Also, don't forget that the "+" and "-" buttons give you 5 mph speed increments too.

So much that I agree with in this thread. 1. PHEV's that slow charge shouldn't clog the L2 and up public EVSE's. 2. No EV should camp out at a public station for any reason. Charge and move. 3. Longer range cars are needed as more EV's are built, purchased and utilized. The infrastructure...

That's why I posted a quick vid, I was thinking the same thing. User beware, not responsible for too much machismo! Oh and don't forget to say, "HEYYY!" when you do it.

I finally had this issue this morning on my 2015 e-Golf. The dreaded red light of not wanting to unlock. I did a full scan of the car with my VCDS but didn't want to manually push the locking pin to retract if I didn't have too. The car sat all day yesterday as I drove my beater 2004 VW R32...

Until they are more popular any performance from tuners, etc will be minimum. I do believe they have an e-Golf cup in Europe though. Might have to find some brains to pick over there. I just found the Facebook group so I will do some digging . I have brought mine to an 1/8th mile drag strip...

I was thinking the same thing but since I was posting from my phone I just went with it. It is a shame he didn't educate himself with the car more prior to driving it. I mean, comparing it to a City Golf, a 10 year old City Golf! That was a little comical. It would have also been nice if he...

If you don't plan on driving more than 12,000 miles per year a lease is your best option. If you plan on driving more than that then look for a used or certified pre-owned e-Golf and go from there. I have already put 15K on mine in 8 months and went with the CPO option. The leases don't offer...

I have found that the heavier cords on the Level 3 CCS/SAE Combo plugs don't always lock in 100% and fail to charge or stop charging early. I have started supporting the cord when possible so the weight it not pulling down on the locking mechanism. I will post some pictures when I can but you...

I have a family of 5 and we can fit 3 car seats across the back. 2 Diono Monterry seats on the outside and an infant rear facing in the middle. Kids never complained about the a/c.

Driving Over 60 MPh does increase the drain greatly. You said you were tracking it, so you were most likely driving around 80+ all the time. At a constant of 80, you are looking at a 2 m/kwh kind of average and that will show up on the 'range-o-meter' as around 40 mile range. The range o...

I took the e-Golf to the VW/AUDI Deliverance 2017 track day, that's what! It was awesome. Car understeers a bit a and those low resistance tires were screaming pretty much anytime they weren't straight. I will try to link some pictures and videos from my Facebook or Youtube if I can...

Didn't see this on the search and I know we have some folks on here with some cleverly planned trips to get some distance out of the e-Golf. So, that brings up the question, what are the most miles you have driven your e-Golf in one day? How many charges, Average MPH, Average M kwh and longest...

Drive mine every day on rural country roads and highways and I see 80-110 miles per charge in all weather. Just because others don't drive like you or utilize the same type of roads as you do with their e-Golf doesn't make it wrong. I have a 66 mile round trip daily and I average 54 MPH, get...

When did you purchased your car? A friend of mine is working over there and he didn't recomand me. Fox valley Schaumburg or West Chicago? January 3, 2017. Fox Valley in St. Charles, IL. I assume that is the West Chicago one? Your friend didn't recommend you?

If it is the charger that comes with the car than it is only a level 1 charger. Definitely not considered the 'fast charger'

I actually bought my car from an Illinois dealer, Fox Valley VW! It was Certified Pre-owned and previously registered in NJ but somehow they had it. I had it shipped to NC though. Hopefully the 2017.5/2018 VW e-Golf will be nationwide as anticipated. That will help get all service...
