ID. Buzz finally finding buyers, but don't mistake traction for triumph
VW's electric Kombi revival is moving units after a rough launch, but early sales momentum doesn't tell the full story. The ID. Buzz trades the air-cooled simplicity of the original for a 82-kWh battery pack and MEB platform—capable, yes, but fundamentally a different animal. Market conditions and pent-up nostalgia are doing the heavy lifting.
The ID. Buzz is a competent EV that happens to wear heritage branding. That's not nothing, but it's not the spiritual successor some want it to be.
