From Battery Life.
Description:
In this video, I test the Volkswagen ID.5 Pro model year 2026 to find out if it finally received the same improved charging curve as the new ID.5 GTX 2026. I charge the car from 10–80% at IONITY and compare the results with the 2024 ID.5 Pro and the 2026 GTX version.
Has Volkswagen updated the battery management or is the Pro still stuck with the old curve? Let’s find out with detailed charging data, curve comparison, and real-world range analysis!
