    Charging handle lock on 2017 e-Golf

    Ah then that must be it, I do have DC FC and I'll ask him if he doesn't but that would explain it. But why would the DC FC e-Golfs be locked if they use a level 2 handle? It would be really nice if that could be deactivated

    Charging handle lock on 2017 e-Golf

    From what I've generally read and heard, all e-Golfs keep the charging handle locked when the door is locked, even when the car is fully charged. A co-worker with a 2017 e-Golf (which I have) told me that his handle is not locked for some reason. Have others experienced that too? Or is there a...

    Buy 2017 e-Golf now or buy it after 2018 model comes out?

    I've have some dealers in the Bay Area say the same thing but I talked to other 3 dealerships, one said verbally he would match but I can't tell for sure if that would have been true. Both of the others sent me a screen copy of their software where they enter the deal details because I told them...

    Buy 2017 e-Golf now or buy it after 2018 model comes out?

    It's really odd, I keep hearing that happening in SoCal. In the Bay Area I got $7,700 off MSRP and a few dealerships were ok giving that discount. Unfortunately for those looking to buy now, VW no longer has the 0% APR offer for this month.

    Buy 2017 e-Golf now or buy it after 2018 model comes out?

    Nope that's what I liked about this dealer, everything was clear and agreed upon from the beginning even before stepping into the dealership and the numbers I got were the numbers we had discussed, nothing on top of it. They just tried to upsell a maintenance package but I didn't take it.

    Buy 2017 e-Golf now or buy it after 2018 model comes out?

    To close the loop on that, I ended up buying the 2017 e-Golf SE with DCFC and I believe I got a good deal. Thanks all for your feedback. There are still plenty of 2017 e-Golfs in the Bay Area and I can definitely refer you to 2 sales persons from 2 different dealerships (maybe a 3rd one even)...

    Buy 2017 e-Golf now or buy it after 2018 model comes out?

    Thanks for your feedback. @NeilBlanchard I wasn't thinking of getting the 2018 but hoping that when it comes out, rebates for the 2017 would be even higher to get it off the lot and I would get the 2017 then. About CCS, still on the fence as I intend to use it mostly within a 50 miles radius and...

    Buy 2017 e-Golf now or buy it after 2018 model comes out?

    Hi all! I have a good offer similar to the one in the other thread "2017 SE $24.5K + taxes and fees, 0% APR" (I'm also in the Bay Area :)). Since VW offers 0% APR on e-Golf in March plus the good dealer discount it's pretty tempting. I'm just wondering if it's really the best time to buy it...
