Re: ID-buzz?


 

It's not for us, I think. I loved my Eurovan, but this thing can't really replace it. Nor is it a Microbus. They're after the Honda Odyssey or Toyota Sienna customers who never owned a Eurovan, or even a vintage Microbus. Alas, it's probably too little, too late -- those people are already satisfied with what they have.

On it being an EV: A 210 mile range isn't bad for a daily driver. I've been driving (and building) my own EVs since the 1970s, and that's plenty of range for 90% of my driving. But it would certainly put a crimp on long-distance travel. While charging stations are now common in big cities and along the Interstates in the US, they are still fairly rare in camping country.

One option they missed is to cover the roof with PV panels. They wouldn't add much (I'd guess around 10 miles of driving per sunny day), but could power camping while parked nicely.
