Does it come with 4WD?

230V outside electricity?
the designers have obviously never traveled outside of Europe
good luck finding camp areas with 230V in the rest of the world

Think there is a 60s nostalgia that this VW appeals to. Still see the old ones at San Onofre. I don't see 2 people in this comfortably though it can be done. Weekend getaways?

I'd have to get a Sprinter before a VW and only if I were solo.

In the video, the VW is on a beach. Must be 4x4 -- otherwise the video is misleading.

I also thought it was a SYNCHRO.

Flat, Pacific beaches can be driven in 2WD if there is a way across any deep, dry sand.

Only the Pacific? Why cant Atlantic Ocean beaches be driven in 2WD?:?:

Based on the prices used Westys are getting in California I would bet this new model could be marketed for about $199,000.
