vw be like why doesnt anyone want our 70k van

I think outside of crunchy nostalgic boomers, this is not going to be a popular vehicle.
Way too expensive with way too poor range for it to be an actual family vehicle for most
Desistance
VW is determined to fail.

Over MSRP is a thing of the past. Dealers that do this deserve their fate.

Abolish dealerships.

That the article spends half it’s length pushing the pro phev attitude of the head of VW of America before doomsaying the rollout of the ID.Buzz is hilariously transparent what’s going on

Markups, price gouging and other dirty sales tactics are just normal business practice when it comes to a car dealer. It’s supply and demand, if there are people who are willing to pay then then it’s meaningless to complain. Smart people either wait for prices to drop or don’t buy altogether.

Yeah I don’t care The car looks ugly as hell. Probably very inefficient as well. And knowing Volkswagen the software is probably absolute shit.

I mean, the specs kinda suck.

Lol.

Lol. Sadly the demand will not be as big as they think it will.
Initially, yrs, but it will fall off quickly at that price point.

Is there an over/under for recalls in the first year?
CallMeBlaBla
Lol this car is trash all around spec wise

Maybe they’ll all have demos to test drive.

It’s priced too high already.

This will fail badly so give it 6 months and it will be heavily discounted
