Much better looking than a Passat, but still has the electric vehicle awkwardness to it. I get they all have to be aerodynamic but it gives them a strange bubbly design. The interior looks pretty nice for a VW.

Interior definitely looks better, and glad to see they made changes to the infotainment system. That being said, the rear haptic window switch is still beyond stupid!

Agreed, that's gotta be one of the cheapest cost cutting measures I've ever seen. To be honest though, I could see it catching on with other auto makers. Sad.

It already has I believe. From what videos I’ve seen, looks like the new Volvo and Polestar EV’s coming soon have it.

I miss my GTI and remember when VW made some of the most unique cars out there. Remember the W8-powered Passat? V10 diesel Touareg? Golf R32? Those feel like they came from an entirely different company at this point.
