Volkswagen Canada has announced the highly anticipated arrival of the 2025 ID. Buzz, set to electrify Canadian roads later this year. This all-electric reimagining of the classic VW Bus combines retro-inspired design with cutting-edge technology, starting at $77,495.
Electrifying Performance Meets Timeless Design
The ID. Buzz offers impressive electric performance with its 91 kWh battery. Rear-wheel drive models deliver 282 horsepower and a range of 377 km, while the all-wheel drive versions boost output to 335 horsepower with a 373 km range.
Visually, the ID. Buzz pays homage to its predecessor with an oversized VW logo, short overhangs, and a spacious greenhouse. The vehicle stands out with standard 20-inch two-tone aluminum-alloy wheels and a vibrant color palette including Energetic Orange and Pomelo Yellow.
Interior Comfort and Advanced Technology
Inside, drivers can choose from three exclusive color schemes: "Cognac," "Dune," and "Moonlight." The ID. Buzz comes equipped with a 12.9-inch infotainment system, a 5.3-inch digital instrument cluster, and customizable 30-color ambient lighting.
Standard features include wireless phone charging, App-Connect, and Volkswagen's IQ.DRIVE advanced driver assistance system. The Park Assist Plus with Memory Parking function adds an extra layer of convenience for urban drivers.
Model Options and Pricing
The ID. Buzz lineup includes two main variants:
- 1st Edition RWD: Starting at $77,495, this model seats seven and includes features like heated and ventilated front seats and a Harman Kardon sound system.
- 1st Edition 4MOTION: Priced at $82,995, this all-wheel-drive version offers dual captain's chairs and additional two-tone color options.
Both models can be upgraded with an electrochromic panoramic roof for an additional $2,000.
A Modern Take on a Classic
Pierre Boutin, President and CEO of Volkswagen Group Canada, commented on the launch: "The ID. Buzz represents a perfect blend of Volkswagen's rich heritage and our commitment to an electric future. We're excited to bring this iconic vehicle back to Canadian roads in a thoroughly modern form."
The ID. Buzz aims to appeal to a diverse range of customers, from families seeking a stylish and practical vehicle to eco-conscious drivers looking for a unique electric option.
