Buying decision

EvCompass verdict

A weight of 2,755 kg takes its toll: a year of driving costs about PLN 5,193 in energy, and 100 km PLN 34.5. When the frosts come, the range drops to about 285 km.

Stops on a trip are short, as 10–80% takes 29 minutes. From an 11 kW wallbox the battery charges to full in 9 hours 15 minutes.

The ID. Buzz line includes versions with a smaller battery and shorter range. The long-wheelbase GTX pairs an 86 kWh battery with AWD and seven seats.

Best suited to

With the seats folded the ID. Buzz holds 2,469 litres, and the hitch takes a trailer of up to 1,600 kg. It works for a family holiday as well as for moving house.

Strong points

A small passenger van in our catalogue has a median real-world range of 235 km; the ID. Buzz GTX has far more, 380 km.
Its 199 kW DC peak is almost twice the 101 kW class median.
