Volkswagen ID. Buzz | 2025

The 2025 Volkswagen ID. Buzz is an electric van combining retro design with modern technology. It uses a rear-mounted electric motor producing 282 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque, paired with an 82-kWh battery. Front-wheel drive is standard, with all-wheel drive optional for increased traction. The ID. Buzz accelerates from 0-60 mph in 7.5 seconds and offers an estimated range of 260 miles. DC fast charging at 170 kW restores 80% of the battery in 30 minutes. Adaptive suspension and selectable drive modes (Eco, Comfort, Sport) adjust handling for different needs.

The cabin emphasizes flexibility with seating for up to seven and a minimalist dashboard. Recycled fabrics and synthetic leather upholstery highlight sustainability, while a 10-inch touchscreen runs Volkswagen’s ID. software with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Heated front seats, a panoramic glass roof, and 39.3 cubic feet of cargo space (78.7 cubic feet with rear seats folded) prioritize practicality. Optional upgrades include a 12-inch screen, massaging seats, and a 14-speaker Harman Kardon sound system.

Safety is a key priority in the 2025 Golf R, with standard advanced driver-assistance features such as forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and pedestrian monitoring. Optional safety features like blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and a 360-degree camera system further enhance the Golf R's safety profile, providing peace of mind for both spirited driving and daily commuting. The solid build quality and high safety ratings ensure that the Golf R is not only exciting to drive but also safe for the driver and passengers.

Safety features include standard automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control. Optional blind-spot monitoring, a 360-degree camera, and park assist simplify maneuvering. The ID. Buzz’s reinforced battery structure and high-strength steel frame meet rigorous crash-test standards.

Exterior styling nods to Volkswagen’s Microbus heritage with a boxy silhouette, LED light bars, and two-tone paint options. Aerodynamic elements like a flat underbody achieve a drag coefficient of 0.29. Standard 19-inch wheels (20-inch optional) and sliding rear doors enhance functionality. Competing with the Ford E-Transit and Mercedes EQV, the ID. Buzz targets families and businesses seeking electric versatility with retro charm.
