  • @Bobster986
    @Bobster986 8 лет назад

    It's not real because VW knows how many recalls they would have on all the fancy electronics. Why can't car manufactures realize that real car enthusiasts what a chrome plated mechanical car, not a robot with wheels and a bunch of diodes that break and look cheap.

    @MyplayLists4Y2Y 8 лет назад

    It's not real? Then what's the point? Did he mean it's not available for production? or did he mean this prototype doesn't even do the things being claimed - in which case I say again, what's the point? Anyone can show a mock up of a car and blather on about all of it's "hypothetical" capabilities!

      +niter43 It probably is mostly plastic, it's just a floor model anyway to show proof of concept.

  • @improver1849
    @improver1849 8 лет назад

    Most anticipated? At a car show, it'd be yet another concept. Big deal. That said, now that VW has ruined their brand, it'd be in their best interest to ASAP some of their concepts. For a bus concept, they could take the core of what made their last buses so popular -- namely freedom, and if they were to be so honest sex & drugs or at least partying -- and roll that in. I don't think you have too much freedom and certainly can't have sex in a tiny bus. But nice try. And festival goers in Europe really need something to sleep in. So do American burners.

  • @GreenJimll
    @GreenJimll 8 лет назад +1

    Yet another crappy VW electric vehicle "concept" that isn't going into production for years, if ever. And this one looks like it has 0.001% of the Microbus DNA in it.. mostly in the form of the badge on the front. It looks more like a giant Mini on steroids than a VW bus.
    Come on VW: stop pissing around. Just build a classic bus body with an electric drive train under the floor and a >250 mile range. It shouldn't be this difficult for a supposedly competent car company to manage surely?
