    Battery degradation 1.3 kw vs 3.3Kw vs 7.2

    I have been charging my 2016 eGolf over 110 V ( 1.3 Kw) for about 3 years now. Even with my 60 mile commute, it has been more than sufficient. I have seen almost no battery degradation, I can pretty easily still get 90 real world miles, without too much problem. I now have 2019 eGolf(7.2Kw)...

    Lack of EVs in 2019

    It has been over 7 years since the first mass-produced EV rolled off the line. Here we are in the 2019 model year, and still a lack of decent choices for EVs. I am wondering if auto manufacturers are resisting making decent cars as they are afraid an under $30k sedan that fits 5 people, and...

    $5,000 eGolf purchase?

    VW ElectricGate

    I have been noticing that my 2016 eGolf is not really reporting the mi/kw correctly. It feels like it is inflating the numbers. Recently, I charged the battery completely. I then proceeded to drive 28 miles. My batter gauge was showing that I had used (5 out of 16 bars on battery gauge)...
