Make it affordable and I'll buy one tomorrow.
Let's talk VW specific. I would absolutely love an ID.Buzz. But you made the fucking thing SIXTY THOUSAND DOLLARS.
Did VW ever implement one pedal drive? Total non starter for me a few years ago (got a volvo instead).
There’s B mode that will aggressively regenerate, but nowhere close to one pedal. Although I’ve found myself using the adaptive cruise control for no pedal drive
One pedal plus adaptive CC is going to blow your mind. I love it!
One pedal driving is coming this fall in MY2027. I've never had it, so driving in B mode feels good enough to me.
Heh, my understanding is that they are affordable, assuming you're buying Chinese cars and your country hasn't levied absurd tariffs on that one country in particular.
They were 80k near me. Insane. However, the Buzz is kind of an outlier - a non-luxury EV at luxury price.
