The US-spec Buzz has updated tech and a more powerful powertrain.

, the VW emblem on the front end of the American Buzz is illuminated, surely the largest light-up logo on any car. The available panoramic sunroof is new for the ID Buzz and is the largest in the VW Group, and it has an electrochromic tint that turns the glass from transparent to opaque.

Instead, the Buzz has square sections of the window that powerslide backward in the vein of the original Microbus. It’s great that there is some amount of window opening — the rear windows in the SWB Buzz don’t open at all — but the area that opens isn’t nearly as big as what you get in other vans or crossovers.Increasing the wheelbase allowed VW to make some major improvements to the powertrain. The LWB ID Buzz uses a 91kWh battery pack in place of the SWB Buzz’s 82kWh pack.

Other than the added seats and length, the design of the ID Buzz’s cabin is identical to the Euro version. The large windshield, additional quarter windows, and raised seating position provide a phenomenal view out, and the door panels have great ergonomics and armrests. The dash features a lovely faux wood panel, and each interior color scheme offers a mix of different colors and materials.

It remains to be seen how much better the updated system will actually be in practice, but anything would be. The ID Buzz has eight USB-C ports throughout, including in clever locations like the door panels and the top of the windshield for a dashcam, and there’s a wireless charging pad in the dash.
