From Battery Life.
Description:
Welcome to my full review of the Volkswagen e-Caravelle Electric β a completely different EV compared to Volkswagen ID models.
The e-Caravelle is not designed for long-distance travel or family road trips. This is a business-focused electric vehicle, built to transport up to 8 people, tools, or cargo over short to medium distances β for example to construction sites, shuttle services, or deliveries.
In this video I cover:
Battery sizes (64 kWh vs new 71 kWh version)
Real-world range and charging performance
Motor options (110 kW, 160 kW, 210 kW + AWD)
Interior space, seating flexibility & trunk size
Driving impressions, regen & highway behavior
Acceleration test to identify the motor version
Software, infotainment & app limitations
This specific vehicle is the 160 kW rear-wheel drive, long wheelbase version (5.45 m long). Despite its size, itβs surprisingly comfortable and easy to drive.
π Sponsor β Tronity (Company EV Charging)
If your company has electric company cars, you want employees to charge at home β itβs cheaper and easier for everyone.
Tronity automatically tracks home charging sessions and creates a simple monthly reimbursement overview for employees via its fleet manager.
