I dig it. $18k for a base electric bus.

Sadly itll be another thing that the usa probably wont get.

Finally I see someone electric say that the recharging plan is "owners can pull in to a charging station and exchange their spent batteries for charged batteries."

Personally I think this is the best plan for mainstream electric vehicles. Require all vehicle makers to standardize to a universal battery pack, which can be swapped by Greasy Johnny the gas station attendant in 3 minutes with some kind of rolling cart. Then they recharge the battery and stock it for the next guy.

Each station has a stock of 20-30 batteries, or however many, and just charges and rotates the stock.

I think: vapor ware... they looking out for investors... but I think we will never see a prototype or at least a real product.

they do not have a factory or a real good selling product... they located in a small city without development or production staff.
The car looks like small and low weight solution and with only high speed of heavy trucks (max 56 mph - the old T2 with big engine 80 mph).

The T2 design is protected by Volkswagen - in the case of production in the form there will be a legal action.
The EB logo could be also cause lawsuits because it might be to similar to VW brand Ettore Bugatti EB.

There have been some real electric car products chrashed the last years in Germany with more personal power and real products e.g. for the big fleet of postal services etc.

I assume this is a low speed neighborhood vehicle? I doubt the design could pass modern highway frontal crash safety tests.

I love it! What a great design, inspired by the VW Type 2, and just as versatile.
