The technology is being adopted by more and more EVs, including the Ford F-150 Lightning and Mustang Mach-E, along with the Kia EV6 \/ Hyundai Ioniq 5 \/ Genesis GV60. The Volkswagen Group is now announcing some of its EVs will add the functionality later this year.<\/p>\n<p>In an AMA (Ask Me Anything) session organized on <em>Reddit<\/em>, none other than CEO Herbert Diess was asked by a VW ID4 owner when he\u2019ll be able to power his house using the crossover\u2019s battery. The 63-year-old executive mentioned bidirectional charging will be added later this year to all ID models provided they\u2019re fitted with the 77-kWh battery. He was referring to the net capacity of the largest battery (82 kWh gross) currently installed in the <a href=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/2022\/02\/14\/skoda-enyaq-coupe-iv-enters-production\/\">MEB models<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11799\" src=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/2022-Volkswagen-ID5-40.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1226\" height=\"818\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Not only will newly built models such as the ID.3, ID.4, and <a href=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/2022\/01\/27\/vw-id-5-enters-production-zwickau-factory\/\">ID.5<\/a> receive this feature, but also existing cars courtesy of an over-the-air update. Unfortunately, Herbert Diess did not respond to a follow-up question about whether other MEB-based electric vehicles sold by different VW Group brands will gain this function. However, it seems highly probable vehicles such as the Audi Q4 E-Tron, Skoda Enyaq, and Cupra Born will receive bidirectional charging sooner or later since they all share the same dedicated EV architecture.<\/p>\n<p>The news shared by the VW Group&#8217;s head honcho couldn&#8217;t come at a better time considering the ID Buzz will premiere on March 9. The reason we are bringing this up is that the electric revival of the Microbus will spawn a camper variant as the <a href=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/2021\/12\/09\/volkswagen-id-california-electric-camper-van\/\">&#8220;California.&#8221;<\/a> Future owners of the outdoorsy derivative will find bidirectional charging useful as they&#8217;ll be able to power various appliances.<\/p>\n<p>Herbert Diess specified only vehicle-to-home charging will be available at first, meaning &#8220;you can run your dishwasher with electricity from abroad.&#8221;\u00a0Support for vehicle-to-vehicle charging will likely be added at a later date.<\/p>\n<p><em>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/undefined\/comments\/soje69\/comment\/hx7dzqf\/?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=web2x&amp;context=3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Reddit<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bidirectional charging has been around for quite a while as the Nissan Leaf has had this feature for several years.
