Volkswagen takes us back to the 70’s with the production ID. Buzz.

2024 Volkwagen ID. Buzz

The day has come. Volkswagen has finally pulled the wraps off of the production ID. Buzz. Though the brand has produced various minivans and vans over the years, this is meant to be the truest reincarnation of the Microbus. Only details on the short wheelbase European model were divulged, but envision it a little longer and you’re looking at the U.S. version. Riding on the MEB platform, it will initially be offered with an 82-kWh battery putting out 201 horsepower and 229 lb.-ft. of torque. Europe will get a cargo variant as well, but it sounds like that isn’t making the trip across the Atlantic. More details here.

It seems the design you see above is extremely close to production, as the real thing was spied earlier this week looking exactly like this. The greenhouse and overall body shape looks to be identical to the concept, though the discovery also revealed the production interior. Take a look at all of the photos for yourself here.

In the aftermath of Rivian’s bait and switch antics, the company is being hit with a lawsuit. Consumers and shareholders alike claim Rivian failed to tell investors it had underpriced its electric vehicles. The lawsuit aims to hold the startup responsible for this neglect for transparency. Shareholder Charles Larry Crews is the one carrying out the suit, claiming Rivian concealed how its R1S SUV and R1T pickup truck were so underpriced that it needed to raise prices soon after its November initial public offering.
