Full article at:After unveiling a new all-electric and autonomous microbus concept called I.D. BUZZ earlier this year, VW is now announcing that it will bring the vehicle to production in 2022.
A slide that leaked from a VW presentation about its upcoming electric vehicles already confirmed that the vehicle was planned for production, but now the company goes public with its plans.
Volkswagen CEO Dr Herbert Diess said in Pebble Beach today:
“After the presentations at the global motor shows in Detroit and Geneva, we received a large number of letters and emails from customers who said, ‘please build this car. The Microbus has long been part of the California lifestyle. Now we’re bringing it back by reinventing it as an electric vehicle.”
The CEO says that the vehicle will be available at US dealership in 2022 and a version for cargo will also follow.
