I sometimes wonder if I've already bought my last gas powered car. Glad to see things moving in this direction.

I have. Hope to pass my GTI to the kids when they're old enough in a few years. Replace it with the EV GTI coming.

If for some reason I have to replace sooner, I'm going with a Hyundai Ioniq 5. I'm a sucker for hatchbacks. Cracks people up because I'm 6'4".

VW claiming it will be real by 2026. I bet US doesn't see it until 2027.

I've got a manual GTI and I'm planning on keeping it forever, too. And I'm also 6'4" and love hatchbacks. Are you me?

As a former GTI, GTI, and Jetta GLX owner, I was extremely disappointed with the E-Golf. My wife and I have been wanting a better EV Golf variant and hoping the GTI platform pushes VW to do it right. Until then I watching the EV truck market actually put out stuff out that could actually be a week in the woods vechile.

The E-Golf is gone, luckily. ID.3 is the one now. For a sportier version, look at Cupra Born. We picked one up for the missus and it's a lot of fun!
