Is Volkswagen Camper coming back?

is volkswagen camper coming back
According to AutoExpress, yes it will! The magazine reports that Volkswagen has joined forces with British rock group The Who on creating the future camper van.

The Who – which used a VW Camper as transport in its early years – performed at the vehicle’s recent 60th birthday celebrations in Hanover, Germany. Immediately after its gig in front of 40,000 adoring fans, the supergroup spent time with top VW executives from Germany and the UK.

The redes­igned version will have an unashamedly retro look. However, a stripped-out, less is more appearance will help keep costs down and make the vehicle more accessible to buyers on tighter budgets. According to VW, the new Camper will almost certainly be built in the US, and it’s equally likely that it will be badged Bulli – a name that the company has only recently registered to itself.

Please bring back the VW van. I really would love to see a true retro job of it. Has to have that VW feel to it. In 1995 I had to settle for a mini van, a Plymouth Voyager. Please GOD, I never want to have to settle for anything like that again! I wanted a VW eurovan or late model Vanagon but they did not sell here in the USA that year. My wife needed a van and we got screwed.

Bulli? VW has gone tooooo far. I have another Bulli for them...one that is a prefix to another popular word. The vehicle looks good though.
