TWC Podcast #57: Drinking the Wolfsburg Kool-Aid
By Phil Royle – March 10, 2022
On this episode, we geek out over the recently unveiled VW ID.Buzz. Sure, it’s basically a gussied up minivan, but this years-in-the-making retro people mover is exactly what the world needs, and the specs look spot on. Yes, there’s other EV news involving nickel prices on the rise, Rivian backtracking, Sony partnering with Honda, GM partnering with PG&E, a Blazer SS EV tease, and more, but this week, it’s mostly us drinking the Wolfsburg Kool-Aid.
