I like everything but the automatic (which I am sure is absolutely brilliant) since I prefer manual, and I feel that the front bumper/grill/headlight setup all looks “too big” for the rest of the car, if that makes sense. If I could get over the front end view and driving an auto then I may bite. That said, I LOVE my 7.5 GTI, but a lot of that is due to work I’ve done on it. I can’t stand the Mk8 though. The only way I’d take one is in R trim, and I’d hate the interior setup lol

Looked so bumpy down those back roads where the tarmac road surface was naf, think it would be un-comfortable as a daily due to the suspension being too hard and no option for adaptive dampers that you can have on the golf, yes if does cost extra on the golf.

They tested this in Australia on a group track test identical conditions to a mk8 gti with the same race car driver behind the wheel. They found it to be WAY slower. Which was very surprising given on paper it seems like it would be as fast or quicker.

@@AlpineGABE yes it’s 15 kw down but you have to keep in mind the main thing they complained about was the cornering speeds being inferior to the other cars in the comparison. Not to mention the Australian mk8 gti actually has the same output as the detuned 128ti.

EV adoption is accelerating every year. Exponential not linear. The only limiting factor is batteries. The number of electric vehicles and types of vehicles and trucks is growing. Many people are holding off buying a new car or scooter until the electric vehicle they want becomes available. Electric vehicles are just better. No noise, no emissions, less fuel costs, less maintenance costs and amazing technology. Gasoline and diesel are OLD polluting technology. So last century. Electric cars, electric trucks, electric buses, electric trash haulers, electric snow blowers, electric lawn mowers, electric weed whackers, electric hedge trimmers, electric snow mobiles, electric water craft, electric garden tools, electric mechanic tools, electric motor cycles, electric bicycles, electric scooters, electric farm tractors, electric construction equipment, electric delivery vehicles, ...... everything is going electric. No worries about starting after sitting for a few months. Gas always needs repairs. If you care about the future for your children care about climate change
@moonbaby61342 жыл бұрын
The limiting factor is going to keep me away from electric cars for at least ten yrs. if the car cannot do at least 80-90% of my petrol then it’s not worth it for me. Too many negatives.
