Volkswagen ID. Buzz

Volkswagen ID. Buzz

You'll want the VW ID. Buzz because of looks alone - and there's more to it.

Volkswagen has trimmed down the ID. Buzz lineup in Ireland, dropping the short wheelbase, five-seat model, leaving only the long-wheelbase, seven-seater on sale. That’s not a bad policy as this is the Buzz in its best form. The extra length liberates enormous boot space, and genuine seven-seat capacity, with adult-sized space even in row three. The bigger battery also means a much more useable range, and the improved (but still fiddly) infotainment is very welcome too.
