It’s been three years since Volkswagen first announced plans to produce an all-electric, long-range retro microbus. The ID Buzz still seems almost too cool (and far away) to be true.
But at CES 2020, the new chief of VW self-driving told Electrek that the Buzz is also the basis of VW’s first self-driving vehicles for limited commercial use by 2022. That’s a good sign that the ultimate electric hipster van is on track.
VW’s iconic Westfalia microbus inspired many to live a different lifestyle, which people now refer to today as “van life”, and now Volkswagen is looking to do it again but this time with the all-electric and autonomous ID BUZZ microbus.
The company teased the electric and autonomous “van life” in a new video. Expand
