Written By: CarPro | Aug 25, 2024 10:32:08 PM

We can hardly believe it! Volkswagen is at long last sharing pricing and range info for the long-awaited VW I.D. Buzz. We say long last because the concept version debuted all the way back in 2017. 

The all-electric I.D. Buzz is the modern version of the iconic Microbus.  It's being offered in two trims plus a 1st-Edition launch model. Pricing starts with the Pro S at an MSRP of $59,995, Pro S Plus at $63,495, and the launch-only 1st Edition at $65,495. (Destination for all models add another $1,550.)

It is available with rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. At 100% charge, rear-wheel-drive models will offer 234 miles of EPA-estimated range and 4Motion all-wheel-drive models will offer 231 miles of EPA-estimated range.

VW is also sharing giving a first look at more of the interior cabin theme options. There are three.  Dune—which first seen at the ID. Buzz reveal in 2023—is a bright, airy, coastal-inspired interior, which pairs light grey leatherette seats with clay-colored piping and door inserts, along with a light wood-look dash.
