Thomas, what watch are you wearing?
This is the type of EV I've been waiting for. Forget the sedans and crossovers. This is a practical vehicle for so many people.
agree, too bad only electric though
@@feels3 why not electric if this is the future 🤔 why people can't give up to combustion 🤷
@@bestofalllife I do 1000km in my current car without refueling. That's why. Here, you have another car with max 500km in city driving and 300km on highway (even less if you look at 80% charging rule and we talk about perfect conditions, imagine range on highway with low temps, with extra roof box and 2 bicycles on the back and entire family inside - that's what I do quite often ) . They are great for city driving for sure, but that's not enough for me. If range goes like 2x or more comparing to what we have these days then I'm jumping in.
It's completely USELESS for families with 3+ children! With 7 seats, there's no luggage room!! EQV is much better.
@@Symbrio of course it is because cannot compare even with T7
When you close the Tesla door like that, it sounds like it's about to break or there's broken plastic inside the door. This car is solid
Don’t agree about the Tesla part, but VW sounds solid. What about the software on VW, solid?
@@Harrythehun Yepp, the 3.x is pretty much solid. Could be a little bit faster, but otherwise it‘s ok.
@@Harrythehun LOL you think Tesla software is good? The garbage that is supposed to enable self driving and crashes into children? That software?
@@Harrythehun Yeah they spend a lot of design time to make it sound that way. It's meaningless.
@@Harrythehun All modern cars have shitty software. VW software is broken, Tesla will disable the car remotely if you don't agree with their terms, BMW has a subscription for heated seats. Just give me a car with no software please! I don't want any license agreements, subscriptions, or forced updates. 🌈
As a kid in the 70s I grew up camping in the VW camper van. They have a special place in my heart. ❤️
Thomas, while you are with VW high level management , can you please tell them that the second and third row seats of Buzz Long Wheelbase versions need to be removable just like T7.
And that we need three independent seats with ISOFIX on the second raw, like the Sharan and Touran. Not sure which master brain designs lately the cars at the VW group…
@@michalis13 the bean counters are the ones making those design decisions ultimately… The interiors have been very cut-back.
Exactly!!!
I do like the Buzz a lot, I think VW have done a great job with it. One MAJOR problem, I cannot believe that they did not replicate the rear seat/cargo area from the T7 Multivan with the alloy seat runners allowing for part or full removal of the seats. The rear interior packaging and flexibility of the Buzz is a fail as a consequence. Thanks Thomas, enjoyed the video and your in depth information. Long live the Kombi. Greetings from Australia.
This is going to come later and is also going to be part of the longer version from the start. They are doing that to save costs while ramping production and while I don't like it they sold almost the complete stock for this year before today's videos even came out.
@@Adrian-jn9ov VW should skip all seat colours to save money and “supply” complexity.
I wish to hear your intro quote "In full HD, full screen and full length, Let's Go." I love it, please bring it back.
This car as a camper would be the dream adventure car for me. I would pick the green and white combination with the same interior, just has something about it. Love that it is completely animal free too. Impressed with the range as well. A bit pricy but worth the money for the looks and nostalgia in my opinion. I feel round taillights would be a bit too much for me, so like it as it is. By the way, great to see you in my local area of Copenhagen, Thomas. Loved that bit of Danish too. Hope you enjoyed. Thank you for another great review. Auf Wiedersehen aus Kopenhagen!
How can it be an ideal adventure car? It's way smaller than the normal VW campervan, it's basically just as big as an older Ford Galaxy. Also, i can't really understand how a plastic interior can be better than real leather interior, since real leather lasts almost indefinitely, while plastic is...well, damn plastic. And no, contrary to what he says in the video, most plastic is not recycled.
Just let people enjoy things and have different perspectives
Really surprised they did not go with round lights..forgive the pun....... but not the brightest decision.
The front is lazy and ugly no need to avoid words.
Never apologize for a pun.
We can hope it'll arrive in the next generation, I like this class of EV and I think it got some potential
Wow they need this in the US asap. They'll sale as much as they can make! Better than trash Tesla.
It'll be useless in US, with such a limited range. Besides, it's cheaply made , even though it costs an arm and a leg, just like Tesla.
Nice! Was waiting for this one. Great job as usual Thomas 💚
Great review as always. Thank you. I love this car - I love that they are doing something different and bold. I really hope its a success for them. Also - your danish accent is pretty good Thomas :)
Thanks Tomas for messurment of the seat high. You are the best . Best regards from Icelandic taxi driver.
What a very interesting vehicle so many options in range . Enjoying the content on your channel keep up with the good work 🎥👍👍
Best ID Buzz review ive seen, thanks!
Best reviews on yt, that's for sure. Thank you. Buzz will the most beautiful, small camper ever for short local journeys and or winter. Unfortunately it doesn't cut it for bigger adventures. For that reason I choose sprinter L2 h2.
The blue and white colours looks and i wouldn't mind the yellow and white as it looks more fun. Great detailed video.👌
That door closing sound is pure ASMR.
Autogefühl at Amager Strand in Denmark! So cool to see. Hope you got a chance to enjoy Copenhagen as well as the ID Buzz. Can't wait for the camper versions of the Buzz...
definitely looks very nice, better than most SUVs on the road. Comfortable? Yes.
High overview and small hood = excellent visibility.
P.S. I'd be surprised if there is a car salesperson (in USA) that knows and shows more about the car than Autogefuhl. It should be a mandatory training video for salespeople.
The US should get the smaller size model.
There's no excuse for not back-lighting the lower infotainment panel. How difficult could it be?!
That would be too much for comrades engineers in VW.
Love the shape of the ID Buzz!
This is the best review about ID Buzz. Like the green one and blue. Hope soon I will get it. Thank you
It's the perfect size. I find it ridiculous that North America has to get a longer version.
I'd def buy one if i had the cash. Looks super cool, can't wait to see them turned into campers
Finally. It's really here!
An exacting positive review. Hope it comes to the USA. Make a dent into this weird pickup culture we have. 90 percent are not working trucks. Just wanna bees... Thank you.
As a minivan driver, I’m very excited for this. However, it seems to lack the functionality and versatility of the US minivans, which defeats the purpose of driving a van.
Thank you for the very thorough review. If VW doesn't get too greedy with the price, they'll sell lots of these.
what’s too greedy? last time i checked, this was $80k (with options). i am very underwhelmed with the design (and lack of bespoke interior) and tech. so, for me, it’s too expensive for a meh car.
It's almost 50k€ for 200 miles they are greedy :/
@@emiliendurand640 50K€...without VAT!
I really like the seat highest measurement, please included on other reviews! :)
Volkswagen really put some good work on this bus! I do really love all that much of options.
Excellent review!
I went over that same bridge on a Scandiavian roundtrip many years ago and I was fascinated by it!
I love it! Only wish they would have stuck to nostalgic round headlights!
Awesome vehicle. Very cute and practical. Can't wait for the AWD model's acceleration figures though!
“Let me know if you want round headlights”… “maybe I can push them..”
LoL!!!!!
Great Review Thomas, as always. I like the new ID Buzz design and I think it will be the right car for so many peoples. Cheers DrDuu
beste Grüße =)
I absolutely love the white on navy blue my favorite color combination navy is my favorite color 😍
VW ID Buzz looks good inside & out ... Slainte' ! Cheers !
Very good video thank you. Interested to see what happens in the winter months charging and defrosting windows how much battery life it uses.
I like the two color option. To me cargo set up is as important as passenger set up so folding/removable rear seats are important. Round headlights would have better matched the old vans but these look good. I am having trouble imagining how round headlights would look on this.
I would like to see the shorter one here in the US.
Does the multiflex board support the weight of a person crawling / laying on it?
I'm reading conflicting reports as to whether the seats will be removable. The 5 passenger SWB van that's on the market right now, the seats look to be fixed, and they are using that board thing to make a flat load floor. Odd design since the gas powered VW van has the rail system that lets you rotate and remove the seats, and works very well. I hope the US market LWB 3 row van has the rail system, because removing the seats to fit cargo is a better solution that that awkward and height robbing board system they are showing.
The best review so far! Thanks. Shame there are no more cool family cars! Those with a 3 or 4 kids, there are no more cars in Europe that can cater for them.
Yesss Thomas, Round lights with all the led matrix tech is the prefect light for the look! Now for the price. Eeeek. Hope they get a bigger battery for the lwb, it needs longer range here in America where the charging network is rather awful.
That's a fantastic vehicle. I agree with you, Thomas, because you're the man, it would be better with the round headlamps.
This actually looks quite good and even something I'd consider using for my work where I drive 20,000+ miles per yer BUT the VW software is so incredibly bad. I currently have a 2021 VW T-Roc and today the Android Auto just stopped working for no reason for about 90 minutes, then randomly started up again. It does that a lot, and its incredibly irritating. Until VW really sorts out its terrible software, there's no way I would consider getting another one
Really like the green color option, definitely would buy it just too expensive for me unfortunately 😔
Round headlights definitely would have been a welcome design change.
Thanks for a detailed review, Thomas. Looks like it might be difficult to fit an after-market compressor fridge even in the long wheelbase version. The other things for us in North America are supply, and getting software updates. Nice van, though.
I'm agreed with you about color I will pick white/ dark blue 💙
This couldn't be compared to T7 unfortunately 😔 Vw has done it again 🤦 very good job 👏 Thomas 🥂❗
Very nice car I love it, better than caddy, thank you very much Thomas 👍🏻🍰
Schön!👍
Danke from Malmö Sweden!
Great video Thomas! I still don‘t understand why there will be no 7 seater for the short wheelbase. You can get a touran with seven seats. Six seats is not very practical imo
More and more I start to wonder why many cars have prominent buttons for drive modes. Who changes drive mode (that often) than you need a dedicated button for it? I think it's something that could easily be put in a submenu, so the button can be dedicated to a more useful functionality.
Yes for round headlamps!
Awesome video. more minivans please:) i sold my Cupra 300 to get a minivan 😄
Should have known Thomas were in copenhagen so i could have stood out there like a fan boy.. another good review
Wonderful videos, thank you
I have a fully loaded first edition coming hopefully in December. I have gone for the blue and white
Yes round headlights for me. It would make it look even more timeless rather than trendy. The interior is almost perfect and also timeless except for the steering wheel.
But that front lower air intake design is the very first thing i would change, its just awful and doesnt match the rest of the car. Lastly, it would be nice to have more color choices, and also not just white for the upper portion.
I like the blue/white and mint/white combinations.
I'm not surprised it's the same length to EV6/Ionic 5. They have more rear legroom than this from the reviews I've seen.
Navy Blue for me thank you Thomas. All are nice though.
I appreciate what they did with the headlights. A car can't only be retrospective, it also needs some elements that connects it to the present with contemporary cars and contemporary technology (like led, matrix etc). Round headlights would make it look like its was trying to mimic the type 1 microbus too much. Now, the ID Buzz is its own car, with its own design, albeit with some clear flirting back to the original. That's my take at least!
Thanks for the feedback!
You’re right, round headlights. After the Beetle, maybe the Passat of 2007-10 has the best looking?
Yes Thomas round headlights
TOTALLY RIGHTEOUS ! RIGHT ON VW !
Pretty awesome video haha 🌈
Nice you are in Denmark👍🏻👍🏻
I LOVE THE BLUE!
Yes , I would like round headlights and oval vertical tail lights. Also change the funny looking front grill to a simple horizontal grills design.
I think that is very stupid from VW to not put 3 independent passenger seat in the rear seats. A family of 5 with 3 young kids cannot use 3 isofix chairs... I agree with what you were saying, this is more to compete with SUVs and not Multivan... Great review Thomas. Continue your great work. Cheers from Portugal
Agree on round headlamps
When you live next to the beach in California, you go for the fun colors. I wouldn’t call it screaming out colors. The subtle combinations work well for the weather in Germany.
That looks awesome. Hope VW launch in Dubai
Dark blue and white 💪
This'll be too pricey for Cornish surfers 😜
Thanks for the review. Very good.
I loved the concept bus with the beautiful lines and the seats sliding front and back. Pity that the production ends up like a Aziatic mini bus without any feeling in the past anymore except the two line paint.
What I’d like more than round headlights is better ventilation in the back. Roll-down windows in the sliding doors and/or vented windows in the back would be helpful; even better would be air vents for heat/air conditioning. Some other reviewers have pointed out this lack of air flow in the back, and I really hope this situation is improved for the US market (especially since it’ll be even bigger and will have even more ventilation needs).
He never even mentions that the rear windows can’t be moved. Like it’s normal or something when not a single other manufacturer sells a single model like that.
This is a good car from VW (ignoring the touch capacitive buttons). I hope VW continues to bring back what they were known for, quality and driving. Let's see how the ID Aero turns out to be!🤞
Teal and white is how I'd order my ID Buzz
Yes, pity they remained with the Infotainment Centre/Console. They had seen the people were not happy with it, via the ID 3, a long while back. Great looking car, but marred by the bad plasticaly Habtic buttons, and Infotainment Centre.
Yes please for the round headlight
Awsome thanks😁👍🏾👍
Yes, round headlights!
orange everywhere combo for me :)
Most of my driving is on small roads around small English towns and villages. I therefore am looking for something like a VW Caddy camper.
Yellow and orange are very visible and therefore safer. I believe safety is very conservative. I am less inclined to move towards camouflaged colours. Especially greys.
Just did a maxed out spec on the configurator for fun - £68,700 😮
Ouch. 😥
Thomas it is great that VW have will make the id range animal free from torcher interiors
Blue and White 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hope they offer the front bench seats on the passenger version
support round lights (!) but still a great looking vehicle
I would love if they would release a camper version like the vw t6 california.
Yes I would like to see a film of you walking into VW HQ and ask the designer what the F he was thinking not doing round lights
My favorits are the yellow or green turquoise colors
Huge thumbs up
The white tops are great for the heat of the desert.
I LOVE the height. I HATE having to try to stoop down into a vehicle.
Turquoise with round round headlights would be great.
I like the van and the burnt orange color.
I want a Skoda Version with a proper interior. I hate the crappy touch controls!
