2023 VW ID. BUZZ by Volkswagen

It has an inner fun compass. A joy-o-meter. An excitement to take the road to never been there, never done that. Even the wrong turn is the right turn. And bumps in the road are goosebumps. The ID. Buzz is going to electrify the world with curiosity and anticipation. The US reveal is coming in 2023. Stay tuned for a smiling bus that will have you grinning. And buzzing.


ID. Buzz drivers and passengers experience the new Bulli feeling in an interior conceived as an open space. Both ID. Buzz vehicles do indeed offer an exceptionally large amount of space on, as mentioned above, their compact vehicle footprint: in the lounge-like, friendly ambience of the MPV version five people have ample room for travelling and lots of space for their luggage (up to 1,121 litres of capacity). If the second row of seats is folded down, the load capacity increases to up to 2,205 litres. In the medium term, a six- and seven-seat configuration and an extended wheelbase will also follow. Three seats up front (alternatively two) and a fixed partition separating off the 3.9 m3 cargo space are, meanwhile, distinctive features of the configuration of the ID. Buzz Cargo. The zero- emission van can carry two euro pallets in the back.

KEY FEATURES:

The ID. Buzz and ID. Buzz Cargo represent Europe’s first all-electric MPV and van range.

The ID. Buzz is the new face of an intelligent, future-oriented, sustainable form of mobility. Volkswagen is replacing leather in this model with non-animal material.

Via Plug & Charge, it will be even easier to charge the ID. Buzz when out and about!

The ID. Buzz provides ample space for family and luggage – and as the Cargo for two euro pallets.

Market launch: still to start in Europe in 2022. North American debut with long wheelbase follows in 2023, sales from 2024.


The ID. Buzz and ID. Buzz Cargo will come onto the market in the first few European countries this autumn. Advance sales are due to start in May. The European versions will come to market with a 77 kWh battery (gross energy content: 82 kWh). It provides current to a 150 kW electric motor, which drives the rear axle. The charging power when using alternating current (AC) is 11 kW. Via a CCS plug connector at a DC quick-charging station (direct current) the charging power increases to as much as 170 kW. When charged in this way, the battery charge level rises from 5 to 80% in about 30 minutes. As is the case for all models of Volkswagen’s ID. family, the new ID. Buzz and ID. Buzz Cargo are based technically on the Group’s Modular Electric Drive Kit (MEB).



Both ID Buzz models have not only been intricately thought through, but also conceived with a great love for detail. One small example of this is, among others, the stylised silhouette of the Buzz embossed into the five-seater's side and seat panels. It is an element reminiscent both of the T1 and the microbus concept vehicle – the Volkswagen show car legend unveiled in 2000 in Detroit. Reflected in the well known exterior and interior design of the ID. Buzz and ID. Buzz Cargo is thus the history of one of the most successful van ranges, which extends from the German Economic Miracle, via the American Woodstock festival all the way to the present day.
