(Reuters) -German automaker Volkswagen has resumed deliveries of its ID.Buzz electric minibus to the United States, a company spokesperson said on Tuesday, confirming a report by Focus magazine.
The exports were halted due to a technical recall and the issue of tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump’s administration, a Handelsblatt media report had said last week.
The vehicles have been modified accordingly and can be returned to customers after the recall, a spokesperson said.
The US regulator had criticized the vehicle’s rear seat as being too wide, saying it allowed three people to sit on two seats, posing a safety risk.
