Kindred Electric VW Bus

The Kindred Electric VW Bus takes one of the most iconic vehicles ever made and reimagines it for modern life. Based on the classic Volkswagen Type 2 Split Window, this fully restored and upgraded build keeps the timeless charm of the original while addressing everything that made it difficult to live with. It fits right in with the kind of thoughtfully reengineered classics we regularly feature in our vehicles section.

At its core is a modern electric powertrain that transforms the driving experience. A 294 horsepower electric motor paired with a 74 kWh battery delivers smooth, silent performance with a range of around 200 miles. Fast charging capability and a direct drive system eliminate the quirks of the original drivetrain, making it far more usable for everyday driving.

Beyond performance, the upgrades focus heavily on comfort and usability. Four wheel power disc brakes, modern suspension with adjustable coil overs, and power steering bring confidence and control, while the reinforced chassis ensures long term durability.

Inside, the bus becomes a true social space. Wrap around lounge seating, a rotating passenger chair, and a removable table create a flexible layout perfect for road trips, beach days, or casual outings. Modern touches like a touchscreen infotainment system, wireless connectivity, premium audio, and upgraded climate control bring it fully into the present without losing its retro appeal.

Visually, it stays true to its roots with details like the split windshield, sliding ragtop, and clean classic lines, enhanced by subtle updates like LED lighting and refined materials.

The result is a beautifully balanced restomod that keeps the soul of the original VW Bus intact while delivering the performance, comfort, and reliability expected from a modern vehicle.
