THE PERFORMANCE MICROBUS! VW ID BUZZ GTX (AWD)

EV Channels Review

The VW ID Buzz GTX is presented as the performance-oriented "microbus," boasting an all-wheel-drive system and a significant power upgrade to 340 hp. The review highlights the GTX's distinct sporty accents, including unique bumpers, honeycomb grille, and striking vertical light signatures. Standard IQ.Light Matrix LEDs and exclusive Cherry Red paint further set it apart. The GTX offers two lengths (SWB and LWB), with the LWB version featuring a larger 86 kWh battery and a panoramic electrochrome roof. Interior enhancements include microfiber seats with red contrast stitching, an upgraded 12.9-inch infotainment screen, and ChatGPT integration. While the reviewer praises the spaciousness and practicality, noting the flexible seating configurations and ample cargo space, they express minor reservations about the quality of the fold-out tables and the capacitive buttons. The towing capacity is also a key differentiator, with the SWB GTX offering 1.8 tons and the LWB 1.6 tons. Notably, the GTX branding is exclusive to Europe, with North America receiving similar AWD models but without the GTX designation.
