Volkswagen has revealed ID. Buzz prices will start from £57,115 – and those keen to secure one of the first pure electric five-seat people carriers in the UK can now pre-book a place in the queue.
A £2,000 pre-booking fee can be placed with a Volkswagen Commercial Vehicle dealer between now and 30 June.
Pre-booking is only available on the passenger version, not the Cargo van variant.
All launch models will use a 77kWh battery, driving a rear-mounted 204hp engine. They will have an electric driving range of up to 258 miles.
The launch line-up will comprise Style and Life versions, alongside a bespoke 1st Edition model.
Life will cost £57,115, with Style priced at £61,915 and the 1st Edition costing £62,995.
Further variants will follow later.
Official ordering will open in July 2022; Volkswagen hasn’t yet confirmed when deliveries will commence.
The first pure electric model from Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, the ID. Buzz uses the same MEB architecture already seen in the ID.3 and ID.4. It slots into the range below the recent all-new Multivan.
To keep eco-minded fans of the original Volkswagen T1 happy, the interior is entirely leather-free and made from recycled synthetic materials.
Battery housings and wheels are made from ‘green’ aluminium, while even the tyres come from a low-emission factory.
