      Are you coming from a power wheels kids toy? If you floor this car, you get to wait 20 seconds for it to think, search for a gear, maybe decide to go, and finally start slowly and loudly accelerating. Trash.

    I have the fwd version, it gets hybrid type mileage, consistently. car and Driver quoted 40 mpg, I'm often above that. The best was 46. Okay, it's mostly open roads in SE Virginia. There is something wrong with auto stop-start, I bought it used it was said to have updated electronics, but just by shutting off the ACC (console button) I've had zero problems since. Previously, an auto stop occurred while entering a supermarket parking lot - then the electrics went nuts. But with ACC switched off always off the engine computer boot issues have stopped. Solid car, great driver, suspicious electrics. Yesterday Audi cut a deal with Rivian re software, so they may find their way out. A friend with a Porsche Cayenne had a not dissimilar experience. Anyway, compared to the competition, the car is a winner.

    Which trim is that? What’s the difference between the 2023V2024 model? And there is no power tailgate?

      This is the SE trim, the SE gets dual-zone automatic climate control and no liftgate option for this trim.

    That dash looks like its from 2012. They need a serious update. No power tailgate even at $34k is abysmal. The engine is incredibly weak and laggy. This is, simply put, a terrible offering from VW and pretty embarrassing. If they update the dash, put a bigger engine in it that actually works in American driving conditions, and give it a power tailgate, then they will have a vehicle they can sell. The 0% 60 month financing says it all.

    Mate, if your whole strategy for your channel is to praise shitty vehicles in the hopes that manufacturers send you more and more cars, you don’t have a good strategy. This vehicle is trash. I just test drove it against the competition. Dash from 2012, no power tailgate, engine with less power than a Scion xA from 2007.
