2025 VOLKSWAGEN ID.BUZZ -- A FUNKY ALTERNATIVE TO THE TOYOTA SIENNA??

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Volkswagen ID.Buzz Pro S with 4Motion is presented as a stylish and fun alternative to traditional minivans. Reviewers highlight its unique retro design, which garners significant positive attention, and its surprisingly spacious interior, particularly the generous third-row legroom and headroom. The electric powertrain offers brisk acceleration and a smooth driving experience, enhanced by standard features like adaptive LED lighting, a 13-speaker Harmon Kardon sound system (on Pro models), and heated/ventilated seats. However, the review points out significant drawbacks: a disappointing maximum range of 231 miles for the AWD version, which is deemed insufficient for long road trips, and a high starting price of $68,000 for the tested AWD Pro model. While praised for its practicality and unique appeal, the combination of limited range and high cost leads the reviewers to ultimately like it less than some competitors, despite its undeniable cool factor.
