Oh dear, I’m picking up a new VW Golf GTE in 10 days.

Never mind, if I get 10 years out of it, it won’t be all bad.

Watch the fall out of the 2nd hand hybrid market after this!
It's really a buy new and sell every 3 years job!
If you have extended warranty will they replace the hybrid battery? 2018 SE SDV8 4.4 Byron Blue

Maybe JLR or Edd (in the cabinet!) have to remove the video? 2018 SE SDV8 4.4 Byron Blue

The video is now Private, I wonder why Matt has taken it down?

Am I right in thinking this is a primitive hybrid set up, insofar not a mild hybrid nor a PHEV?

The battery was only a small 3.0h matched to a 35kW electric motor and could only do 1 mile on electric. It does make you wonder why such a small battery costs £22k new. 2024 P550e Autobiography

Probably took it down because the video was or irrelevant. Geoff

Or maybe taken it down due to jlr replacement cost of the battery against having the battery repaired. 2016 4.4 diesel
