.
