Yep, so when the battery dies you can pack up the car, ship is back to VW, have them charge you three times what a battery should cost, and then ship it back. All this time you’re stuck taking the bus.

Unfortunately no, iCar does not offer iBus as a temporary replacement for iCar. So you feel dirty having to associate with the commoners on a non “i” product.

And if you want to let more than a few different people ride in your car filled with gas from an iStation you have to get Apple to unlock the doors.

VW new compact car will start at $8,200  
They gave no prices on the iCar  
Since the only thing designed so far is the name, its tough to price it.  
Plus repairs and itune-ups will be expensive
