This. They look terrific but are just non-competitive as an EV. It won't be that long before VW cannot trade on Boomer nostalgia anymore- because they won't be driving or driving enough to be buying new cars in volume.

In 'Merica, the VW would be a terrific hybrid for a family that wanted something more interesting than a conventional minivan. That said, my SIL's Toyota Sienna hybrid is a dang spaceship and a terrific car if you can check your ego enough to drive a minivan.

Having had two minivans at the Amer time for 5 years, I’d love to have a minivan again.

Finding a decently cheap manual vehicle has been frustratingly hard. Looking for one for my son. I am going to have a used vehicle lot by the end of the spring of next year between mine, my daughter's and his car.

My 94 Jeep is for sale. It's got a 5 speed and everything you would want to go off roading and has beefed up body armor and sport bars added to the roll cage. I don't have space for it since I got my '67 Pontiac Catalina.

Sell him a 914 for the boy. Sound decision for a new driver teen boy. 😉

My college girlfriend's little brother got a 914 as his first car. With the six. Ripped it in half on a tree in the first month of ownership (he was ok but I think even now 30 years later occasionally a piece of the windshield works its way out of his forehead).
