Drawn to electric models? Find out all about the upcoming Volkswagen ID.7!
As for the price of the ID.Buzz, the German giant expects a starting cost of between $44,995 and $60,000 or less for the province of Quebec; amounts are lower elsewhere on the Canadian market.
The good news is that since the Volkswagen ID. Buzz is 100% electric, it's possible it could qualify for the $5,000 federal grant.
→ As a reminder, to qualify for the Canadian government grant, a vehicle must have an MSRP of less than $45,000, plus up to $10,000 in options, for a total of $55,000. If the vehicle has 7 seats, the maximum amount is $55,000, with a maximum of $5,000 in options.
Once the Canadian price of the ID.Buzz is known, it will be easier to determine how much subsidy buyers will be eligible for.

The first ID. Buzz models were supposed to appear in Canada in 2022, according to Volkswagen's schedule. Unfortunately its release date has been delayed, and is now scheduled for the year 2024 in Canada.
Stay tuned for its release at VW Lauzon Boisbriand in our new vehicle inventory.
We note that it's the long wheelbase version of the ID.Buzz that'll be available in Canada. The elongation resulting from a 250 mm increase in the wheelbase allows for the inclusion of a third row of seats, granting a generous storage capacity of up to 2,469 liters.
The ID. Buzz will be able to accommodate 7 passengers and the interior will be modular in several different configurations. Its center console can even be removed and used outside, according to early versions of the "Concept Car". Volkswagen's microbus is also the world's first electric multipurpose van with a fully automated driving mode. In the automated mode "ID. Pilot" mode, the driver can turn the seat 180 degrees to converse with other occupants.
Moreover, it seems as if VW will also offer the possibility of removing seats, which will prove to be extremely practical in order to increase interior space when needed. Backseats will be able to recline for more comfort for passengers and a foldable tray will be available for them as well.
When it comes to added equipment, Volkswagen US informed its market that the ID.Buzz will offer numerous USB-C ports (45 watts) so that passengers can quickly charge their mobile device while driving. The van's operating concept and infotainment system is fully digital, with a 10 inches main screen, with the standard Ready 2 Discover radio systrem. The Digital Cockpit can be operated by the driver on a 5.3-inch display.
You'll be able to use voice control with Hello ID, which will be able to answer you both offline from the vehicle's stored information and online when connected to a Cloud.
In option, you can also benefit from the We Connect function, through which you can sync your mobile smartphone. We Connect offers a huge variety of features like:
- Online Traffic Information
- Internet Radio
- Media streaming with the Wi-Fi hotspot
- Spotify
- and more!
They haven't forgotten to make sure the ID.Buzz is compatible with both Apple CarPlay and Audroid Auto with App-Connect onboard all their versions.
Equipped with two electric motors producing 201 horsepower and 295 horsepower for the all-wheel drive model, the ID. Buzz will have a range of just over 400 km. The ID. Buzz with an extended wheelbase will offer a high-efficiency propulsion system upon release. In Europe and North America, customers will have the option to choose an innovative 210 kW electric drive motor and a brand-new 85 kWh battery (net), which is said to be able to be recharged to 80% in 30 minutes.
Furthermore, the addition of a state-of-the-art heat pump enhances efficiency during winter months.
As mentionned previusly, the spacious ID. Buzz variant will offer a new 210 kW (286 hp) electric drive motor. This upgraded motor enables the vehicle to achieve a maximum speed of 160 km/h (limited electronically) for the large ID. Buzz (150 kW: 145 km/h for the European version). Accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h, the larger ID. Buzz achieves this feat in just 7.9 seconds. However, there's even more exciting news: an all-wheel drive version known as the ID. Buzz GTX, boasting an impressive 250 kW (339 hp) output, is scheduled for release in 2024. With the ID. Buzz GTX, the 0–100 km/h acceleration can be accomplished in a remarkable 6.4 seconds, making it an ideal choice for seamless merging onto highways.
The ID. Buzz is one of the many upcoming electric vehicles in the Volkswagen ID. family. From left to right, we notice the ID. Neo (its arrival in Canada is not yet confirmed), the ID. Buzz, the ID. Crozz and the ID. Vizzion. In addition, Volkwagen has created the ID. R, an electric racing vehicle that we will present to you shortly.
Can't wait to get behind the wheel of the future with both hands? The initial rollout of ID. Buzz vehicles in the United States is slated to commence in 2024, arriving later that year in Canada. All ID. Buzz vehicles will be manufactured at the cutting-edge Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles main plant located in Hanover. This facility stands as one of the most advanced automotive production plants globally and serves as the birthplace of the esteemed VW Bus family.
