VW Bulli???
Last Updated:
This illustration from Auto Express shows what an all new modern version of the VW bus could look like.
Unlike the Microbus concept from 2001, this would be smaller and affordable.
The Microbus turned out to be too expensive to produce.
This one would be based on a smaller existing platform.
Part of the rumor also claims the small van would still have a retro-modern design inspired by the old model.
It also states the car would be produced in an “american factory”. I don’t know of any US VW factory, so that might mean Mexico. And they are targeting 100 000 a year worldwide.
What VW needs is a bunch of cool,, smaller, affordable and original looking cars like this one.
Instead of Corolla looking Jettas they have now.
There’s been a rumor floating around for a few weeks that VW was going to build a plant in the U.S. This could be built there. It looks like it would be built on the Up! platform.
VW stated there may be a few different variations of the UP platform at either LA or detroit show, lets hope so ! i cant wait to see the UP at la in a few weeks !
The Up is really small. If based on that, this van would be about the size of a Scion Xb… weird…
“The Up is really small. If based on that, this van would be about the size of a Scion Xb… weird…”
except it will cost $ 2500 more, have less features, and cost you several thousands dollars more after ur warranty expires

…….which is well worth the cost of keeping butt ugly xb’s off the road!
where could I paint peace sign on it and retire
This is almost as cool as fords airstream concept. These companies need to start taking some chances.
This looks very slippery and sleek, i would relly luv to ride this sucker. It looks ready to go hard. vw got it right, it looks like a bullet, dolphin, plug etc….very pleasing!
