Volkswagen ID. Buzz Cargo

An electric commercial vehicle needs to fit the working day, rather than force the working day to fit around it. The ID. Buzz Cargo offers an official WLTP electric range of up to 277 miles, giving businesses the scope to cover a wide variety of urban and regional journeys between charges. 

When charging is required on the road, its maximum charging capability of 185kW can take the battery from 10% to 80% in around 30 minutes under suitable charging conditions. Overnight charging using a home wall charger provides another practical option, helping businesses start the following morning ready for work. 

The ID. Buzz Cargo combines up to 3.9m³ of load compartment volume with relatively compact exterior dimensions. 

That makes it particularly useful for operators who regularly work around towns, cities, residential areas or customer premises where space can be restricted. You gain a practical load area for tools, equipment or goods while keeping a car-like vehicle.

For those looking to carry passengers and luggage rather than cargo, the ID. Buzz people variant, with a choice of 5, 6, or 7 seats, would be the perfect choice. Find out more here.

Navigating narrow streets, car parks and restricted customer sites can add unnecessary time and pressure to a working day. The ID. Buzz Cargo has been designed with a compact footprint and a tight 12.6m turning circle, helping drivers position the vehicle confidently in tighter surroundings. 

Businesses can choose rear-wheel drive or optional 4Motion all-wheel drive. Volkswagen states that the 4Motion system is designed to improve road holding and safety in poor surface conditions. This gives operators another way to specify the vehicle around the environments in which it will actually work, rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.

Drivers can spend a significant part of their working day behind the wheel, so comfort and easy access to information matter. Volkswagen has equipped the ID. Buzz Cargo with a digital-focused driving environment that includes the Digital Cockpit alongside available radio, navigation and voice control functions. 

Driver assistance technology listed for the ID. Buzz Cargo includes Park Assist and adaptive cruise control, helping support drivers during common day-to-day situations. A multifunction steering wheel also keeps key controls within easy reach.
