Production version may be named 'VW Budd-E'.
As a follow-up to the concept unveiled at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, Volkswagen will introduce a new VW E-Bulli concept (could be called the VW Duo-E) at CES 2016 in Las Vegas next month. So far, the company has revealed only the front of the concept and teased rest of the exterior in a video clip.
Based on these, AutoBild has created a speculative rendering of the upcoming E-Bulli concept's production version.
According to a report, the VW E-Bulli concept is planned to go into production. The concept focuses on showcasing a newly developed electric drive system. The production version will be an all-electric mini-MPV. To make it a volume-selling global model, there will be a regular variant also, offered with four-cylinder petrol and diesel engines. The combustion engines to be offered could range from 1.0-litre to 2.0-litre in displacement.

The launch timeline indicates that it'll get advanced features like the gesture control tech expected to launch on the eighth-gen 2017 VW Golf.
