How do you think Volkswagen did with their first electric minivan? Could you see yourself behind the wheel?

[bavariancarenthusiast]

If you need a Mini Van which looks good and want to go EV. - there is no contest, it's this one.

[CoryDAnimates]

I appreciate the mix match socks to see the contrast of the space.

[cinthe]

Actual driving impressions 4 years later? Lol too expensive to last really sadly.

[andrews]

It would be cool if you could lay all seats down even front seats. For overnighting

thumbs up for the mix match socks a la Punky Brewster ! ( am dating myself, but proud of it) EDIT: awesome and very sensitive review from Kristen, shout out from meeting you at the first Radwood time in SoCal, and props to you for mentioning the Kia Carnival FIRST before the other "minivans" when too many times everyone unfairly list it last, barely list or even totally dismissing the van from Korea, which is actually good... i own the Sedona since 2016 and it has been all good services since for over 55k miles.

I’ll wait until Joe Raiti does the review on this van, sorry MT.

[muahaha]

Rather have the 2 row version, but the powers that be wont give us the option. like single cab trucks.

[urbanstrencan]

Icon properly reborn, VW nice job, now we just need the Bug back❤❤

[MeleeTiger]

I love the attention to detail, that the wheel design makes it sort of look like whitewall tires while rolling because of the blur effect.

[alldaydg]

So they don’t have audio volume controls on the steering wheel?

[lagbait]

$60k+ for a minivan that doesn't seem as versatile as what it was meant to mimic?

[rondogwil]

Very cool looking van. I like it. Unfortunately EV doesn't fit my vehicle needs. If it were a hibrid I would be looking closely at it.

[caseywright]

That price about knocked me out of my chair.

[Hossafy]

The complaints about the screen interaction are everywhere but I’ve only seen 1 review use it as intended with presets and voice commands

[danielm]

I was so excited about a non-Tesla dog mover. 🐶🚙 but $60k starting and less than 250 miles of range is a hard pass.

[funnybeingme]

Good review but I don't get the obsession with 0-60 time, and saying that it's slow, because it is not.

[waterwomyn]

Too expensive. I had an original in the 60s and its cheapness was the point.

[rickrinke]

Is motor trend TV done? Where’s some new content?

[tonymcflattie]

Damm, tesler doesn’t have that trick skylight
