The Volkswagen e-Golf provides some great improvements compared to earlier models. Still using the recognised Golf shape makes the transition to electric seem almost unnoticeable.

The drive of the pure electric however proves different and gives a smoother feel and peace of mind with it's green efficiency. You'll be able to benefit from the acclaimed 186 mile range upgraded from the 124 mile range and more power.

The e-Golfs interior is like you'd expect from a VW great build quality and a little character in places. The Volkswagen e-Golf is rechargeable in around 5 hours from a home 7kW EV charger.
