EXPLORING THE NEW 2025 VW ID BUZZ CAMPER VAN: FEATURES, SPECS, AND ROAD TEST!

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Volkswagen ID. Buzz receives a significant update with the introduction of a long wheelbase (LWB) version and the performance-oriented GTX trim. The LWB model offers increased interior space, now accommodating up to seven passengers, with a vast cargo capacity of nearly 2,500 liters when seats are folded. The reviewer highlights the optional panoramic sunroof as a standout feature. While the Pro version offers good responsiveness, the GTX trim, with its dual-motor AWD and 340 PS, delivers a "night and day" difference in power and acceleration, achieving 0-100 km/h in 6.1 seconds. Real-world efficiency for the Pro was noted at 18.7 kWh/100km, considered average for its form factor. Charging is rapid, with the 86 kWh battery capable of 10-80% in under 30 minutes at up to 200 kW. Downsides include a relatively low payload for the Pro (41-596 kg) and significant wind noise at higher speeds due to the vehicle's size. Pricing for the LWB starts just under £60,000, with the GTX pricing yet to be announced.
