I leased my e-Golf 2 years ago and am about to reach 20K miles within a month. Actually, my car is chiming that I need to maintenance when I get off. I read several discussions in the forum regarding 20K service. But I'm not still clear whether this is mandatory: - Is this 20K maintenance...

The door was dented by the next car. Fortunately, the owner of the next car gave me his phone number. This is the dent. So, I'm not sure how much it costs. It's about a half inch, but I'm seeing a clear dent. It's not a just paint issue. Since I leased my car, I have to pay some recovery fee...

I leased a year ago. Mileage is now 11K miles. I changed the cabin filter by myself and am about to do tire rotation. I missed a phone call from my VW dealership. Probably they're trying to sell the maintenance. Do we need any special maintenance?

I switched my EV from LEAF to e-Golf (SE + DC) this week for my commute. I have two quick questions: - I'm charging at my company using ChargePoint DC Fast or L2. I found that the charger was stuck to my car when I tried to unplugged the charger. It was frustrating. There was no lock option...

I will be looking for an EV for my commute this month. e-Golf is currently my favorable choice, but Tesla 3 is announced, even though the details are TBD. I'm not sure whether leasing an only-80-mileage EV car for the next three years. Do you think that the current EV makers could provide a...

I'm considering to lease a 2016 SEL eGolf with 3-year and 7500miles/year term. There are still insufficient inventories (e.g., for blue color) in February, and I don't think the current deal is as good as last year. What total lease amount (down payment + entire monthly payment - $2500 CA...

Thank you! That's very informative and detailed comparisons. :D Locking the charging port looks pretty terrible. I'm mostly charging at my office. We have a rule that no usage of locking charging port so that other people can easily unplug when the charging completed.

My 2-year Nissan LEAF lease will be expired soon. I basically love the EV car, but the quality of the car itself wasn't that satisfactory. Too ugly, lots of rattle/noise, etc. Unfortunately, BMW i3 doesn't have three seats in the rear. I often ride three kids in the back. That was deal breaker...
