5 NIGHTS, 3 CAMPSITES, 1 ID. BUZZ | OUR BIGGEST LEARNING

EV Channels Review

This video chronicles a five-night camping trip in a Volkswagen ID. Buzz, highlighting the practicalities and challenges of using an electric van for extended outdoor adventures. The reviewers detail their experiences across three distinct campsites in Washington and Idaho, focusing on sleeping comfort, food storage, and charging infrastructure. A significant learning was the difficulty in maintaining consistent heating overnight without draining the battery excessively, especially when plugged into an RV charger which automatically shuts off the climate control. While the ID. Buzz proved capable of reaching remote locations and served as a functional base, the reviewers emphasize the need for better planning regarding charging and essential supplies like cooking gas. Despite some discomforts, such as a hard mattress and cold nights, the overall sentiment is positive, appreciating the unique experiences and community encountered at charging stops and campsites.
