I spoke to VW HQ in Virginia yesterday. I suggested that they offer the same battery pack in the 2019 eGolf for us 2015 owners. They said, "brilliant idea, no really!" and he promised to alert the HQ in Germany of this idea. I'm not that brilliant and why didn't they think of this? I'd love to have 195 mile range on my eGolf, wouldn't everybody?
That's hilarious. It's never going to happen through sanctioned channels.
/\ This... some underling at VW telling you what you want to hear.
The reality is VW wants to sell new cars, and avoid any warranty work like the plague. They want your car dead, in an accident, or whatever by the time it's three years or older, or your lease is up, and they sell it to a new owner.
