Everything We Know About the Volkswagen ID. Buzz

As we look toward a more sustainable future, Volkswagen leads the charge with its visionary approach to electric mobility. The upcoming Volkswagen ID. Buzz, a highly anticipated addition to the company's electric lineup, is set to redefine what it means to drive an electric vehicle. With options for rear-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive, impressive horsepower, and ample interior space, the Volkswagen ID. Buzz promises an unrivaled driving experience without compromising on sustainability or style.

As we eagerly await its arrival in 2024, let's delve into what makes the Volkswagen ID. Buzz an exciting glimpse into the future of electric vehicles.

A Modern Take on a Classic Design

Drawing inspiration from the iconic 1960s Volkswagen bus, the ID. Buzz melds nostalgia and innovation in a unique package that's as visually appealing as it is efficient. But this isn't just a retro-styled novelty — the ID. Buzz is a modern marvel packed with advanced technology, intuitive features, and eco-friendly materials.

Power and Performance

You'll have two powertrain options for the 2025 Volkswagen ID. Buzz: a 282-horsepower single-motor rear-wheel-drive or a more powerful 330-horsepower dual-motor all-wheel-drive version. This electric motor not only delivers impressive horsepower but also generates substantial instant torque, making your drive smoother and more responsive.

While exact range estimates are not yet available for the United States model, based on other offerings from Volkswagen's electric lineup, it could be around 260 miles per full charge. Moreover, charging times are expected to be swift with DC fast-charging capabilities that could take a battery from 10% to 80% in approximately 30 minutes.

Spacious and Comfortable Interior

The U.S. version of the Volkswagen ID. Buzz presents a spacious interior thanks to its extended 127.5-inch wheelbase, which is 10 inches longer than the European model. This extra space allows for a third row, accommodating up to seven passengers comfortably — a feature that sets it apart from most other electric vehicles on the market.

The ID. Buzz goes beyond offering ample seating; it ensures each seat provides an unrivaled level of comfort. The front seats are not only heated and vented but also come with a massage function, making every journey a luxurious experience.

You can add an optional panoramic sunroof to your ID. Buzz, introducing an element of sophistication and allowing you to control natural light inside the vehicle with a simple command.

Moreover, the ID. Buzz takes care of your connectivity and charging needs with wireless phone connectivity, wireless charging, eight USB-C ports spread across the cabin, and even a 110V outlet in the cargo area. With these features at your disposal, every ride in the Volkswagen ID. Buzz becomes an experience in comfort and convenience.

Cutting-Edge Technology

The ID. Buzz isn't just about comfort — it's also packed with advanced tech features. The dashboard features a compact digital display alongside a larger 12.9-inch infotainment screen that handles navigation and other car functions.

Additionally, all models will come standard with Volkswagen's IQ.DRIVE driver-assistance package, which includes adaptive cruise control among other safety features. This suite of advanced systems offers peace of mind and makes every drive safer and more enjoyable.

Eco-Friendly Materials

In keeping with Volkswagen's commitment to sustainability, the ID. Buzz incorporates eco-friendly materials into its design. One standout example is the use of SEAQUAL YARN in the vehicle's seat coverings. This innovative material is made of 90% recycled PET bottles and 10% marine plastic, representing a significant step toward more sustainable car manufacturing. Not only does this contribute to reducing waste and preserving our oceans, but it also ensures that each ride in the ID. Buzz is a conscious step toward a greener future.

Unique Design Features

The ID. Buzz doesn't just break new ground with its electric powertrain and sustainable materials — it also boasts some unique design features that add a touch of whimsy to your driving experience. For instance, you'll find smiley faces subtly etched into each front door handle alcove — a playful nod to the vehicle's optimistic spirit.

Additionally, silhouettes of the ID. Buzz are tastefully incorporated into the upholstery, serving as a constant reminder that you're driving something truly special. These design “Easter eggs” make every journey in the ID. Buzz an adventure filled with delightful discoveries.

Charging Infrastructure

As electric vehicles become more prevalent, having access to an extensive and reliable charging network is vital. Volkswagen has shown its commitment to this cause by developing Electrify America — a nationwide initiative aimed at establishing one of the largest charging networks in the U.S.

With this infrastructure in place, owning an electric vehicle like the ID. Buzz becomes even more convenient. Moreover, for those who prefer charging at home, there are numerous easy-to-install home charging solutions available on the market today.
