First, the value on these cars is excellent. Especially with the Used Clean Vehicle Credit. Depending on purchase price, the 2015 eGolf can almost pay for itself with fuel and oil savings. I previously had a 2015 Fiat 500e (it did pay for itself). The eGolf is a little more expensive than the 500e, but better in almost every way. It’s well worth the upgrade. Some favorite features: the super nice interior, backup camera, fast charging, spacious rear seats, and regen breaking selector. Range is excellent as a city car. The eGolf is a wonderful car. I just wish the battery meter was a percent like every other battery powered device. That is solved with ODB and A Better Route Planner. I also wish the BMS reported SoH. I’m surprised they stopped making these cars because of how nice they are. I would be more surprised if they didn’t bring back an electric Golf of some kind. Also the local VW dealer can service this car, unlike the Fiat where the Fiat dealer didn’t want to touch it. Haven’t needed service, but good to know it’s available when the time comes.May 09, 2023

The look and style is what you expect from a Golf. Except as an EV plug-in. It has literally the worst range of any electric vehicle. 89 miles and barely 40 miles highway is horrible and makes this car extremely overpriced! My electric bicycle has better range. I wanted to get an affordable electric vehicle, but this one is not it! If the price reflected the range it would be an easy purchase. But your better off getting a cheaper hybrid until they figure out the range. It’s no surprise they discontinued this model in 2019May 23, 2022
