⚡️The e-golf’s range is accurate and holds itself very well. ~200kms of electric power is more than enough for daily commute.
.
I picked up the car on a full charge. Drove over 70kms in -1 temperature (meaning the heater was on)
I had just over 120km left by the time I got home.
.
Things I like about it;
- Regenerative breaking
- The interior design: electric blue details
- It’s small and compact. Easy to maneuver
- Touch screen media centre
- The “gear” shifter is on the centre console. (Currently mine is on the side of the steering wheel)
.
Plug in the car every night and you have a full charge in the morning

Do you think an electric car would be a practical option for your daily driver? Let me know in the comments.

Now, coming out of driving a BMW M2 Competition for a week and going into an electric car was definitely challenging but after spending a few days with the 2019 Volkswagen e-Golf - I really started to enjoy driving this electric car. And that's totally weird to me because one I’m not that big on EVs and second the Volkswagen e-Golf isn't the fastest or the most impressive in terms of range.
.
That being said, when you put things into perspective you’ll realize there is a small market for EVs with a range of 150 miles or less and where 0-60 times don’t really matter to their buyers. Also, at the end of the day, this is a V-Dub Golf in every aspect and the Golf is by far my favorite hatchback.
.
Spend the next couple of days with me as I bring you all the interesting facts and details on the new 2019 Volkswagen e-Golf!
