2024 VW ID BUZZ GTX - MORE PERFORMANCE & MORE APPEAL !

EV Channels Review

The 2024 VW ID. Buzz GTX is presented as a significant performance upgrade to the electric microbus, boasting 340 horsepower and standard all-wheel drive. The review highlights the distinct GTX styling cues, including unique bumpers, lighting signatures, and exclusive color options. Inside, the GTX trim offers premium microfiber seats with red contrast stitching and an upgraded 12.9-inch infotainment screen with new software and ChatGPT integration. The reviewer praises the spaciousness, particularly in the long-wheelbase version which offers an optional panoramic electrochromic roof and a flexible seven-seat configuration. Practicality is emphasized with ample storage, a versatile cargo area that can create an even loading floor, and increased towing capacity compared to RWD models. While the reviewer notes the short hood limits frunk space, the overall impression is of a well-rounded, appealing, and more performance-oriented electric van, though the GTX designation is exclusive to the European market, with North America receiving similar specs under a different naming convention.
