CarTell take
We haven't driven the ID. Buzz yet. On paper, climate slider bar is unlit at night, frustrating in early production. Confirm the third row arrangement fits your family, removing seats requires storage space at home.
Why consider it
- The only electric LWB 7-seat people mover on sale in Australia.
- 200 kW DC peak, 10 to 80 per cent in around 26 minutes.
- Twin power-sliding doors, sliding second-row, removable third-row, 1,800 kg braked tow on every grade.
What to know
- Pricing starts at $75,990 for the Pro SWB, well above a Carnival HEV or Staria diesel.
- 452 km WLTP drops fast with full load and towing.
- 306 L boot with all seven seats up is tight against rivals.
