At 2:00 a.m. Beijing time on March 10, Volkswagen ID. Buzz made its world debut in Hamburg, Germany.
At the online live broadcast conference, Volkswagen executives said that the reason why they chose Hamburg as the launch location was because in the 1950s, the Volkswagen T series was sent from here to all over the world.
The Volkswagen T series is regarded as a classic by fans around the world because it is the pioneer of van models, which is what we often call the originator of vans and MPV. Although this segment seems to be less tall than cars and SUVs, the Volkswagen T series has conquered fans around the world with its cute and stylish design.
More than half a century later, the Volkswagen T series has changed from a car to a symbol of classics, fashion and fun. You can see its image from time to time in life, and it is a common subject in lego bricks, children's toys, car models and other car-related fields. And people who are strong enough in the economy are also happy to collect it as a collection.
It is from this love, Volkswagen ID. Buzz has attracted global attention in the concept car stage, and the group photo of the concept car and the classic Volkswagen T1 has also begun to circulate on the Internet.
Electric Reborn Volkswagen ID. Buzz, to sum up, has the following points of view:
First, at the software level, it will be equipped with the latest version of ID. software, with the latest driver assistance systems, such as the Travel Assist full-speed domain driver assistance system based on group data and the automatic parking function.
Second, in terms of charging, it can support the fast charging function of 170kW of power, and will also achieve "plug and charge" in the future.
Third, in terms of energy storage, two-way charging technology is adopted, and its battery power can be delivered to the home power supply system.
Fourth, in the interior space, the new car has two versions of the bus and the truck, and the 5-seat version ID. Buzz has plenty of seating space, as well as 1121L of luggage space; ID. Buzz Cargo vans can be loaded with 2 Euro pallets.
Fifth, in terms of sustainability performance, Volkswagen ID. Buzz's full-process production and delivery in Europe is carbon neutral, with synthetic materials instead of leather in the car and recycled materials.
Volkswagen ID. Buzz is derived from the MEB pure electric platform, the new electronic and electrical architecture supports OTA remote upgrades, including a new version of the driver assistance ID. software, but also let this new car have Volkswagen's first-class intelligent driving control functions.
According to official information, regardless of the guest ID. Buzz is still the ID of the goods. Buzz Cargo will be equipped with a Car2X local traffic warning system as standard, which can grasp the danger information in real time through the signals shared by other vehicles and transportation facilities. Also standard is the Front Assist pre-collision safety system, and the ID. Buzz also includes the Lane Assist lane keeping system.
The Travel Assist full-speed domain driver assistance system based on group driving data will appear as an option. The official information is: support for some automatic driving functions within the full speed domain, and the intelligent driver understands it as "full speed domain adaptive cruise".
Since the new car is the first to join the highway automatic lane change assist system and the "memory parking" function that automatically parks according to the pre-stored route, the Volkswagen ID. Buzz can at least reach the level of L2+ level of autonomous driving assistance.
Models launched in the European market will be equipped with a 77 kWh battery pack and an electric motor with a power of 150 kW and a torque of 310 Nm to drive the rear axle. Thanks to the lightweight electric drive system and the design in coordination with the position of the battery pack, the new car has a balanced front and rear weight distribution, which optimizes the handling.
As for the performance data, the official only announced its maximum speed of 145 km/h, the minimum turning diameter of about 11 m, and the wind resistance coefficient of 0.285 (ID. Buzz Cargo is 0.29).
However, the most critical mileage data was not released, which is rare at the launch ceremony of pure electric models.
By charging wall box or public charging pile, Volkswagen ID. Buzz can be charged ac with a power of 11kW. The DC fast charging pile through the European CCS standard charging port has a maximum charging power of up to 170kW, and it can be charged from 5% to 80% in 30 minutes.
It is reported that by using the latest version of the ID.software, Volkswagen ID. Buzz will also provide a "plug and charge" function in the future – automatic authorization of compatible DC fast charging stations by using the CHARGing interface of the ISO 15118 standard and automatically completing the necessary data exchange with the charging station.
In addition, the two-way charging function enables volkswagen ID. Buzz can support home power supply (V2H) with its own electrical energy, and its power transmission and communication is achieved through a dedicated DC two-way charging wall box.
In terms of body space, ID. Buzz and ID. Buzz Cargo has the same wheelbase – 2988 mm , which is almost the same as the current Volkswagen T6.1 model , but its body length is 4712 mm. Therefore, the ID. Buzz is a model that does not look too big, but has a lot of space inside the car, and the boxy body line brings higher space utilization.
ID. Buzz still has 1121L of luggage compartment space after sitting in 5 passengers. With the second row of seats receded, the luggage compartment capacity can be expanded to 2205L.
Yes, it does not currently carry a third row of seats. But the official also announced the future plan, ID. The next phase of Buzz will also be available in long wheelbase versions of six- and seven-seat layouts.
The ID. Buzz Cargo models feature fixed partitions at the rear of the front seats to separate the cockpit from the cargo compartment. The front row is available in two or three-seat layouts, with a cargo compartment capacity of up to 3.9m?, which can be loaded with two horizontal European standard pallets.
With Volkswagen ID. With the release of Buzz, the MEB platform has achieved the landing of the first pure electric MPV model, which will also stimulate the vitality of the global pure electric MPV market to a certain extent.
At present, about 30% of the Pure Electric Vehicles of the Volkswagen Group originate from the MEB platform. According to the plan, by 2025, this proportion is expected to exceed 80%.
According to the information released today, Volkswagen ID. Buzz will be available in some European countries this fall, with pre-sales starting in May. In addition, Volkswagen ID. Buzz will be sold in the U.S. and Canadian markets.
As for the Chinese market, today's press conference has not yet mentioned the relevant plans, but the increasing popularity of the ID. series models in China, the Volkswagen ID. Buzz also has absolutely no reason not to come. In particular, the Chinese market has a huge market space in the two major fields of new energy passenger cars and commercial vehicles, and there is a high consumer demand for large-space pure electric models, which just fit the Volkswagen ID. Buzz's product positioning.
Therefore, the wise driver jun believes that the Volkswagen ID. Buzz should formulate a plan to enter China as soon as possible, and even actively promote the domestic production process.
It should be known that pure electric MPV with dual-use capabilities for passengers and goods is still very rare in the Chinese market. However, the speed at which Chinese brands are pushing new products is very fast, especially the new power enterprises that do not have any transformation burden, and they may even have more highlights in terms of intelligent driving control and mileage.
Time is not waiting for people, Volkswagen ID. Buzz wants to seize the market, and "fast" is definitely a must.
