Volkswagen ID. Buzz review: it's worth the hype!

Uploaded 2 years ago by Auto Express

Video Summary

- It has been turning a lot of heads; appearance is a high point.
- It can hold lots of people and stuff.
- The tested model costs 62,000 pounds, but the base model starts at 57,000 pounds; the reviewer believes that this is worth it.
- Built on the familiar MEB platform with a single rear electric motor.
- Provides 201 brake horsepower, doing 0 to 62 in 10.2 seconds; not much to write home about.
- The range is 258 miles on a single charge.
- It's just so lovely to drive and feels completely in control when at the wheel.
- The visibility is fantastic.
- Big but it doesn't feel enormous.
- It makes you feel special, with its ride height, coloring, and the fact that people are looking and taking pictures.
- It's an effortless drive.
- There can be some wind noise at higher speeds due to its flat nose, but it is not a "clattery" van.
- A little bit of "oomph" behind it when you put your foot down.
- Every second of driving it was great, apart from the climate controls, as well as the rearview mirror.
- Touch-based climate controls are irritating to use; knobs are preferred.
- Rear window is massive, but rearview mirror covers too much of it.
- If you have kids, the all-white seats might not be the best idea.
- The boot has 1,121 liters of space.
- When you fold all the seats down, that's 2,205 liters of space.
- It charges at 170 kilowatts, so five to 80% charge in half an hour.
- Range goes from 2.8 to 2.7 miles per kilowatt when crew is inside, not bad.
