Spacious and Versatile Interior

The 2025 Volkswagen ID. Buzz is only offered with a long-wheelbase configuration in the United States.

The EV minivan can accommodate up to seven passengers across three rows, providing ample room for families. Its interior is designed with flexibility in mind. The ID.

With the rear seats folded, the cargo capacity expands to 145 cubic feet of space, making it ideal for trips, sports gear, or bulky items.​

Family-Friendly Features

Equipped with modern amenities, the ID. Buzz enhances family journeys:​

  • Safety: Advanced driver-assistance systems like automatic post-collision braking and intelligent crash response ensure peace of mind on the road. There’s also a rear-view camera system. 
  • Technology: A user-friendly 12.9-inch infotainment system keeps everyone connected and entertained.​

These features earned the ID. Buzz the Best Electric 3-Row SUV/Van award in the 2025 Parents Best Family Cars Awards.​

The 2025 Volkswagen ID. Buzz offers a driving range of approximately 230 miles, suitable for daily commutes and family outings. Its fast-charging capability allows the battery to reach 80% charge in about 30 minutes, minimizing downtime during longer trips.​ For performance, the electric minivan utilizes a single, rear-mounted electric motor that produces 282 horsepower. Those wanting increased performance can opt for a dual-motor, all-wheel-drive configuration that produces 335 horsepower.  

Nostalgic Design Meets Modern Needs

Drawing inspiration from the classic VW microbus, the ID. Buzz combines retro aesthetics with contemporary functionality. Its unique design stands out, offering a blend of charm and practicality that appeals to both nostalgic enthusiasts and modern families.
