Overview

The Volkswagen ID.Buzz Cargo (2022-2024) is an all-electric rear-wheel drive cargo van. It came out in 2022. Volkswagen stopped making the Cargo in 2024 and replaced it with the Volkswagen ID.Buzz Cargo Pro (2024-…). The car is not available on the US market.

The Volkswagen ID.Buzz Cargo (2022-2024) has a 82 kWh battery pack, allowing it to travel up to 225 mi on a single charge — ranked №498 out of 833 electric vehicles.

How powerful is it? How fast does it accelerate?

The Volkswagen ID.Buzz Cargo (2022-2024) achieves a 0 to 60 mph acceleration in 9.8 seconds (placing it at №81 out of 116 ranked positions, among 768 electric vehicles, with some cars sharing positions) and attains a maximum speed of 90 mph.

Its powertrain provides a power output of up to 150 kW (201 hp) and a torque of 229 lb-ft.

How far can it go on single charge? What is the real-world range?

Volkswagen ID.Buzz Cargo (2022-2024) achieves a real-world range of 225 miles, placing it at №138 among 243 ranked positions. However, this range is subject to several influences:

Speed: Traveling at higher speeds reduces battery life.
Temperature: Extreme cold or hot weather can affect range.
Terrain: Hilly or mountainous landscapes decrease range.
Driving habits: Aggressive driving with frequent acceleration and braking consumes more energy.
Feature usage: Climate control and media systems also influence range.

It's important to acknowledge that these are estimations, and your actual driving range may differ. Consider these factors when planning your trip and be ready for potential charging stops.

Utilize the interactive EV Navigation map for trip planning assistance.

What charging options are available? How long does it take to charge it?
