Volkswagen duplicates a range of commercial models electric models

Department of VW NFZ Volkswagen Group introduced at the very beginning of the IAA Commercial Vehicles in Hannover five world premieres. However, the real car of the Prime four, the fifth is a three-wheeled cargo e-bike for a courier service.

The most exciting premiere was the concept of ID. Buzz Cargo – the first commercial model for the future modular platform MEB. This electroforged created on the basis of the shown a year earlier concept of Electrovaya I. D. Buzz. Interestingly, commercial electric ID. Buzz Cargo will appear on the market before the passenger I. D. Buzz – in 2021, not in 2022. Accordingly, the overall length from the Cargo of 105 mm longer (5048 mm) due to the rear overhang than the Buzz at almost the same wheelbase (3300 mm). Load capacity is 800 kg. elektroorgana On the choice of batteries is large enough capacity: 48 kWh and 111 kW·h With the smallest battery mileage is around 330 km for actual "hard" cycle WLTP, and the second – all of 500-550 km or more, but is as yet not specified. 

including because ID. Buzz Cargo is equipped with a solar battery on the roof. In Sunny weather, a raise is up to 15 kilometers. In addition, once the list of equipment added to the autopilot the fourth level, and so-called "Internet of things" and built-in power socket 230 (16A) for the power supply from the traction battery.

Highly conceptual interior cabin is equipped with a retractable in the front panel in the wheel based on promising offline mode. The motor capacity of 150 kW is installed only on the rear axle. The maximum speed is limited by electronics limit of 160 km/h.

Another novelty was the Crafter HyMotion with hydrogen fuel cells, still considered a concept, but the assurances of the creators with adequate development of infrastructure of filling stations with hydrogen, it is suitable for the production of pipeline. The advantage of rechargeable e-Crafter (like BEV) from HyMotion (type FCEV) in reserve – more than 500 km to 160 km, and even at a higher capacity. The volume stored on Board the hydrogen – 7.5 kg.

A couple of electric car created by electric unit e-Line famous tuning company ABT– vans e-Caddy e-Transporter looks virtually indistinguishable from production models, as the main emphasis was not on the exterior the technical stuffing. Externally, to determine the presence of electromachine possible only by a small nameplate ABT and the green letter E on the grille. To equip the current generation T6, electrically it makes no sense, but promising T7 will receive it without fail, so that the current concept likely application for the future. It is also possible to equip two batteries to choose from: 37.3 kW·h (208 km reserve) and 74.6 per kWh (projected reserve of 400 km). 

But "heel" e-Caddy, based on the version Caddy Maxi with a spacious five-seater cabin, and when folded seats and a fairly large cargo Bay, with the same 7,3 kW battery and electric motor power of 82 kW drives 220 km, although the production model, this parameter will be updated. The maximum speed is 120 km/h On the conviction of the company in a series of e-Caddy will appear in the middle of next year.

 the Last concept was a Cargo e-bike e-Bike designed for couriers and postmen. It is possible to use the pedals, and you can run a 250-watt electric motor. The device is made articulated so that the cargo platform always remains horizontal and the Cycling part leans in the turns. Load capacity Cargo e-Bike is 210 kg (with driver). This commercial machine under the brand name VW will be on the market in 2019. Manufacturing Cargo e-Bike will be deployed at the Volkswagen plant in Hanover.
