VW came out with a new bus, but looks as boring as the new Beetle

Personally I think it looks like a Ford Flex mated with a Mini Cooper and popped out a VW prius with a broken nose.

But I guess at least VW is trying to capitalize on a thriving bus community.

If I think of it as a Kia Soul/Scion xB/Nissan Cube competitor, I like it.
If I think of it as a new microbus, it's horrible.

Didn't Brazil make a more modern Bay that could almost pass for a classic??
