But with the larger size and extra row of seats aren't all that’s different about our version of VW’s instant-icon electric bus. Find out more about the 2025 Volkswagen ID. Buzz with Edmunds’ Lauren McCay in our First Look video above!

    Is VW giving America more to love with this long-wheelbase three-row ID. Buzz, or would you rather have the shorter two-row model? Let us know in the comments.

      @Soh90 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Don’t mind the LWB model, just wish it came with the less powerful motor (more range). Why does Americans need everything to be fast 😓
      P.S. Lauren is an absolute smoke show 😍 She should do all your videos lol.

      Shorter. My kids are mostly grown and I don't need the huge van. But I've always dreamed of reliving my San Diego childhood in my blue Volkswagen bus! I just don't need one that big 😢

    As an Uber driver, I see a perfect compromise, as per your video: Left rear seat removed. Then there's room for an extra passenger AND plenty of room for an airport run with suitcases. (Now if I can only figure out how to afford one as an Uber driver...)

    @CokeCheese 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    It looks good with the third row removed. I'd personally rather have more spacious front and second row seating with additional cargo room. Not another crammed seating arrangement while attempting to squeeze in a third row. It will be a shame if it ships with limited front leg room because of the above design decisions. But, that's just my garbage opinion. Anyway, it's different and has some interesting features. Hopefully it isn't 70k because it's electric. But it likely will be.

    • @AdarshGupta-be8gf
      @AdarshGupta-be8gf 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Looks like you missed the bit about more than enough legroom for people in excess of 6’2 even. The third row is on rails as well and can make 8” additional room without pulling out.
      And yes, you can just take the third row out and have your hot tub there.

    This is how a committee is assigned by our creator. Perhaps she or he is named Goddess or God. And needs a break. Hey: Angels, make a beautiful horse. Appaloosa.
    But its a committee. So they made a Camel instead of a Horse.
    Thats an old one!
    However, perhaps there are those who desire a Camel Buzz. For Mountain Bikes, etc.
    But not at soccer mom prices.

    I think this presenter would land up with a ship if all her feedback were implemented. What she calls flaws are unnecessary criticisms of great features. Like, who couldn’t hold a cup in their hands to be able to use the lower storage space in the center console bin? If you did in the unlikely event need to use both simultaneously.
    And, do you really expect a football field despite having 7 seats up?
