Volkswagen set to impress at Hanover show with eT! concept van
Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles is reportedly going to have one of its biggest and most diverse vehicle displays at the IAA Commercial Vehicles show in Hanover this September 20-27th , exhibiting a total of 120 vehicles. The most impressive vehicle on show will be the eT! electric delivery van concept. According to the latest press release from Volkswagen, the eT! concept will be the highlight of the 4,528 m2 Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles stand in Hall 12. Developed by Volkswagen Group Research, which is responsible for the CV world of tomorrow, it offers an insight into the future of electric light commercial vehicles. The Volkswagen eT! will be a pure electrically powered transporter with zero emissions and I have read that it may also include the ability to be driven semi-automatically via a 'drive-stick'. Although the eT! is only in the concept/planning stages and is not going to be available any time soon, Volkswagen say they are preparing for what may be required of lightweight commercial vehicles in the future. Dr Rudolf Krebs, Group Manager for Electric Traction at Volkswagen AG said: ‘The eT! transfers E-mobility to the area of commercial use and is a building block for an innovative logistics concept for the future. Naturally, it is not a vehicle which could become available very soon, but we must make plans today for what the world of lightweight commercial vehicles might look like in the second half of this decade."
