Iconic Designs: Electric classic camper vans, such as the beloved VW Type 2 (T1) or retro campers from the 1960s and 1970s, exude timeless appeal and iconic designs that never go out of fashion. Traveling in a classic camper van turns heads and sparks conversations, making your road trip even more memorable.

"There’s no denying the ID.Buzz’s quirkiness, and as a funky family runabout it’s got plenty of charm, but for an adventure like this the eDub feels the more authentic. Electric drive has given the Type 2 a new lease of life, improving on many of the original’s flaws, and secured its future in our new battery powered world."
