Midwest for me too, cost me $71 to fill up my GTI on Saturday. $6.25 a gallon for 93. Guess I should be grateful I can tune back to stock and run 87 if I have to.

Fifi? I don’t know no Fifi.
I actually have an L2 charger on a 40A line…my main barrier is vehicle size. I’m a tiny car guy. I refuse to buy an SUV or crossover. I’d love an ID.2 or ID.GTI but Americans like their cars as big as their meals — yuge. So VW will almost certainly never sell an EV smaller than the ID.4 here, used to have one and it barely fit in my garage. Not that I’m tied to VW, I’ve just owned a lot of them.
The only actual subcompact EVs I’ve seen for sale have been the Leaf, Niro, whatever that tiny BMW abomination is called, and the Bolt.
So I guess my barrier is that I’m picky. And I wanted a GTI for years and years and just finally got one…would have bought an electric version in a heartbeat instead.
I guess there’s also the e-golf, but there are not a ton of them in the US and given their age idk how good of range they’d have at this point.
