They changed the name to xbus.

Not sure if that's any better, but the design and utility is actually more alike the old veteran VW busses than VW's own electric bus. I dig it.

They've since declared bankruptcy so it's not going to be produced.

    I’d argue that the id.Buzz actually existing makes more alike the old busses from the 50s and 60s.

    I think it hits the right demography, but other than that the ID.Buzz is basically an SUV with a different exterior.

    Modern safety regulations probably disallow the horizontal steering wheel from the original bus, but that's definitely one of the things I miss in modern vans/busses.
