Since its launch in 2022, the ID. Buzz has been living up to its name and
there's also a great deal of excitement about the prospect of a campervan based
on the platform, which is designed to evoke the iconic shape of the much-loved
VW Transporters of old. With a design that evokes the iconic looks of VW’s T1
and T2 ‘splitty’ and ‘bay window’ campervans but equipped with cutting-edge
technology, the ID. Buzz brings innovation to VW campervans.
CamperKing, the Warwickshire-based campervan manufacturer is awaiting
imminent delivery of a number of ID. Buzz vehicles to commence development of an
electric campervan based on the platform.
The prospective campervan would include the same mod cons as all CamperKing
conversions; cooking facilities, an onboard fresh water tank, comfortable double
beds including one in a pop-top roof, a heating option and plenty of storage.
With plenty of interior space and up to 258 miles of electric range, the ID.
Buzz boasts the latest EV technology including fast charging at up to 170kW,
meaning the 77kWh battery can be replenished to 80% capacity in around 30
minutes.
The VW ID. Buzz’s equivalent maximum output of 204 PS can accelerate the
electric vehicle from 0 to 62mph in 10.2 seconds. Whilst the agile ability of
the vehicle provides it with a small turning circle of just 11.1 metres, meaning
that the vehicle can easily be steered around everywhere from narrow city
streets to the tightest of campsite pitches.Volkswagen has launched two
versions of the Buzz, the passenger-carrying Style and the panel van Cargo.
The VW ID. Buzz Cargo is the version of the ID. Buzz CamperKing will be
using as the base vehicle for a VW ID. Buzz campervan. This is currently
available in two trim levels, the ID. Buzz Cargo Commerce and the ID. BUZZ Cargo
Commerce Plus. Discover the highlight features of these vehicles below:
