Drive the car a few weeks, and then get back to us on what the range is, per charge. Doesn't matter now that you got the car, whether it has quick charge or doesn't. You research that before you buy the car.

SEL's have leatherette (nagahyde) seats, not leather. Faux leather.

It's not going to be linear, unless all you do is drive on flat, level ground. If you are gaining and losing elevation, that will have an effect on the remaining range, in a drastic way. You're dealing with the equivalent of a 3 gallon tank of diesel fuel in a 2015 Golf TDI, in terms of range...

I would suspect that the accelerator is Pulse Width Modulation based.

I've had my e-Golf about 51 months now. Installed the third replacement battery in it a CR-2025, this morning. This keyfob is a real battery sucking device, compared to my other KeyFobs, which can easily go 3 to 4 years on a 2032 battery.

Wanna play, you gotta pay. It's always been that way, control your passengers or eject them, you are the Captain or Pilot in Charge, aren't you?

That's a D.O.T. violation, not possible, too great a visual distraction for the driver, so it's not possible. Consider it a safety feature, so the person in front of you doesn't get run over.

1 Come to a complete stop. Keep your foot on the foot brake 2. Engage electric parking brake. 3. Place shifter in Neutral. 4. Press the "On Off" button. 5. Place the shifter in "Park" You should never get clunks if you park and shut down in this manner.

Grab the back of the handle on the e-Motorwerks once you have firmly inserted it in the socket... Sometimes some silicone spray helps on the shiny chrome pin on the top also, as well as the whole annular ring and the o ring inside the handle. Gently lift up on the back of the handle...

Meanwhile, Tesla sold 350,000 pre orders for it's new truck design within a week, World Wide.

You will take a very big hit, running the electric heater on that 2016 SE in lost range, on very cold days. I'd recommend either a 2015 or 2016 SEL model, or wait another year and pick up a 2017 model with larger battery capacity.

Now that it's colder, you will have to push the handle in more firmly into the charging port, to get the silver colored pin at the top of the charge port connection to lock and engage. It gets dry and or gritty in there. You should also spray some silicone spray on the pin every 2 or 3 months...

Curious as to what your indicated range is on the Guess O Meter on a full charge?

Shouldn't ever be a problem, grippiness in the rain, if you use D1-D3 or B modes to do most of your slowing down. Would be a problem if you get on the throttle pedal hard at speeds under 35 mph, the motor will easily break them free.

When you get 4 new tires, get a 4 wheel alignment, so that you aren't cupping your tires wear on the rear. I rotate my tires once the the complete life of a set of 4 tires. When the tread depth gets to 6/32 " on the front tires, I rotate them. Usually then continue to drive them until 3 or...

All I did was uncheck the box for daylight savings time.

Drive more, worry less. You'll know soon enough what your range is per charge, after a few recharges, with your driving style taken into account, if the range increase is real or not. They may have changed max level of charge to a new 100% charge rating, thus increasing your range.

Double post

1. No 2. Very low rolling resistance to maximize mileage between recharging. Not a performance tire, unless you consider how far you can go on a charge a measure of performance.

You need a Dedicated 15 amp circuit to charge your e-Golf off of at home. That means a new circuit breaker that's 15 amps and new wiring pulled to one sole electrical outlet, to be used exclusively by your e-Golf for recharging, No other ancillary circuits in use on that one breaker.
