On the first day of construction, let's talk about Volkswagen's retro future "sharp goods" ID.BUZZ
At the same time, the new forces of car manufacturing are competing for forward-looking design, and the old manufacturers are constantly singing the integration of classic and forward-looking design, after all, from the market point of view, the old manufacturers are the easiest to come up with to tell the "story", especially the historical blockbusters, under the collision of classics and forward-looking, extraordinary sparks are more likely to be generated.
Volkswagen ID.BUZZ is undoubtedly the most special one in the ID family. People who are familiar with classic cars can easily associate Volkswagen ID.BUZZ and the design commonality of The Volkswagen classic car Type 2 in the 1950s, so from the debut of the ID.BUZZ Concept concept car, Volkswagen has specially arranged ID.BUZZ Concept car to remain in the same frame as the main visual of Type 2, and always attract popularity for the official debut of the ID.BUZZ.
Even in a rainbow elemental livery, ID.BUZZ is different from the evolution of the T7 Multivan in terms of design. The meb platform's extremely short front and rear overhang design, the head "V" line that is in line with Type 2, and runs through the body, coupled with the ID. family's unique lighting modeling and hollow bumper design, the retro tone is definitely a popular element in the process of modern interpretation.
Relative to the concept car is close to 5 meters in length, the size of the mass production version will be reduced, and the overall three-dimensional ratio is closer to the level of Tuan L. However, even if the compact MPV model is positioned, the ID.BUZZ will have a more stretched interior space performance and ride view than the ID.6.
The seating arrangement is simplified to a 2+3 layout, so from the exposure of internal spy photos, the utilization rate of the ID.BUZZ tail compartment has become the current compact MPV, or the first of the SUVs. Coupled with the MPV's unique double-sided electric sliding door, ID.BUZZ the convenience of use, and the space changed in the later stage has long aroused the appetite of many potential passengers.
According to Volkswagen's previous plan, ID.BUZZ is expected to become the first model to support L3 level assisted driving on the MEB platform. However, due to the significantly earlier release schedule for the production version, it will be difficult for ID.BUZZ to achieve this goal. It is not difficult to see from the spy photos of the center console that ID.BUZZ instruments, steering wheel and central control layout continue to use the existing ID family scheme. Therefore, L3 level and the future higher L4 level assisted driving, Volkswagen is still betting on the PPE platform that will appear in 2023, which is the real killer of Volkswagen competing in the battlefield of luxury electric vehicles.
There are drawbacks and benefits to everything, and following the ID.BUZZ of the existing E3 appliance architecture, the pricing strategy will be more approachable. The power level will share the two power layouts of single motor rear drive and dual motor four wheel drive, and the maximum power output will be divided into: 201 horsepower, 295 horsepower and 369 horsepower, so on the sport attribute alone, do not despise this MPV.
More importantly, in terms of battery life, the MPV flat floor design will be easier to stack the battery pack than suvs. ID.BUZZ overseas versions are available in 83 kWh and 111 kWh specifications, and the WLTP standard range of more than 580 km is not difficult in the eyes of ID.BUZZ.
In the first three quarters of 2021, Volkswagen delivered a total of 69,600 new energy models in China, an increase of 103.5% year-on-year, and this wave of beautiful "output" is said to be the top performance of established manufacturers, but there is still a large gap between the head enterprises of independent or new car-making forces. ID.BUZZ overseas appearance can enhance the ID brand effect, but the impression is still a deep foundation in styling. Technically, Volkswagen is far from Tesla, so the introduction of domestic production, how much brand effect extension can be brought, is still unknown.
