Volkswagen ID. Buzz Cargo gets a stretched version starting at about $60,000

Volkswagen launched the new ID. Buzz Cargo with a longer wheelbase, offering more space and updated software. Prices start at about $60,000, but a cheaper version will go on sale soon.

After Kia introduced the PV7, Volkswagen wasted no time adding a longer version of its electric work van.

While the standard ID. Buzz is for personal, everyday use, the Cargo version is designed for business. It’s similar to the Kia PV5 Passenger and Cargo models.

Volkswagen launched the new ID. Buzz with long wheelbase (LWB) on Wednesday, adding a bigger, more spacious option to the lineup.

The LWB version measures 4,962 mm in length with a 3,239 mm wheelbase that extends the interior length by 250 from the standard ID. Buzz. The extended length adds an additional 0.5 m3 of storage space in the load compartment.

To make loading and unloading easier, the longer ID. Buzz has a wood floor and a second sliding door as standard.

The door is also 19 cm wider, so a Euro pallet can now fit through the side. Buyers can opt for the optional rear-wing doors.

Depending on the configuration, the maximum payload is up to 700 kg for the rear-wheel drive (RWD) model and 606 kg for the all-wheel drive (AWD) version. Like the standard model, the ID. Buzz LWB is available as a two- or three-seater.

The longer ID. Buzz uses an 86 kWh battery, which is expected to provide a WLTP range of nearly 300 miles. The standard version has a 79 kWh battery, providing up to 277 miles of range.
