The Volkswagen E-Golf may not be the best-selling eco-friendly compact car on the market—or even the top-selling compact all-electric vehicle. But in terms of what makes a small car great and green, according to AAA, the E-Golf is the best overall compact green car on the market. With a total score of 87.09 out of 100, the e-Golf SEL Premium beat out the Audi A3 Sportback e-tron (83.49) and Kia Soul EV (81.16) to earn top honors in a crowded category that includes the Nissan LEAF, Toyota Prius and Chevy Volt.
The Automobile Club of Southern California’s Automotive Research Center rated six segments of green vehicles in 13 different performance and emissions categories. The E-Golf received excellent scores in emissions, fuel economy, slalom handling, interior noise and visibility. It only received a poor score in one category: cargo capacity.
