Getting a decent charging on the second charge. Nice to see VW improving.

Great demo Kris, however you may want to choose music with more family-friendly lyrics next time. I do agree this van is a MF'n party though 😊

I was surprised with the music choice for this video & cannot imagine it will go down well with the sponsors.

@William Sheehan lol, I agree and I don't think this is an example of something being lost in translation

Thank you, I'm old and not really familiar with modern music, certainly not very good at deciphering lyrics. I kept thinking I'm sure there are some thoroughly unpleasant words and phrases in this! Thank you for confirming that my ears weren't deceiving me. Kris, I'd change the sound track asap my friend.😅

Seems like a fun family van. Carrying family for holidays will be fun in this. Definitely a conversation starter and head turner. Needs ioniq 6 charging and over 100 KWH battery

100 kWh battery = 3.3 tons empty. Max. 200 kilo load capacity is a limiting factor.

The Buzz looks great and practical but it's too expensive. Whip the shell off of it and it's the same platform as an ID.4 but considerably more money. Some of that might be accounted for in differences to battery size but not enough to justify the discrepancy. There is a huge opportunity here for some Chinese automaker to produce a similar styled vehicle but for significantly less.

Buddy can you please show how the charging port looks

This needs APP550 motor.

This would be unbelievable in a 2.0tdi 4 motion

This goes to prove how inefficient an ICE van must be. The problem is, a bigger battery also means more weight and most cost to buy and run. If you generally do short journeys with the odd holiday trip stick to the smaller battery.

What's even more concerning regarding the range and consumption: What's the same trip with 5 people in it? A big boxy shape implies things will be put in to fill the big boxy shape.

Why does everyone not use miles/km per kWh as we do in the UK - it seems a far better system: "This is how many miles (or kilometres) I am getting per kWh, I have a 77kWh battery so therefore I can go **** miles."

And the Kempower charger states "Charger max" at 185 kW, others have been able to go past 190 under ideal conditions...

@@KrisRifa Aha! 187, cool! But the charger still states "Charger max"? 187 or 190 doesn't matter IRL, just interesting to know. 😊

I totally get why you now rank the cars according to their charge time and not the whole trip, but I think it's slightly misleading if you are only showing the actual charging time and not the time that the detour from the highway and handshake takes? Time loss associated with needing to charge more times, is also gonna come from having to exit the highway and connect to the charger. I think cars that only need one charging stop should have the full benefit of this in your ranking as it is more realistic when going on a long trip.

So strange to see an EV bus LOL
