Actually I‘d probably buy this new VW Minibus, while I could care less about a beetle. The Minibus is always as history laden as the beetle, and it’s so much more versatile. In a world of autonomous cars, small cars will become ubiquitous and interchangeable since we don’t need to own them anymore to get to work, while big vehicles like the Minibus are more likely to be owned since they are needed for vacations, band tours, camping, IKEA shopping,...
EDIT: Changed Mini to Minibus.
- qubex 9y agoThe VW Mini? I own a Mini and they’re made by BMW, not by VW. Or are we talking about two different things (unlikely that BMW would let its brand be diluted by such a similar marque).
- _puk 9y agoThe Mini is pretty much all that is left of BMW’s acquisition of Rover [0] in 1994 - there is no chance VW is making a Mini. I love the irony that the GP touts the Mini as being more likely to be owned as a “big vehicle”, yet in it’s original shape and size it would be perfect as a small electric vehicle! 0: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rover_Group https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rover_Group
