I'd say it depends on how fast you need to get wherever it is you're
going.  My one beef with the vanagon is that it is rather underpowered.
If you have the luxury of time (and/or lack funds for an EV) though, the
Vanagon has an overall feeling of "rightness" that VW hasn't managed to
dial into the EV.  Plus, due to it's ugliness, the EV losses badly on
the coolness factor.  Of course, my EV impressions are based on test
drives only, but from what I saw I'm not quite ready to part with my
hard earned money.
