VW's ID. Buzz electric bus finally arrives in the US after delays.

The delay in the release of the Volkswagen ID.Buzz in the US was due to the need to get the packaging right for the unique design, regulatory market differences, and consumer feedback. Focus groups in America preferred the longer three-row model, which required a larger battery pack and a more powerful rear motor. The infotainment system was also improved based on customer feedback from the ID.4 crossover SUV. The ID.7 hatchback will serve as the launch point to ensure any issues are resolved before the ID.Buzz arrives in the third quarter of 2024.
