And for people like me with a kinda short commute, even 150 (real) km of range is ok

2019-06-21 13:56:51 UTC  

And a lot of people here have that kind of commute length

2019-06-21 13:56:54 UTC  

@Matthew go on I dare you, the NDA was only related to talking about driving characteristics and interior design (hint: they literally ripped off the Volkswagen e-Up!, both in drivetrain and interior design)

2019-06-21 13:56:57 UTC  

Around big cities I mean

2019-06-21 13:57:08 UTC  

the final release is a bit different in interior design iirc

2019-06-21 13:57:22 UTC  

not even journalists could drive the skoda

2019-06-21 13:57:44 UTC  

everyone else except for Skoda and Audi at this event were like "well yeah, hop in and drive wherever you want"

2019-06-21 13:58:04 UTC  

@Mereck sure, but then the citigo lacks fast charging

2019-06-21 13:58:19 UTC  

so unless you live in a house and can have a charging station in your garage, it becomes worse

2019-06-21 13:58:23 UTC  

Oh, according to some french articles it's gonna be priced at less than 14k

2019-06-21 13:58:36 UTC  

is that with bonuses or something?

2019-06-21 13:58:46 UTC  

over here there's no incentive to buy EV

2019-06-21 13:58:47 UTC  

With

2019-06-21 13:58:51 UTC  

Without 20k

2019-06-21 13:59:00 UTC  

That's still decent

2019-06-21 13:59:13 UTC  

But they also say it's gonna feature fast charge

2019-06-21 13:59:27 UTC  

Not extra fast but still...

2019-06-21 13:59:37 UTC  

4h for a 80% charge

2019-06-21 13:59:48 UTC  

12h30 on a home plug lmao

2019-06-21 14:00:33 UTC  

How is that even that bad tho

2019-06-21 14:00:35 UTC  

yeah home plug is ridiculous

2019-06-21 14:00:40 UTC  

do you drive 300 miles a day

2019-06-21 14:00:52 UTC  

I mean sure, if you own a house and have a driveway or a garage, sure, build a wallbox

2019-06-21 14:01:00 UTC  

but if you don't this car is barely for you

2019-06-21 14:01:11 UTC  

even 4h for 80% at a mall is too long

2019-06-21 14:01:23 UTC  

who spends 4h at a mall lmao

2019-06-21 14:01:28 UTC  

In my case it shouldn't be a problem though

2019-06-21 14:01:34 UTC  

I can charge at my workplace and at home

2019-06-21 14:02:03 UTC  

But my main concern now is about how expensive are the options gonna be

2019-06-21 14:02:06 UTC  

there's no such infrastructure here lol

2019-06-21 14:02:33 UTC  

You can easily spend 4 hours at the mall here in Minneapolis

2019-06-21 14:02:35 UTC  

it's kinda big

2019-06-21 14:02:35 UTC  

It's still spotty, my company is one of the first to install those on a small/medium scale

2019-06-21 14:02:38 UTC  

either you charge at home or at malls. maybe 1% of company parking lots have their charging stations

2019-06-21 14:02:55 UTC  

@Matthew american malls are the size of european cities, I'm not even joking

2019-06-21 14:03:10 UTC  

Feels good not being third-world

2019-06-21 14:03:15 UTC  

huohh

2019-06-21 14:03:37 UTC  

kek skoda still didn't release interior photos of the Citigo

2019-06-21 14:04:49 UTC  
2019-06-21 14:05:48 UTC  

skoda's new interior design
