Loving the Cumulonimbus hair in this video James.
At least he's got some!
It is a beautiful car, and the fact that it is not as efficient as quite a few other electric cars has of course something to do with the box shape, but you know that when you buy such an electric car 👍
It does pretty well considering. The biggest problem is the price!
@@WhichEV Yes 🥲
James looks like the sort of person who wears driving gloves even when he’s finished driving.
He wears driving gloves to bed. He's that obsessed.
20:15 69 grand? This is beyond BMW IX / Audi Etron / Mercedes EQC money. VW are legit crazy.
Not sure it's beyond those cars - they have options lists too. But it is too expensive.
Yeah why not just round it up to a 100k and call it.a day. Madness from VW.
@@festerleech4952 Just wait for the long wheelbase version...
I priced up an Escudo to an equivalent spec as the Buzz Cargo and it came in at only 4k cheaper for the scudo, I'll take the VW thank you
The Suzuki hillclimb car? We're guessing you mean the Fiat E-Scudo?
Thats an insane sticker price. Going to be massive depreciation and bargains to be hard on the second hand market.
It may still be expensive second hand.
They have made a very desirable electric MPV.
Desirable... but expensive.
Seen a fair few of these on the road think VW are on to a winner with this one.
No, VWs haven't been cheap for decades.
Those wheels look so chunky and cool.
Like the presenter.
When is your review of the MG4 Xpower ‘dropping’?
We're actually doing the Extended Range next, in a few weeks. We've driven the XPOWER but only for a very short time and not enough for a video.
@@WhichEV All good. Look forward to the Extended Range review.
Albeit I thought your editor in chief reviewed the Xpower for another publication.
@@renz2.060 yes, but he wasn't able to shoot video that day. We hope to get back to the XPOWER for UA-cam soon. He drove the XPOWER for a couple of hours with a journalist from another publication. It takes longer than that to shoot a video.
@@WhichEV Understood, thank you.
Really love the front of this not too sure about the back.
You mean the car, not the presenter, right?
Would like to see how hot that greenhouse gets in the sun.
Well, there's no sunroof so it won't be so bad as it could be... except for the lack of air vents in the rear.
How on earth can it only be a 5 seater? That’s ridiculous.
Agreed.
Remember the original VW combi which used to ferry Australian people around the desert of their country? Used to be a cheap option this really is not that.
Missed.a trick by now listening to down under on the radio in the background while driving the thing.
But we're in the UK...
VWs haven't been cheap for decades.
Looks like there are hectares of space inside that thing.
Yes, the boot is absolutely huge.
VW are supposed to be the affordable brand. Doesnt their name literally mean car for the people in German?
Yes. But it's not like VWs have been cheap for decades.
The Fiat Multipla was ugly but nice. I'd suffer one of these if someone gave me one. Or even a good discount. it will sell, no problems.
Not seeing that many on the roads in the UK yet.
God that multiple was so stupidly ugly. Clever design but they used the ugly stick to design it.
It's ugly for everything but the styling. I wouldn't even want to call it a van for only allowing 5 seats in the short wheel base model, having to pony up for a LWB for just two more seats.... That's inexcusable. Compared to the Caddy or T7 multicvan it's less practical and thought out. Added on top it's annoying that neither Caddy or T7 come as all electric.
It's a posh family alternative to a RangeRover . It's sadly pretentious
It's the NewBeetle all over again which is sad, a lot of faith, patience and buzz was put into the ID. BUZZ
That's what's ugly about it
We wouldn't use the word ugly, but agree with most of your points. It's a shame. We wanted to love it and it did give us a good feeling to drive and use!
What about hideous looking? @@WhichEV
@@charris8891 It's not though. Some people really like it.
What is happening to all the cow hides that used to be used for car seat production? Are they just throwing them in the bin now? People are still eating cows for meat last time I looked.
Cows are stupid
They're being used for something, but leather manufacture is incredibly bad for the environment - loads of chemicals used.
Its a very impressive modern car. Bit soulless though.
The people we bumped into when testing it seemed to like it.
