Volkswagen ID. Buzz 7-seat to appear at CarFest in UK debut

UK Debut at CarFest 2024

CarFest, the UK’s biggest family fundraising festival, will see the first appearance of the longer wheelbase version Volkswagen ID. Buzz.

Enhanced Features and Flexibility

The new 282bhp seven-seater is 250mm longer (4,962mm in total) than the standard model and benefits from an 86kWh battery with a range of around 291 miles. A total of 306 litres of space is provided behind the third row of seats, which can be increased to 2,469 litres overall when the second row of seats is folded. An abundance of travelling options means the third row of seats can be removed entirely, and the Multiflex board adjustable boot floor creates a second, completely flat, loading area.

Upgraded Technology

Upgraded technology on the seven-seater includes the latest ‘Discover Pro’ infotainment system with a larger 12.9-inch screen. It comes with better graphics and a more powerful processor.

Experience the ID. Buzz at CarFest

The new ID. Buzz will be located at the Craig & Karl designed Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles stand, the Buzz Stop, which takes inspiration from the vehicle’s features. There are now five, six and seven-seat configurations of the Volkswagen ID. Buzz available. Festival goers can test drive the five-seater version at the on-site Test Drive Centre.

Prices for the seven-seat ID. Buzz start from £59,545, with deliveries set for the end of 2024.

CarFest 2024 at Laverstoke Park Farm, Hampshire, runs from 23-25 August 2024. Tickets are available here.
