    Volkswagen is planning on bringing a electric vehicle over to the states sometime late next year.

    Volkswagen of America President, Jonathan Browning told Automotive News the company is planning on bringing a electric version of the Golf. Volkswagen will follow the same path as other automakers wherein they will only sell the Golf electric in certain markets before rolling it out nationwide.

    Browning says Volkswagen wants to offer a variety of alternatives for buyers, including diesels, compressed natural gas, and hybrids.

      The RPM of this setup is Crazy and I want to actually take one for a test drive. Be interesting to see what the price is once they are shipping and what it sounds like.

Korean word for which I would call this truck means the road or path traveled. I would call it Kia "Gil" Kia EV9 style with body inspired by Chevrolet El Camino Kia EV9 style with body inspired by the Ford Ranchero

      I agree it should not be on the Government to fund this forever, but as long as they continue to give billions to the Oil industry, then why not give to the green / EV industry. Biggest problem is that Idiot47 personal HATE for EVs had him waste Billions yanking out all the installed chargers and his personal IQ 79 Stupidity had him then also waste billions more on trying to turn everything around that has been done by past presidents rather than focus on governing and doing the right thing. More taxpayer money has been wasted on him attempting to go back to the 60's in all things and hurting this country. At this point, HE IS Hurting the auto industry and as long as he is in office, he will do everything possible to hurt the companies that have created jobs and spent billions to design and develop new autos. Getting him out of the way can then under a stable federal hand allow companies to innovate and compete on products.
