Great, so now that we have established that nobody is a fanboy let us objectively take a gander at the current situation.
Here is Doug Demuro reviewing the Volkswagen ID Buzz:

tl;dr: It is fine.
Here he is reviewing the Rivian:

tl;dr: It is excellent. In fact he says "coolest pickup truck ever made". People who were excited about the cyber truck and know cars would rather get this one.

Well.. I don't know about the French. ;)
But Volkswagen will make you an electrified Golf just fine. And that is the best selling car in Europe. Toyota will make you a Yaris and a boring beige Prius.
The bz4x is out now and getting good reviews:

It is just fine, and slightly cheaper, and so longer term it is unclear how it will all play out.
