2025 Volkswagen ID.Buzz: Full Pricing and Range Details

This one has been a long time coming: you can now order the ultra-cool, ultra-spacious Volkswagen ID. Buzz in America. It's gorgeous inside and out, and is stylish enough to make vans cool again. But be prepared for sticker shock, as the starting MSRP is close to $60,000.

2025 Volkswagen ID. Buzz Review

Outside of the Tesla Cybertruck, one of the most buzz-worthy electric vehicles of the last couple of years has been the Volkswagen ID. Buzz electric van. A modern revival of the iconic VW Microbus from the sixties, the ID. Buzz will begin deliveries in the U.S. this year, and Volkswagen has finally released details about the pricing, trim levels and powertrain options for its latest new EV. All versions come very well-equipped, with a fun variety of color and trim choices.

This big, beautiful electric bus won't be cheap, but it's sure to turn heads everywhere you go.

What is the Range of the ID. Buzz?

In total, six separate configurations of this model will be available, providing buyers with a choice of six- or seven-seat configurations and rear- or all-wheel drive. All models for sale in the U.S. will come with a standard 91-kWh battery pack. Rear-engine, rear-wheel drive models have 282 hp and produce 406 lb-ft of torque. The all-wheel drive models up power to 335 hp, but will have slightly less range.

ID. Buzz Pro S Plus rear-wheel drive with 7 seats: 234 miles EPA estimated range
ID. Buzz Pro S Plus all-wheel drive with 6 seats: 231 miles EPA estimated range
ID. Buzz Pro S 1^st edition rear-wheel drive with 7 seats: 234 miles EPA estimated range
ID. Buzz Pro S 1^st edition all-wheel drive with 6 seats: 231 miles EPA estimated range

It’s interesting to note that only the rear-wheel drive versions of the ID. Buzz will be available with seven seats (with six seats available on the Pro S Plus), while all-wheel drive configurations only come with six seats.

VW ID. Buzz Trim Levels

What does each trim level offer? The lineup starts with the ID. Buzz Pro S, which already comes very well-equipped. You get keyless access and starting, 20-inch alloy wheels, power sliding doors and liftgate, and a large 12.9-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and a compact 5.3-inch digital driver instrument cluster. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, along with a wireless charger.

Available only in rear-wheel drive trim, the Pro S is the most versatile model thanks to its second-row bench seat, which gives it seven-passenger capacity. Up front, the two captain’s chairs have 12-way power adjustment, and they’re heated and ventilated as well. Upholstery is perforated leatherette, and there’s a choice of 30 different colors for interior ambient lighting.

The ID. Buzz Pro S Plus will be the most popular model, which adds a load of extra technology and luxury features. There’s a driver heads-up display, a surround view monitor with cameras, and a Harman/Kardon premium sound system. An electronically dimmable electrochromic glass roof is available as an option. There’s also a manually-retractable trailer hitch. Buyers can choose from a seven-seat rear-wheel drive model, or a six-seat all-wheel drive model with six captain’s chairs.

Finally, the ID. Buzz First Edition gets a choice of two-tone exterior finishes, unique 20-inch wheels, special badging, a roof rack, and a “coastal” inspired interior that has special upholstery, retro design floor mats, and a “flexboard” to create a flat floor when all the rear seats are folded. The electrochromic roof is standard, and buyers will get a set of unspecified “owner’s gifts.” Like the Pro S model, the First Edition is available as a seven-seat rear-wheel drive, or six-seat all-wheel drive.

Conclusion

Built in Hanover, Germany, and therefore ineligible for the federal $7,500 tax incentive, the ID.Buzz is a premium product, and the most expensive Volkswagen you can buy. We love its design inside and out, and its supreme versatility. Its design, space, and storage capacity would make it an ideal road-trip car, were it not for its slightly disappointing EPA range estimates.

Our experience with Volkswagen EVs, however, suggest that the brand's range estimates are conservative, and its vehicles regularly exceed what the EPA estimates, unlike some other electric vehicles. We can't wait to try this one for ourselves.
