Volkswagen ID.Buzz
The Volkswagen ID.Buzz is a modern electric interpretation of the iconic VW Type 2 and has quickly become one of the most recognisable electric MPVs on the market.
Volkswagen introduced a long-wheelbase version of the ID.Buzz with seating for up to seven passengers. The larger version offers multiple seating layouts, including five-seat, six-seat, and seven-seat configurations, making it suitable for growing families and group travel.
The extended wheelbase also allows space for a larger battery pack and increased range compared to the standard model, while the additional power improves overall performance and motorway driving capability.
