While we are used car buyers in Oahu, we also keep our eye on the latest auto news. If you’re leaving the island after being deployed from JBPHH or are relocating, perhaps you’re in a bit of a dilemma as to what to do with your used vehicle. The answer to that one is simple – give CarMark Hawaii a call! Now onto the latest news, but keep reading to learn more about our used car buying process below.

Recently it was announced that Volkswagen’s 2019 electric car will be able to go about 300 miles after being charged for only 15 minutes. The vehicle will feel as spacious on the inside as a Passat, but be about the size of a Golf, according to VW chairman, Herbert Diess. For electric vehicles, recharging time has been a major drawback. For example, it takes about 45 minutes to achieve an 80% charge with Tesla’s supercharger stations. This is good news for VW in terms of working toward recovering the company’s reputation following the emission scandal about one year ago.

No doubt electronic vehicles will become more popular in the future, as companies work toward shortening recharging times to make these vehicles more convenient to use.
