It looks like VW is hitting the advertising pretty good. I received a nice multi-page marketing piece advertising only the EV version of the Golf, as well as an offer for a $50 VISA card if I come test drive one. Not sure if I was targeted because they know I am an EV owner or if they really are that interested in marketing and selling the EV version. Either way, I plan to drive it this weekend.
I also received one. I think it is targeted to Leaf owners. Too late, I REALLY like my B Class and I am not in the market.
I also received one. I'm betting that ChargePoint, Blink or Plug-Share sold a mailing list unless the California rebate program is publicly accessible data.
Test drove it today and loved it. I also loved the B. So when it is time, I'm going to be hard pressed to decide which one to go with. Of the EV's I've driven thus far, to me the Tesla, B, eGolf, and Leaf are the best out there. Sorry Smart, Spark, Focus and Volt. I can't bring myself to try the i3, Fiat or Miev due to what I consider ugly designs. I still need to look at/drive the Kia.
But I'm definitely glad that there are now more options available. I know some people really like the Fiat and i3. That is part of what makes a market. The EVs need to have options available that are attractive to a wide range of individual preferences. Now we need some good SUV choices. I like the Rav4, but can't quite accept the price tag.
