You are totally lost...you re not seeing the S-curve of adoption of Evs that is eminent VW makes more money on ICE cars and thus could care a rats a** about saving the environment. They are only selling the eGolf cause they have to.

the point is VW has no strategy for electrification in the US besides selling compliance cars. The debuted the van the crossover and the id buzz a few years ago in Malibu and have done nothing since. etron sales have been abysmal, taycan will be interesting, but i do not think they will...

They originally said they would have a 48v egolf and an id3 in 2019 Let’s face it VW would be cannobolizing ice car sales. This is why they are reluctantlu moving to electric. That and the post dieselgate promises with the likes of ca resources board. Ultimately they will be too far behind...

This confirms that they are losing money on each sale, and only selling as it is a compliance car. Notice they have not upped the range, as VW is not in control from a cost standpoint of excessive battery costs. I think the id3 will show up in 2021 at best, when other manufacturers namely...

If you look earlier in the thread there...many folks have gotten 11.5k off...throw in all the rebates and the final price is approaching $9k+ttl.

That is how things worked 30 years ago. It is a commodity what you are buing. In the age of interent, location means nothing. If you buy out of state based on price that is perfectly acceptable., and you have to play the game over email, and get dealerships to compete with each other as they...

After all rebates a 2019 runs $9,150+ttl YMMV based on state tax situation etc

congrats, any reason you bougt a used one...You can get a new SE with DAP for $11-13k depending on your situation. I think CO still has $6k state rebate right?

the rear windows have 2 lanes and this you must use 2 pieces of film for tinting

Thanks for sharirng. I recently saw a newer gas golf tinted, and it had exactly the same line as the picture I posted.

I just got my car tinted in 40% suntek CIR ceramic. Question: The 2 side rear window, actually have 2 sections each. In my tinting, a small light color line appears on both windows around the curveture of the tint. Not sure others are seeing this on their tinted cars? Question: There are 2...

try ameriprise ..they are very reasonable. We have 2 evs and a gas car..$1100 year You can also creat a separate policy with just the car your teenager is driving with 1 parent. Put the other cars on a different policy.

I have been pleasantly getting on average 4.4mi/kw and around 150ish miles of range with the new battery. Even driving 70mph on the freeway. For most people this 150mile range is more than good enough I would say 98%.

Here is the thread I posted on SD...if you qualify for all the potential rebates...you may be able to get it for under $10k as low as $6.5k ish...

My '16 also had more of a whirlling sound on regen...the '19 that noise is not there. The '16 motors were made in Germay....'19 made in China. So in this area for me, there was actually an improvement.

Please read my previous post about cost cutting...that doesn't always imply a degradation in quality but in my case I am seening some signs. Nothing conclusive, just yet, and hopefully nothing at all. People have reported problems with the new level 1 charger that comes with the vehicle. I...

Unless you are in-elligble for Tax rebates...buying a new eGolf can be less expensive than used...additionally 125 mile range vs 86.

Yes, we have the same issues in socal. The EV rate plans are disadvantages to solar customers unless of course your panels are mostly westward mounted but even then it's hardly of benefit. Net Meetering plus retaining your abillity to have peak periods in the summer between 11am-6pm, far...

Thanks for educating us all, had no idea everything is made in China and not the 'merica. Thanks for that. With that said, check the sticker that came with your '16 vs '19 eGolf, both manufactured in Wolfsburg. But the parts have change considerably. Even the L1 charger has been downgraded...

Yes, I was in exactly the same boat, it was cheaper to buy new than my 2016 lease. 2019 is better in every way, range, features, seats, updates to the rear, better lights. The only downside is that my 2016 70% of the parts were from Germany, 2019 30% of the parts are from China. 2016 just...
