They should have deployed only the XWB model first and see what the take rate was.
The pricing of all VW ID models goes from silly to absolutely nuts.
It's all hype and BUZZ
because of that they have shitty sale and must paused production of EV junk vehicles !! this all car maker companies get billions of tax payers money and they still charge this shitty EVs so much that only rich and high class can afford them even they too have them as third or fourth car or for shoppping in city
The pricing of all cars is nuts now. The only way people buy them is on finance now. It’s not the price, it’s the monthly payment seems to be the way they advertise them
Yeah. VW used to be a cheap car brand. But now they’ve tried to enter the more luxurious market. Which makes no sense at all when they have Audi, Porsche and Bentley. Sure they don’t have a minivan but still.
@@tacosalaten3677 VW was never a cheap brand.
Thomas is in 2 places at once! What a champ!
welcome !
He is gifted. No animal skins in this episode.
Price: one bazillion euros
You can buy the current Buzz version with a 29K euro discount (81K to 52K) at the dealer here in Lithuania and no one is biting.
That's the debt VW took on after dieselgate and squandered
@@toyotaprius79Nah, has nothing do with it but the increased price of all types of energy sources which incrased inflation and expenses in all areas. So you can't blame VW one bit but those who made Germany break up economic ties with Russia and those that blew up the gas pipeline. So we in Europe got double f.ed...
Yeah I'm just gonna 1.9 TDI swap an old mk1 or mk2 caddy, and be way happier
The dirty hippies that drove the originals in the US are doing backflips in their graves
Door closing sound is my favorite part of your reviews.

Haven't even watched this video all the way through yet but I'm laughing my head off at the bonging noise when you sit down! "Dad! Can you do that again?" the children will say! Good to see the German sense of humour. Hello from the UK. I will continue watching and looking forward to more ausgezeichnet video content :)
Another great review, very informative. Thomas does a great job, and the long wheelbase GTX van looks like quite the nice and capable package.
Cheers m8 !
Once again, an excellent review! I am looking forward to the ID Buzz coming to the US later this year.
Tolles video. Danke Thomas und das ganze Team hinter der Kamera
Gern geschehen 😊 Danke!!
Gibt auch bald noch mehr deutsche Reviews von uns:

Hi. Will the first edition ID Buzz (short wheelbase) have the option to aftermarket install the 2-2-2 seating option?
I love it but would need to be a second or third owner one day.
Also, you are among the top reviewers for me. well done!
The VW buzz could have been so popular if it wasnt for the price.The starting price for one in Ireland is €59k.
Love it but you are right, the price is a killer. Not sure why a van with a few extra seats warrants such an inflated price.
the reality is even with that stupid high price,they lose money in every one they sell. VW really dropped the ball when they decided to ride the diesel wave after the dieselgate, if they had took Tesla serious and developed proper EV platforms they would not be in this sad state, the worst software and the worst value for money in EV
I was worried when you had the side doors open for the door test but you realised and closed them! Top tier work 👏
Love this channel. Don’t know how I’ve not subscribed until now, but I have done now. Really wish you’d shown the boot space behind the 3rd row, with the 3rd row slid forward though! Perhaps next time you get hold of a LWB ID Buzz you could show it?
Welcome !
Thanks for a great review. With the new updated software with pre-heating of the battery is there also a better solution for keeping the heating on for longer time than 30min? I.e. for camper / dog mode?
Thanks 🙏 good question. It would be possible i guess, but I haven’t seen any function of that yet.
The front facia has a "The iron giant" animation robot vibe
Oo salut !
@@slimshady9756 :D servus !
VW not understanding why ID BUZZ sales are struggling. We all waited excitedly 7 years for the Buzz. All we wanted was an affordable (sub 40,000 euro) EV MPV/Minibus with 6 seats minimum and a 3 row (8 seat) in Short Wheel Base form.
If anyone wants an affordable +5 seat EV I could only recommend them vans from Citroën and Peugeot. The EU market is in a pathetic state. No question of incompetence to why they're trying so hard to push back the tide of Chinese EVs.
It is just way too expensive.
Its a "look at me" toy for the wealthy to take their kids to school same as the new Land Rover Defender. I only see rich mums driving these. Id like to own one as a second car, if I had money to burn, cause I like the looks of it.
I don't see how Peugeot is better in this case. They have the e-Traveller, but that thing is 50K with a 50kWh battery. You can get the Buzz for that and it's ~80kWh.
@@honza2755 How? It's almost the same price as the Multivan and it's EV. You can get it discounted too. People just don't want EV's, especially as a van where it's going to be used as a work vehicle or a long trip vehicle where diesel is just far superior in so many ways.
@@honza2755it's such a shame. It's like the 2nd gen New Beetle all over again but harmful.
Heat pump with camping mode?
Now that is a good looking vehicle,
Wow what a bus just incredible 😊 it can fly😊
What’s the range from 80% to 20% at 120km/h on the motorway?
Will this be for the Cargo too?
They should just made the front lights round and would be just perfect !!
Round lights
2+1 front row seating
3 row seating in Short Wheel Base (8 seater)
Sub €40,000 entry level price
If VW think a tarted up vanity project is perfect, then no wonder their ambitions are not being met
I know.. but people would say "look its a Porsche 911 van" and make fun of Porsche 911s. Also there are no models with round headlights in VW line up anymore.
I wonder, if it had a solar roof, how much kilometers could you get per day?
Absolutely LOVE IT ❤
I would love to see an AWD synchro version will a little more ground clearance and some off road modes.
So cute! The ID Buzz too😁
If there was a diesel version I'd buy one.Strange there doesnt seem to be a roof rail system for roof boxes etc?🤔
RHD version for UK planned/ available???
GTX needs to be offered in the US
Which is the fastest the speed? Or use of battery.
Can we talk about the charging port where you cannot open the right slide door if the buzz is charging? :D
You can though
Totally agree about the lights Thomas, I’m genuinely impressed with the functionality of that vehicle! Great review
I also wish they had the rounded headlights. But I wish they had brought a few of the features from their California over like the rail system for the seats to make layout a bit more configurable.
Hi Thomas, is it possible to take out the middle 2 seats in the LWB version 6 seater ?
Not officially, but it is just four screws and one electric connector per seat that need to be loosened to remove it, if it’s the same as the current version (very likely). Takes five minutes and it is just as easy to remount.
Having such a short frontal area means much less shock absorption capacity, resulting in a dramatically reduced passenger protection. Same for the third row seat passengers. A few years ago I was driving my Golf GTI on a highway and there was a sudden traffic slow down and I was rear ended by a big sedan and I'm happy I had no one on the back seats because the rear bumper was literally against the back of my seat. Had I had rear passengers, they would have been crushed to death.
Stop being so funny! 9.14 "Hello there" I'm
trying to cook Sunday lunch but I can't stop laughing. Loving this video and the iD Buzz.
hehe enjoy brother
perfect for weekend trips to alps or mediterranean... I still hoped GTX would have a bit more upscale interior than it is, for the normal versions yes, it/s perfectly fine utilitarian choice of materials and assembly in general, but on GTX especially with two-tone exterior I/d love to see that level of sportiness that it already is, but bit better in terms of overall coverage with upper scale materials
Great overview
Really like the ID Buzz
nice shaggin' wagon! 😁
Also helps in picking up the ladies for the shaggin looking so cool 😂
Think I want one. Better get saving! 💰
Nice van and I enjoyed the review. Let's hope the prices of EVs come out of the stratosphere soon. Getting people into them will convert many to electric propulsion. One of these with a real world 200+ mile range would be a good start.
The prices are still a little mad. The e-berlingo is £29-33k so almost half the price with a 200(160) mile range. The buzz is pretty but Vw are really bad value
Does this have the updated infotainment system and backlit buttons?
Yup
Round headlamps would've been nice, but people might confuse it with Porsche in the dark.
Very nice car in GTX. Probably a shame that there are no covers to block the floor when you remove the rear seats...
I my area I see VW Buzz only in showrooms, but not on the roads.
Missing - V2L, Camp mode, Dog mode, one pedal driving.... VW moving at a snail pace
V2L is already there with 230v outlet in my IDbuzz Cargo as an option
Isn't that run off the 12v battery with limited use....🤔
It would be more stylish if the rear taillights were vertical from bottom to top.
I love it❤😊
love it
Give us Porsche houndstooth fabric or hatched fabric from the older gti. Also would be great to upgrade the tray table to premium build with rear heated and massage seats. They should also allow you to build your own interior by selling components that clip into floor tracks. People could custom order their interiors components.
VW is getting back on track in my books! I like this. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
the augmented HUD is a new festure, isnt it?
Will the ‘Buzz’ have the defining VW minibus/MPV feature, that the sliding doors detach-fall off every time they’re opened after 40,000mi/46,000km? Won’t be a VW minibus if the doors stay on.
I like the 2 tone color combo looks really Nice end retro but futuristic at same time i would love to have this GTX version or any version but i can't afford it 😢😓😩 lol Nice fart music 😂
The logo is retro?
When is the camper version coming?
We have a non-GTX short Buzz, and are happy with most features on it, including the lights. Functional lights are important during Nordic winters, so I would not want retro styling that compromises safety. The towing capacity of the GTX short version = 1800 kg is now almost up to the capacity of our Citroën Evasion = 1900 kg.
Love it
There's so much investment in new ideas with VW EVs, as this vehicle proves, I would really prefer to go VW for my next company car in a couple of yrs, even after the current, brilliant, TM3LR, I have. Big hopes for the ID.3 next-gen models, but let's see what they can do with it, there're so many improvements that are desperately needed.
Das ist ein guter Van
Finally enough horsepower to be of some interest. Its just so disappointing that the sunroof doesn't open for ventilation. That's one of the most important aspect of the retro bus. In fact, VW my have been the carmaker that introduced it, or at least popularized it.
VW will make big sales if this one is equipped with engine .
Agree with wanting more rounded lights, but liking the GTX specs. I am excited about seeing more reviews on this model but I am afraid that this thing is going to be like 80k in the US...
If we even get it here.
I wish they would give a gasoline/diesel version
What a pity that the 2nd seats can’t be turned around like in the Multivan. If it did, I would buy it right away!
Well ! We need RTX version!
They really should've sold both wheelbases in the US.
avery cool car, but 400 km range is not so much and its very expensive ofcourse. and I wish the vw ID models would have a panoramic roof that you can open. thats something I need in my car.
VW may as well add a Porsche badge with the price of these things. Great video Thomas!
This is what ID BUZZ should have always been. I think the RWD LWB Style will be the pick of the range though.
This vehicle is amazing. Really want one of these. Not bothered about GTX. Dashboard has cheap feel to it.
Price is too much
.....Love the Pro Id Buzz, such a great family car, good work Volkswagen and btw lovely video as well Autogefuehl.....
thanks keep tuning in !
Great! Anything that gets flutes out of their stupid blacked-out, slammed, diesel T6 is a win in my book.
Hurrah.
Price?
The only good looking ID out there!
We are ready for the camper-version... Bring it on, VW.
Volkswagen isnt able to deliver waterproof slidewindows in the sliding doors, and now they are making them electric. Im in fear of...
Hey, that's 10 times the horsepower of my T1 bus 🚌!!!
I absolutely love this car. I hope it takes off.
Saw the buzz in a camping show in Melbourne, love the form factor, but...VW don't get it, the mass market want cheap transport, legacy auto spending dollars on maintaining branding to attract brand loyalists is ok but ultimately the product tech is mediocre and price is poor value. EVs are such a radical change that even brand loyalists are looking around to compare the tech...
Your command of mathematics at 11.10 is very impressive - you must have studied at a Max Planck Institute;) (I apologise for my British humour).
=)
if only vw hides rear windscreen whiper under the spoiler and gave id buzz steering wheel from passat.
This is so nice-- when is the US release date?🎉
Even less economical than the standard one 👌
I want the new era Volkswagen mid size camper van
Basic id buzz 70k plus in Ireland , there’s none on the road. Should have been a 6/7 seater from the start.
Very nice, but like most electric cars they’re far too expensive and would take you 5-10 years to break even against a combustion equivalent
A VW bus isn't a VW bus unless you can hear the aircooled engine. Maybe VW could install a sound file of the aircooled engine that syncs with the speed of this vehicle? ;)
Jurgon klopps lovechild
I find it a pitty that they don't, like BMW, offer on all platforms all engine types. It would be nice if the Buzz had a petrol, diesel and hybrid version as well. It would be sold much better. Now it is just a small niche product.
never call the "Multiflexboard" the "rear bench" - all the marketing guys are crying
Do we really need gtx id buzz? It’s freaking bus.😊
5:20 funny guy !
Two tone paint yes
The interior at least is much better than the og trims.
Buzz Cargo GTX ?
Hallo Thomas! Another great Review, nice work! Regarding your question, there is definitely a more spacious van with the same length as the LWB version, it is the V Klasse Kompact (or also the EQV i guess) with 4,90m in length. Between these 2 I would still probably go for the V klasse kompact. But regarding the SWB of the ID buzz, that is something unique since you do not have many options of this shorter length (4,7m) in the van segment. This is a great option for families living in the city like me (in Germany). Unfortunately though I am not ready for full electric yet but if there was something like the Buzz SWB as a hybrid I would buy it straight away.
Cheers m8!
