ID.5 Pro Performance (MY22)

The Volkswagen ID.5 Pro Performance (MY22) is a 5-seat SUV with rear-wheel drive, sold new in 2022, when it cost £51,940 in the UK, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 8.4 seconds, slower than 76% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 267 miles (430 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 53% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 106th of 242 SUVs.

It uses around 3.5 mi/kWh (179 Wh/km), about the same as the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 77 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 124 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 285 miles (459 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L). The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.

Second-hand, a 2022 example is estimated at £16,800–£19,600, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2022 car should still manage about 247 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
