At the moment, in the UK, they only sell 3 electric models. e-Golf. A normal, boring Golf with an ~90 mile range. e-Up. A small and cheap e-Car. Again an ~80 mile range. GTI-e. A weird sort of hybrid. Sporty, but can only do 20 miles on electric - the rest is petrol It's a good start, but they're behind Tesla, Nissan, Toyota, and BMW in terms of mind-share around electric vehicles. Their in-car technology was (from what I saw) fairly basic compared to the competition as well. This scandal could be absolutely catastrophic for their ICE brand. Having a strong electric presence can't hurt.
