3M 1080 Vinyl Wrap! it's about $160 worth of material, and just a few hours in total in putting it on. The fender decals I designed and cut out myself. here's more details on that and a short review: http://alxartblog.blogspot.com/2015/02/2015-voltzwagen-e-golf-zippy-car.html

YES! I imagine if you put a fast pull out pack you could swap in while changing tires there's no reason why they couldn't. in Fact they should do that, because it would jump start the same swapping in commercial cars that could lead to making EV's more appealing to everyone. You would just need...

thanks, yeah I made them myself because VW sure isn't advertising it much, so I figure I'd do my part to set mine apart from just a golf, I even got the euro plates for it that say "Voltzwgn" :) I also added the roof and mirror graphics for fun. I still have my R32, but I almost never drive...

The VW e-Golf is great! I've had mine now for 6 months and I love it! It's also won numerous awards including AAA green car award, it came #2 just under the Tesla Model S and above the MBWi3! nearly 5,000 miles, with an average of over 4.1mpkWh, some trips went as high as 4.7! I did have one...

I know it's not 'competition' but the VW e-Golf is a damn fine EV for a commuter.. And a great alternative for those who can't afford a model S but want a driver's car. So if this is the start of the German move to EV's it's not a bad one, just a small step, and like some have said, it's what...

Yes! Imagine the P85D driveline in a lightweight body with full aero!

Would be nice to see them throw out the usual for something wild, like a lightweight tandem seater with some of it's drive bits exposed for that touch of future hotrod... just for fun :)

yeah I can see that happening, but not until I can afford a longer range car like the Tesla, We drive to LA a few times a year and a car with a 100mile range would make the trip unbearably long. I don't see be able to afford a model S unless some large chunk of money makes it my way where I...

No not really, my wife and I priced them out, and we would need the 3rd row seats, and the tech package and the supercharger. So it came out to be like 76K after rebate. I'd have to sell all 3 cars (about 46-48k maybe) and still put down another 15-20k (that I don't really have) and finance the...

VW has an 8 year warranty on the battery just like Tesla and I live in San Francisco, so I'm not worried. Besides if folks in Norway are eating these things up like mad, (nearly 1000 on the road since March) then I can't imagine that temp is an issue. SF temps are pretty mild all year round and...

I'm curious to drive one soon, but I'm probably going to get the VW e golf. The Kia has some nice tech, and the space is nice too, but the VW Has more options to its driving modes and brake regen that the driver can control. Plus there is no doubt that it has the best interior of all these...

Yeah, I was going to wait and save my pennies for the model 3, but seeing as the gigafactory just got a place to build I would imagine it'll be another 2-3 years before the batteries are being made for that car if even that. So I'm putting that money towards a 35k car I can buy now, sure it's...

I'm relatively new to the EV market, so I spent the last weekend driving all the cars that might work for me, 2 kids in car seats, wife who works at a school near our house and my 15 mile commute from South SF to the Presidio. I started with the Leaf and worked my way up to the Tesla. The...

I plan to get the E-Golf (hopefully next month) I spent last weekend driving all the available EV's on the market, including the Model S. The one that was a real surprise was the Chevy Spark EV, not so much for the tech, but for the sheer power that little car has! 427ft lbs of torque! Super fun...
