There is no such car, the price although not so expensive, but because of the time (discontinued!) ), introduce problems that make you feel uncomfortable, but you can't enjoy it, such as the Honda S660 for the Japanese market, the Volkswagen Beetle that has long been discontinued, and the Santana Travel Edition. These are "feelings".
Some people, the feelings are "vans", such as Toyota Previa, Volkswagen T1. However, a few days ago, Volkswagen officially resurrected the T1, but the difference is that this retro van, but pure electric, with the most retro shape, doing the most novel thing, that is, this Volkswagen ID.Buzz.
ID.Buzz as in 70 years, the standard box-type body design was adopted, the overall line was square, the large area was flat and straight, and there was even no rounded surface, so don't think about what amazing light and shadow effects there will be. But it doesn't matter! What we want is this retro style.
The new car body size is 4712 * 1985 * 1937 * 2988mm, the width is comparable to some medium and large SUVs, and the 2988mm wheelbase is beyond the MPV of Honda Odyssey.
It also adopts a huge LOGO, two-color body as always, there is no grille of it, with a bit of "single eyelid" LED headlights, to be honest, it is really cute, men and women kill it!
Oh, it uses through-the-line daytime running lights like other Volkswagen ID models, and the LOGO can still shine, which is very "stuffy".
On the side, the overall square has to be "serious", fortunately, the roof is slightly down, and the two-color body and suspension roof design alleviate this sense of seriousness, but it looks lively.
The A-pillar is designed with a triangular window to enhance the openness of the field of view, and the D-pillar has a very unique decoration, which attracts the attention if it can be illuminated. And the front and rear wheels are 21 inches, not to mention it is a van, have you ever seen a van with 21 inches of wheels?
The tail shape also continues the simple style design, if you have to describe the design, it is "it uses a slender through taillight", in addition to no other design elements, if the line above the license plate is also ...
The above show is a passenger car version, for those commercial users, Volkswagen also very intimately provides a blind window version. But for the Chinese market? Please, don't introduce this into ruining this "retro little fresh" style.
Entering the carriage, the first is this "take-ism" center console, small size full LCD dashboard, touch button steering wheel, pocket gear, suspension central control are the same as other ID models, which is also the consistent "Volkswagen Matryoshka style", but from the SUV's T-shaped layout to the "one" layout, so that the driver is easier to get off from the co-driver.
Looking at this black interior is very "dull"? Or is it completely unworthy of a stuffy look? Sorry, the professor misplaced the picture. The black interior should be a commercial version.
For the passenger version, it must be as "commotion" as the body, the same color as the body, and for the time being, there are already yellow and orange.
In addition, its 12-inch central control screen has also been upgraded to the 3.0 system, and the experience will be smoother, getting rid of the shortcomings of the existing version of Caton.
And ID.Buzz with this 2988mm wheelbase, will the riding space be comfortable? At first, the professor would also look forward to it, but from the official map, its back space is also spacious enough, not to mention the legs of The Erlang, you can put a small bench to lie on your feet.
But this is the same seat as the general public SUV, giving people a feeling that it is not comfortable ~ can only say that the home style, perhaps we have to "modify" after buying.
The picture above is a schematic diagram of the 5-seat version, and it has 7-seat version, as for the space? This may be a regression of Volkswagen ID.Buzz to T1. After all, we are looking forward to a group of friends, sitting on this volkswagen "van" and talking freely.
But this is also no way, because compared to T1, ID.Buzz is much smaller, more versatile, and suitable for home users, especially Chinese consumers.
In addition, if you look closely, you will also find that there are many Easter eggs in this ID.Buzz, and the ID will be written on the seat to indicate your identity in the new era.
The screw cover of the decorative parts is actually still with a smiley face, and the door panel is a comic image with a ID.Buzz, which makes people smile, and the public's "elm head" finally understands romantic feelings?
(Pictured above is the ID.4 engine compartment)
The new car is based on the MEB platform, and like the T1, it adopts the rear-drive layout, which is "retro" again. The maximum power of the electric motor has reached 204 horsepower, the power battery capacity has reached 77 kWh, and the official has not yet announced its specific endurance, and it is expected to achieve more than 450km of endurance.
As for charging, it can be charged from 5% to 80% in half an hour through a 170-kilowatt fast charging pile. And also provides a two-way power supply function, the valley power period for car charging, in the peak and valley period reverse power supply for the home, although the function for the domestic - no use. But it also shows that it has an external discharge function, which is also a camping artifact!
Volkswagen ID.Buzz will be put into production in the first half of 2022, listed in some European countries before the autumn, and will be introduced to the United States and Canada in the future. It's still unknown, let alone the price. However, in the professor's view, after the introduction of this new car into the country, the price will inevitably be more than 300,000.
Honda Odyssey
Guidance price: 23.58-35.48 million
Toyota Syna
Guide price: 30.98-40.58 million
Its direct opponents will be Honda Odyssey, Toyota Syna and other fuel MPV, compared with them ID.Buzz pure electric identity will be quite subtle, in terms of cost of use, space, tranquility, power will have the advantage of dimensionality reduction.
And now there is no such pure electric passenger MPV at home and abroad, it can be said that it has created a new market segment, not the common kind of "serious business style" or "warm home style", but "retro lively wind", more attractive to family consumers, especially those young consumers, which has a "young people's first MPV" feeling.
The public ID.Buzz provides a solution to the "T1 emotional thoughts and emotions", which inherits the retro styling design of the previous T1, which seems quite fresh today, suitable for most family users and young people. It brings more of a new concept of using a car, which can be very practical or beautiful. ID.Buzz, it can be called the New Era Volkswagen T1.
