Rubbish car.

Features clearly not as polished as other EV SUVs at similar prices (e.g. Volvo EX40 / BYD Sealion 7))

Alarms about driver fatigues every 10 minutes.

Well-built car, reasonably priced — unlike the inflated costs of German cars.

VW Transporter Transporter

The VW Transporter is the workhorse of the modern tradesman, blending practical cleverness with a cabin that's actually pleasant to spend a long day in. It may not steal the style spotlight, but its unshowy durability, clever load solutions and easy-to-live-with character make it a sensible pick for businesses and weekend projects alike.
