The European new car market is now dominated by electrified vehicles, which captured nearly two-thirds of all registrations in October 2025 as traditional petrol and diesel sales declined sharply.

    I’d buy that van if:

    • it was smaller
    • it was cheaper
    • it had more range
    • they swapped out that hideous front grille with something that looks better (like the prototypes)

      There’s both a short and long variant of the VW id.buzz

      Since you want a van, how small do you want it?

      For that kind of range and size I find the price kind of reasonable… Remember to factor in your savings on electricity vs gas

      What kind of range and price were you expecting?

      I would agree that the front is kind of ugly… But I see the reference to old VW vans, so I kind of undestand:

        They don’t sell the short variant in North America. ☹️

        It’s incredibly overpriced.
