    L1 Charger not charging in Cold weather?

    I've noticed how much the projected range drops when running heat/AC. But when I turn all of these things off, I see the noticeable increase of 5-10miles in the display. I don't drive the car hard. It's strictly a daily commuter to and from work in traffic. I feel like 15-20 miles loss from a...

    L1 Charger not charging in Cold weather?

    I hope you don't mind my piggy backing as I have a similar question. I test drove a '16 SEL e-Golf for a week and at full charge the dash would display a range of 93 miles (~150km). I ended up purchasing a '16 SE e-Golf and at full charge (in cold weather (approx. 45F/7C) the dash would display...

    shopping for a used 15-16 eGolf

    Thank you for the feedback on my posts. Given my situation, I feel like the eGolf would be a great choice for my next car. I was hoping to get a 2017 model but they don't have any in my area. My commutes are short and I have my wife's car for longer commutes so the range wouldn't be a problem...

    Any surprises after switching to EV?

    Are there any parts that are fragile or are known to break easily? The vibe I get is that it's a pretty robust car.

    Any surprises after switching to EV?

    Have you guys had any issues come up that you didn't consider before switching to an EV? Anything from charging to highway driving? One question that comes to mind is, how much is range affected when driving at highway speeds (60+) ? Anything I should look out for when shopping for a used...

    What car did you give up to get your eGolf?

    I'm in a similar situation. I love the 335d. I can get over 500 miles from a full tank and the torque from the diesel engine is addictively fun. However, I rarely do long road trips and when we do we usually take my wife's Highlander because of the size. The 335d was built for Autobahn type of...

    What car did you give up to get your eGolf?

    Thanks. Do you think you'll be able to keep your eGolf till the wheels come off? What did you drive before?

    What car did you give up to get your eGolf?

    Hello, I'm looking to downsize from my BMW 335d to an e-Golf. My daily commutes are 13 miles round trip (all street) and for longer commutes, we have a Toyota Highlander. I'm looking to save on gas, insurance and maintenance and feel like the e-Golf would be a great choice considering they're...
