Looks nice but as an EV its mediocre just like the rest of the ID series. Poor range, efficiency, no ota updates and crap software. Probably gonna be expensive too.
I wanted to add, this is THE BEST channel for all things new cars. Such a great watch. Top marks! It’s the way you deliver the info makes all the difference! Truly!! New car reviews are dime a dozen, so this is what sets you apart from the rest.
Like the way the back seats don't just fold down but are removable. Great that you can drive around experiencing the world with your VW badge illuminated. Looks like a party bus.
This is the very first time I ever heard you not “ZONK” anything about a vehicle,, lol 😂 ..I’m not much of a foreign vehicle fan, but I gotta say, this vehicle is nice 👍🏽 and it brings back memories of the original buzz
oh oh I love that the 3rd row of seats can be removed, I freaking love that. gives you flexibility for more cargo room & not be forced to deal with a 3rd row taking up half of rear storage. is this a sign that VW is about to strike again? I hope so. brilliant review - you have streamlined yours style & this is the example of Joe Raitit kicking butt. there goes my hero -
I think the ID Buzz was well thought out, although I would like to see a full bench seat up front that's optional and a storage space or deeper console. And roof racks for bikes and skies, camping items. Also a automatic step up bar for the driver and passenger is a must. And last but not least bigger wheels. The wheels should be a standard 22" inch. I like the longer wheel base for the price I think it will be worth it. I hope they have keyless entry that your mobile device can control.
I've never been more excited about a vehicle as much as I am about this one. Looks great!!! You had me at "The kid you hate the most"!!! 😂 Great reviews.
Love it! As long as the price isn’t ridiculous, I’m going to see if the wife will go this route. She’s not a car person like I am, but she does love classic VWs, like the Bus, Bug, and Karmann Ghia. And so I think she’ll love this modern take on a classic idea. Thanks for sharing Joe and Steven. Cheers
I’m usually not a Volkswagen guy but I’d definitely consider this if I need a family hauler and wanted an EV!! Definitely nailed the styling with this!! 👽🛸
Loving the ID Buzz. When you talked about throwing the kid you hate the most in the 3rd row, Kevin from Home Alone came to mind 😂😅 Love your videos Joe, and great job Steven.
Depends on the price. Once that is established, one can make comparisions for similar priced vans to compare features and decide which vehical gives you the best deal for the money. I currently have a Dodge Caravan that all seats fold flush into the floor so it can be a cargo van or a 7 passenger van depending on your needs for the day. The best part is I never have to remove seats. I've had vans in the past I had to remvove the seats and it's a hassle to lift out and store until you want to put them back in again. Back in the day, the VW bugs and buses where not that expensive compared to other vehicals offered, but not sure if the new VW Buzz with fit that catagory of pricing.
Great review Joe, love that VW decided to bring the bus back. i would have liked it more with the classic round headlights. Also, that cheese grater lower front bumper looks cheap to me. The interior looks well sorted and roomy to the very back. I just hope dealer markups are kept in check.
Will there be plug in hybrid version atleast? Want to get Vans only for the long trip which should not cause any kind of anxiety with reapect to fuel range.
Woah Joe, you surprised me brother! I though it would be the ID 7. Well this definitely is some twist considering they got rid of the Beetle. Keep going woth these surprises Joe cause you are 4K away from 1 Mil!!!!
Joe, I always enjoy watching your reviews. I've been following your channel for so long that I feel like we are friends! The ID Buzz...... I love it! I love it! I love it! As long as the price isn't too steep, then, I do believe this just may be my next vehicle. I thought it was going to be a new Jeep Wrangler, but, maybe not. I just love my 2003 VW Beetle and it has never let me down yet. Thank You! Keep up the good work!! 🚙🚙🚙🚙
Great short pants buddy. Wearing shorts is perfect for sunny California with the iconic surfer van. oops I meant buz . I just wish you had a matching blue shirt . The camera loves that popping ocean blue color. Color even matches the comment button lol. Electric motor is genius adding so much interior space. And the interior color is so bright and natural. 👍
2 kinds of cars in the world VW and the rest perfectly blended retro/modern style,282 hp on the single motor is sweet but 330 hp 400+torque is even sweeter💯🙌🏽 cool review
Now That The ID BUZZ Is Out , There 's Tons Of Videos Out There On It - But - But - Wait For It JOE 🤔 😅 😬 - Your 's IS Always ON TOP OF THE HEAP 👏 👍 🏆 👏
It looks so nice! It seems that third row with all that space is too upright. None of the videos had shown that it can be reclined at least a few degrees.
I have been watching the European commercials for this vehicle since last year and am SO excited to see an American release date. As a retired teacher, I'm going to save all my pennies and get a job to afford it but I'll do it!!
As Raiti was showing us the LWB VW Bus, I was dreaming of taking that bus to a chop-shop and installing a 2000 cc engine/manual trans along with a gas tank.
Dual motors meaning a gas option? Because this would be useless for USA highway travel without a gas option. I'm very interested in the new vans from VW, but if they think USA infrastructure is ready for an all-electric travel van they need to think again. I had to pay to ship my electric car from California to Texas because there simply is no option to drive that distance on electric.
Can’t wait to see one in person!! Would like to see the back with all seats folded down. Is it completely flat and how much vertical space is leftover? Need room for boards! Surf, foil, kite, snow….
Im so mad they took away the floating spinning gnome from the dashboard. I saw it a few years back at the LA auto show as a concept car. If anyone doubts it i have a video of it
AWD must be standard. This isnt a dodge caravan its massive Fyi i watched multiple preview videos of this car. Yours was the best. ❤ u bro And who wants a car this massive not awd for safety Otherwise why not just buy an suv If they dont overprice this by add stupid expensive interior materials and other junk to justify price gouging this car will fail Just make it cheap, no one needs fancy materials for an adventure van Although tbh, in todays world with everything being so close. Long trips to any beach or campsite arent common So in a way a standard jeep will do or a ford bronco So idk, this car is a fun buy not a need
Even without it an engine it’s still nice they brought a dead model back for the the people that liked this vehicle and didn’t mess it up like the Mach e and the new charger ev
I’m loving the new ID buz, so reminiscent of the old micro busses of days past! I had two busses in my youth and have been so excited about this one! I can’t wait to get my hands on one! 😊,
I am a VW van fan, and I want an EV. This is super cute, I love it, I love it. I'm 6'1" tall, so interior space is essential when considering a vehicle. Depending on what the price is, one suggestion to the product developers is, right off the bat, I'd like the logo to be reduced in size and the id buzz removed from the front. Just saying, It's too much product placement.
The ID Buzz will be a hit!
I agree with you!
Hope they make a hippie version

My 2003 Eurovan can do this as well. Altho rear-facing seat, that seat is removable.
Wish this had a Westfalia option like earlier models.
This is so very true!
My wife doesn’t know it yet but we are buying one!! I love it. Brings back so much childhood memories going on trip with my uncle and cousins.
That is really fantastic!
“Dealer Market Adjustment” will definitely be reasonable 😂
It will be crazy!
I know two college friends that had the Volkswagen Bus that will love the ID Buzz when it comes available. Thanks for the review Joe.
This is the very first time I ever heard you not “ZONK” anything about a vehicle,, lol 😂 ..I’m not much of a foreign vehicle fan, but I gotta say, this vehicle is nice 👍🏽 and it brings back memories of the original buzz
It is a pretty iconic vehicle.
Every vehicle made is foreign 🤣🤣🤣
I absolutely love your reviews. You are on point, funny, and very consistent in how you present. Hats off to you.
Love it! The third row leg room is incredible!
MASSIVE

This is one EV I would buy, especially being a family of 6! Great review and thank you Steve!
We appreciate your support so much!
Lol. You’re first before Doug with the long wheel base. Good job
Thanks my friend! I really appreciate you taking the time to say that.

As a VW salesman I am very excited 😊
Oh I bet you are for sure!
It looks very exotic, loved it.
I am so happy to hear that!

I would consider a hybrid or turbo diesel, but not an EV. Especially at $70k, with a battery replacement cost of $40k.
Woah Joe, you surprised me brother! I though it would be the ID 7. Well this definitely is some twist considering they got rid of the Beetle. Keep going woth these surprises Joe cause you are 4K away from 1 Mil!!!!
I am glad to really bring the surprises.
4K more subs to 1mil ! Let's go Joe!
Heck yeah Dan! We can do it!

Thanks for being so supportive and having my back! I am glad that zi can share my car passion with you!
That 3rd row looks amazing room-wise
This is the only BEV I would consider buying captains chairs in the back and no 3rd row is how I would roll.
That sounds like a plan!
If this comes in at $25-$30K I will definitely be getting one! - WW
Joe, just killing it usual! 💪
Thanks for taking the time to say that!
The ID Buzz is AWESOME. I need a 4WD one now. Just waiting for the final info on price and range.
1 million 1 million 🎉🎉🎉 soon
Thanks for being on this journey with me!
I love it Joe and Lori and keep up the good work and I love the video💯💯💯👍
You are the best Dominic!

This thing is gonna sell crazy. Very cool
I've seen the notifications for other reviews done before yours but i waited specifically for yours. Good job.
You're the door panel guy for me. Lol
Thanks for saying that Colin!
I NEED it! Release it NOW! 🎉
Almost a mili subs and yet no sponsorship from Hostess
😂
That would be awesome!
Almost 1,000,000 subscribers!!!❤
We are getting so super close for sure!
Awesome! It needs to come with some flower power stickers or magnets!
"is it an suv?" Lol, Joe you slay me
Does the id buzz offer towing as a option.I heard there is a lever just inside the rear hatch to swing down a tow bar.
I really want this car to do well. Im just worried dealers might mark it up. 😢
Oh I guarantee there will be markup in the beginning for sure!
ID Buzzz will be minivan of the year in 2024
I think you may be right!
Almost 1M ❤
Been following you for a while and absolutely love your reviews!! Do you know when is VW going to release ID Buzz in North America?
Thank you for being on the journey with me. By the end of this year!
Interest will depend on the price. If they price it right I'm interested. If it's $95K I'll stay with my Jeep Rubicon.
We will see what happens with the price!
2 kinds of cars in the world VW and the rest perfectly blended retro/modern style,282 hp on the single motor is sweet but 330 hp 400+torque is even sweeter💯🙌🏽 cool review

This looks so cool. I would totally drive one with an electric dog 🐕 as my co pilot
Now we are charging up!
This is very cool ✌🏼
I am so glad that you are loving this one Bob!
I would love to see VW offer this in SWB and LWB versions.
Thanks Joe!
You are so very welcome Tom!
This would probably get me into car camping again! Can’t wait for you to drive it. Hope they put in a bigger screen for production.
It looks so nice! It seems that third row with all that space is too upright. None of the videos had shown that it can be reclined at least a few degrees.

This is a REAL third row
You better believe it!
Oh Boy, I have been waiting for this one! Can’t wait for you to test drive it….thanks for sharing once again! Alex from LA
I am so glad that you like this one Alex!
It has me buzzing! Love that van style, so many good options for vehicles in 2024 and beyond. Just need prices to come back down a bit...
It's going to be interesting to see how prices go!
That's an amazing vehicle but they should definitely have some big screen TVs on the back of the headrest ❤
I have been waiting for the ID buzz to hit the USA market
It’s the Scooby-Doo van for the 21st century.
Where is shaggy?
As Raiti was showing us the LWB VW Bus, I was dreaming of taking that bus to a chop-shop and installing a 2000 cc engine/manual trans along with a gas tank.
Now we are talking!
That thing is looking pretty dope!

now i want one , growing up in brazil my uncle had one 1980's , i would love to have one , and your channel is fantastic
That is so very cool. I really appreciate your support Rita!
Can’t wait to see one in person!! Would like to see the back with all seats folded down. Is it completely flat and how much vertical space is leftover? Need room for boards! Surf, foil, kite, snow….
I love this ID Buzz. The seating is perfect for someone who has a bad back. I can't wait to one.❤
So sad it's probably long base model don't be available in europe. Also it would be awesome if they make same but hybrid version
Why don't you do your homework. The long wheelbase version is coming to Europe. Why the hell would they make a hybrid version? It's an EV.
You are correct!
Fantastic review--and a shoutout to California bagels! Really looking forward to the first drive, Joe.
Love it! Yes, it checks all the boxes. I think it's a wrap! I'm going to get one!
Lovely. Excellent. Best Wishes- I am surprised at the number of reviews you do. Good Luck.
I just love bringing my car passion to you! Thank you for letting me share it everyday!
Needs to have a Hybrid option, or perhaps have an onboards generator that can recharge periodically to extend range some.
One Million Subs! Comin up!
Take my money now wow this brings me some great memories
Electrified Twinkies lmao. Your a hoot brother. Love the reviews.
Im so mad they took away the floating spinning gnome from the dashboard. I saw it a few years back at the LA auto show as a concept car. If anyone doubts it i have a video of it
I know that I can't afford it, my price point a pretty low lol, but I've been waiting for it. So happy to see this.
I am glad that I can share it with you!
Looks great. They need to improve the touchscreen. Can tell it’s not super responsive and laggy.
Now that’s a 3 row ! 😎. Just needs a camper version ……..with solar panel on roof
I am sure that it is coming.
It's nice. Maybe Volkswagen could bring back the Beetle as an electric vehicle. I want to see that happen. Good job, Joe and Lori
I am sure it will be happening!
I’ve been waiting for a fully electric mini fan replacement for our 2015 sienna. This looks promising! Hope it comes in either black or gray!
AWD must be standard. This isnt a dodge caravan its massive
Fyi i watched multiple preview videos of this car. Yours was the best. ❤ u bro
And who wants a car this massive not awd for safety
Otherwise why not just buy an suv
If they dont overprice this by add stupid expensive interior materials and other junk to justify price gouging this car will fail
Just make it cheap, no one needs fancy materials for an adventure van
Although tbh, in todays world with everything being so close. Long trips to any beach or campsite arent common
So in a way a standard jeep will do or a ford bronco
So idk, this car is a fun buy not a need
i like it , and be approciated if you tell us the range when fully charge ? and how long to charge it ?
If it had an engine, i"ll buy it in a heartbeat.
Man up
Even without it an engine it’s still nice they brought a dead model back for the the people that liked this vehicle and didn’t mess it up like the Mach e and the new charger ev
@@nomo4u886 Yeah those huge environment destroying lithium ion batteries are super manly!!
@SunnyD88 new technology is always manly, snowflake
Hybrids. If this was a hybrid then yes.
This will be a hit! Thanks for the amazing review Joe!!
I never said this but this is the cutest van ever
