Recently, Volkswagen for the first time will clearly launch a base based on ID.BUZZ, and then launch a camping version of volkswagen ID.BUZZ - Volkswagen ID.California. Mainly because the current demand for camping is gradually strong, and the second-hand residual value of campervans is also rising steadily, which also means that the demand for campervans is at its peak.
In fact, since last summer, Volkswagen has been building a new assembly line in Hanover, and this production line is where Volkswagen ID.BUZZ is produced, so the big ID.California will be born here, and will meet with you in the next 5 years, mainly for the US market.

Until recently, Volkswagen has only made it clear that it wants to launch an ID.California campervan, but there is not much specific information about it.

However, we may wish to make a bold guess based on the Volkswagen California 6.1 Beach shape, and it is expected that the front face of the new car will adopt the ID.family-style closed front face design, and the more rounded IQ.light headlights and low-drag style wheel design will be used, and the rest of the functional things will be retained.
According to foreign media, the new car will be based on the same platform as the ID.BUZZ, but the wheelbase will be improved After all, considering that it is a camping model, the space inside the carriage is very important.
In terms of power, it is expected to be equipped with 82.0kWh or a higher energy density 111.0kWh battery pack, and the maximum endurance is expected to reach 342 miles (550 kilometers), ensuring that it has a long enough endurance to support it to run farther. At the same time, it will also be equipped with a rear drive motor and a rear and rear dual drive motors.
In fact, the reason volkswagen ID.California is modeled on ID.BUZZ is that it meets the image of a campervan for the day, and the boxy van shape is born with a good loading capacity.
Secondly, it is the advantage of pure electric platform - full flat. As a campervan that needs to travel a long distance, it is very important to have a good space layout, and the pure electric platform can be fully flat due to the excellent physical architecture of the natural physical structure, and because of this, the layout of the interior of the carriage has more space to play, the layout of the layout will be higher, and the utilization rate of space will be higher.
Although the imaginary Volkswagen ID.California is quite beautiful, considering that it is a pure electric model, there are still more obvious limitations - battery life, charging. You know, camping is not just limited to the surrounding suburbs, then for those who like to go to farther places to camp, the battery life and electric supply problems become their stumbling blocks. Of course, this does not mean that it has no market, but it will be relatively narrow.
