Here it is, the VW Neo:

If it's indeed scheduled for late 2019 I don't think you'll see many more e-Golfs hitting the lots.

Thanks for that link, johnnylingo.

Protypes starting to hit the road. Looking at late 2019 / early 2020 for general release

General release where? I have read that the U.S. may not get this car but instead will get SUVs and the bus based on this car's platform.

I wonder what $30,000 will buy, for options. Of interest is the range of the battery, and the 40amp 10 kWh charger pack that might be available. Sounds like the entry level version will have 40 to 45 kWh battery capacity?
