The original Volkswagen e-Golf, introduced in 2014 with a 24.2-kWh battery and an EPA-estimated range of 83 miles, is now viewed as limited but still usable. Despite lacking active thermal management, testing shows it can operate in frigid climates if expectations are adjusted. A test demonstrated a range of only about 51 miles under cold conditions, necessitating cautious driving and strategic charging stops, such as at DC fast chargers. The vehicle remains a reasonably priced option for buyers, evidenced by its value in the used market.
The original Volkswagen e-Golf can still function as a usable electric vehicle, even in cold conditions, though regular top-ups are necessary.
Despite its age, the 2014 e-Golf's battery maintains a level of functionality, with users being able to manage longer trips in cold weather with planning.
