The overview

The Volkswagen ID. Buzz electric van is a nostalgic tribute to the classic Microbus, but it is a decidedly modern vehicle. Three-row seating comes standard, with either six- or seven-passenger configurations. The Buzz uses either a single-motor, 282-hp setup to drive the rear wheels, or a dual-motor, 335-hp configuration with all-wheel drive. Fully charged, rear-wheel-drive models offer 234 miles of EPA-estimated range. AWD models are rated for 231 miles but we got 244 miles in our 70-mph highway range test. The cabin is nicely furnished and has a 12.9-inch infotainment screen, but controls mirror the ID. 4's, meaning they are unintuitive. The cabin is very roomy and the third row is removable but doesn't fold into the floor like other minivans. Available creature comforts include a massage feature for the front seats. Options include a panoramic sunroof with electrochromic tinting, and a 14-speaker Harman Kardon stereo. A full suite of active safety systems is standard. The Buzz was on hiatus for 2026 but returned for the 2027 model year.

Behind the data

Latest source update: September 11, 2026

Vehicle summaries, specifications, pricing and ratings come from Consumer Reports vehicle records. Auto Guide groups these records by model and reported generation start year.

Available years are listed explicitly. Gaps do not imply that a model was discontinued. Prices are source estimates, not live offers. No first-hand road test by Auto Guide is claimed.
