Original source: SlashGear

In Brief

Volkswagen has confirmed the return of the electric ID. Buzz microbus to the US market for the 2027 model year, featuring a new Tourer camper trim. It includes a fold-out bed, window shades, ventilation panels, and an Overnight Mode.

Volkswagen has officially announced the return of the electric ID. Buzz microbus to the US market for the 2027 model year after a one-year hiatus. The key addition is the Tourer trim (including the all-wheel-drive Tourer 4Motion), which transforms the van into a factory camper.

Tourer equipment

  • Fold-out mattress for two with pillows and bedding
  • Window shades and ventilation panels (previously available in the European Good Night package)
  • Overnight Mode for running climate control and electrical appliances from the battery
  • Foldable outdoor table and chairs
  • Electrochromic roof (according to one source)

Updates for all versions

All 2027 ID. Buzz models receive new ID.S 6 software with improved navigation and third-party app support (YouTube, Spotify), an NACS-CCS adapter for charging at Tesla Superchargers, and a one-pedal driving mode. All-wheel-drive availability is expanded (Pro S 4Motion and Tourer 4Motion). Range remains unchanged at approximately 231 miles (372 km).

Pricing and sales

2027 pricing has not been announced. For reference, the 2025 model ranged from $61,545 to $72,540. One source estimates the Tourer trim at around $80,000. US sales are expected to begin between August and late 2027. In 2025, only 7,300 ID. Buzz units were sold in North America, after which sales were paused.
