Nice video with no silly gimmicks, very nicely done. Love the minimalism of this car too, proper buttons and no annoying/distracting touch screen to contend with.

@TotallyEV 2 года назад

Thank you, glad you liked the video! And thanks for sharing your thoughts on the vehicle too :)

I wish VW would bring this e-UP to Australia. It would be a perfect car for my day-to-day drive to work.

@TotallyEV 2 года назад

Looks like VW has axed the e-Up in the UK - alongside the Seat Mii Electric and Skoda EVs, they're now no longer available!

@TonInter Год назад

Great review, thanks. The car looks to be great as well, making choosing one even more stressful, hah.

@TotallyEV Год назад

@salvatoreamico5391 Год назад

Really good review. Since learning about the e-up, I’m finding it hard to choose between purchasing the e-up or the polo manual. Any suggestions? Price wise will work out the same.

@TotallyEV Год назад

Glad you liked the review! As for your question, depends on your trips and mileage you usually do. If it's shorter ones or around 150 miles max, would definitely suggest the e-up! as it's a lot more fun to drive. However, if you're going on longer trips, don't want to wait to recharge and potentially have a bit more standard equipment vs the Up, then the Polo might be the better shout.

@TotallyEV 3 года назад

Haha, good spot. Suppose that's what happens when you don't have a script and drive while doing a review of a car!

@stankushnir 2 года назад

Is the steering wheel distance adjustable? Very important for me

@johnmanderson2060 Год назад

Actual not, only the height is adjustable. That is the only drawback of this car.

@dcross3514 2 года назад

Would different tyres help with road noise?

@TotallyEV 2 года назад

They would indeed, but ultimately the cabin isn't well insulated due to the sound proofing and materials used!

@NOTAMV 3 года назад

I can’t believe the Up! still doesn’t have a infotainment screen. It’s the most expensive of its kind and even one of the cheapest (Aygo) has a modern dashboard with big screen.

@TotallyEV 3 года назад

True, although, your phone will be more up-to-date and useful than the vehicle infotainment system.

@mabogangstar 2 года назад

No point really people have phone as long as u got aux

@johndoyle4723 3 года назад

Should be popular in Yorkshire.

@oscare.quiros6349 3 года назад

Very nice review. I love the e-Up, but my understanding is that is not produced any more in any of its three variants by January 2021.

@TotallyEV 3 года назад

Glad you liked the review! Oh, that might be the case, given the Mii Electric is ultimately a near-identical car, and that VW now has the ID.3 (which we currently have on review this week!)

@elsoundgarden 3 года назад

What about the gearbox? Is it smooth or bad like the citigo?

@TotallyEV 3 года назад

This is the fully electric variant, which runs on a single-speed gearbox, only! There are no gear shifts.

@johnmanderson2060 Год назад

10:15 You got it wrong 🙄 You only pull back the lever to switch back and forth between D (Freewheeling) and B (regen level 4, maximum regen) it is actually extremely practical in comparison of more expensive EV cars as you have a wide range of strategies to recuperate energy, especially when driving downslope. You can let the car increase speed with gravity and pull back the lever at the best moment to maximize strong regen and braking before the road turn. If you go downwards in one pedal driving, you end up using more energy than by freewheeling.

@TotallyEV Год назад

Doing that regularly on the move isn't what we'd describe as practical. So no, didn't get it wrong :)

@johnmanderson2060 Год назад

@@TotallyEV Great, but your video demo is wrong, you don’t demonstrate the back-back pull switching. You go to neutral which is confusing

Shame it hasn't got 16 inch wheels like the Skoda and seat

@TotallyEV 3 года назад

Indeed, although, that could have altered its range!

@sorglos4332 3 года назад

@@TotallyEV I've got the SKODA Citigo e iV with 16 inch wheels and I can tell you it's super efficent with it. In summer it consumes about 9 kWh per 100 km (90 Wh per km) in the city. It's a great family car. We don't need a bigger car for our 2 children.

@TotallyEV 3 года назад

@@sorglos4332 that's great range/efficiency you're getting from it!

@grevberg 3 года назад

So what you really want is a 20.000 car that looks and functions like a 30.000 car.

@Alistair89 3 года назад

Exactly! I don't get this guy I wanted to like his review but he's unhappy with things that aren't important. Who is going to care that your regen setting isn't the same each time you get into the car? You might want to drive the car differently each time you drive it.

@TotallyEV 3 года назад

Well, people who drive electric cars as their daily driver, will. Ultimately, it's to do with how the Volkswagen Group implement it, even in their £95K cars it's not a feature, and it's cumbersome. Without people like ourselves highlighting it, maybe it'll never change. While, rival manufacturers have the technology in place to make it happen. It's really rocket science.
