2 years and soon 80 000 km with my e-up 2020 here in Sweden. Mostly on open roads. You don't get any sense of it being a small car. It feels rock steady regardless of the speed. And yes the quality is there all the way.
I've owned the exact same car for a little over two years now, but only drove it 20.000 kms. 230kms with the A.C. on is the best I've done (driving 110km/h on the highway), and I haven't noticed any battery degradation yet, have you ?
@@Baj64 I haven't noticed any degradation but then I never drive to zero looking nervously for a charger and I seldom Dc-charge. 6 Kw Ac-charge is what I do. I could guess that after 80 000 km there is som degradation up to 6-7% but I have never checked it.
Nah, this car doesn't make sense. Zoe, e-208, corsa-e all make more sense than this outdated, insanely small garbage with mediocre range. There is NO reason to buy the Up when you can just buy the cars I mentioned before.
@@NeronistaDeNeron As someone who's considering to purchase his very first (electric) car ever, the E-up is something which strongly piques my interest. The other vehicles you mentioned are too big for my liking. I believe they probably fit other people's need such as you for example. But not for me. This feels like the one for me. I'll give you more details as to why this is the one I believe suits my need if you're open to the discussion.
2004 vw up with 18 kwh battery . 105.000 km driven still mixing with d and b mode can manage around 130- 140 km . Record was 8kwh/100km summer Norway roads . In average its 10-12 kWh summer and 16-18 winter.
Not sure I'd agree that it is affordable at €27.5K in RoI. It's the perfect city car so such a pity about the price of it. Subject to correction but I believe it's circa €15/€16k in other European jurisdictions.
Yes, it's cheaper elsewhere but that's due to our high rates of new vehicle tax here, which is a pity. This is the type of EV that many more should be able to afford.
It's somewhere in between. We agreed to create a video of the car in the style of a review as part of a commercial content partnership we have with Volkswagen, though it wasn't scripted. All the words are our own.
@@CompletecarIe Tell VW that the electric Skoda and SEAT equivalents would be better appreciated in Ireland. They're more affordable, less needles posh items pushing up the price
It has to be said, Ireland only gets the e-UP! because it's right hand drive, it doesn't cost any more than the LHD on the continent But Ireland doesn't get the more basic trim electric Skoda and SEAT equivalents that are considerably cheaper and more attractive than the VW and other EVs That's unacceptable. Which is a sham because its a Goldilocks EV with good practicality, efficiency and range; an honest good, light car, an A segment car too which are now too rare. No reason to call it old an out of date. Analogue dashboard is a breath of fresh air on the market. They shouldn't discontinue the e-UP but expand on it (lik an extra mini-estate or GTE) it's an alternative away from the ID.3 an .4 which is in an overcrowded market - and they're having an oversupply problem.
I love it when reviewers say yes the battery is small but that means it charges much faster than a bigger one. It’s like saying yes the tank is only small but that’s why it costs you less to refill it at the pump 🫣

Hi , how long its take to charge it full?? and which charger do you use '?? thanks
Super to hear!
2year old now (i buyed it 1year old (10k km) ) now 65.000km stil running good :)
Most people with electric SUVs really just need this

How do I change the units from miles to kilometres I’m hoping you know!? Can’t find it on Google anywhere !
divide by 8 then times by 5
Great video!
Thanks!

Woohoo!
все чудово!

I have ID4 and it feels like riding a cow
That bad eh? Which version do you have?

And the last available ones have had big price drops

Not everyone needs to be lugging around a heavy 80+kWh battery when their average daily driving in 30-50kms.
