Although not in full production guise, I think it still looks pretty good. If they can actually produce and sell this at the price of a diesel Golf (which is what they are saying), I can see this selling like hotcakes in Europe. Although I’ve also heard they won’t be selling this in North America, which is stupid.

We can’t have nice things. Because we don’t appreciate them. Once the electric car is as attainable as a reasonably priced ICE, I will be all over it. This is awfully close. Potentially.

I think we will definitely get them. I’m also pretty certain that a VW official said as much. In any case I agree it looks great and it would be the first electric car I would even consider buying.

I really do hope we get them here as well. The Model 3 needs some better, lower-cost competition. Right now, if you want a ~
$30k EV (with or without incentives)
with a decent range, your options are quite limited. It seems like VW is doing all the right things - securing battery contracts, committing factories for production, etc.
I do really wish they would get on with making the ID Buzz with 3 rows, and that it has a decent price. It really would make an awesome family hauler.
HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles

I think range still needs to longer for a lot of Americans to buy in. For people who live in a near a major city it might be fine but even the drive to Minneapolis is 230 miles for me. Only having another 70 to drive around once we get there isn’t enough.
If not Range there needs to be an infrastructure. Range anxiety disappears if at least some gas stations have quick charge ports. I think hotels should get in on charging too. I thought about renting a Bolt on our next tire up I have no idea where I de charge it,
