I'm definitely curious about the range hit. Starting at 200 miles and raising the roof can't be great.

After seeing tons of ID Buzz cargo vans in use in Europe, though, I think it could still thrive as a fleet truck in cities.

    Load it full of gear and it drops to around 100, I'd bet. That's fine if you have a fleet of them, and you're delivering in a city. But, no one is making a usable campervan out one of these.

    EDIT: I was imagining taking one into backcountry, not driving to a commercial "campsite" and plugging in. If all you plan to do is drive between parking lots, then yeah, it would work.
