Two Hatchbacks with some similarities, but otherwise different in most aspects such as the model year, market segment, starting price, horsepower, fuel economy, and maximum occupancy. First of all, there is a notable difference in the starting price of the 2016 Volkswagen e-Golf, which is $5,190 less than the base MSRP of the 2014 Chevrolet Volt, which is two model years older. Also, the 2014 Volt has a more powerful engine than the 2016 e-Golf, and it gets 18 fewer miles on a gallon of fuel. In addition, the e-Golf seats one more passenger than the Volt. Among similarities are the body structure, ground shadow size, and height.
