The ID.Buzz was originally supposed to reappear in VW’s U.S. lineup this fall, after skipping the 2026 model year.
The return of the Volkswagen ID.Buzz has been delayed even further. As initially reported by Automotive News, the Volkswagen ID.Buzz is now set to return for the 2028 model year, instead of the 2027 model year as originally intended. A Volkswagen representative confirmed the report in a statement to Car and Driver.
Back in December 2025, Volkswagen had announced that the ID.Buzz, the stylish electric van that had only just arrived that year, would be skipping the 2026 model year, but VW was adamant that it would return to the U.S. lineup. In May, VW proclaimed that the ID.Buzz was back with a handful of updates for the 2027 model year, and sales were expected to begin in August. But VW never got around to announcing pricing, and August came and went with no sign of the updated ID.Buzz.

Now, Volkswagen says the ID.Buzz will go on sale in the first half of 2027, meaning it will arrive as a 2028-model-year vehicle. Along with the previously announced changes—which included a switch to the NACS-style charge port and a new Tourer aimed at people who like camping—the 2028 ID.Buzz is also now set to gain reworked software, vehicle-to-load functionality, and digital key integration.
Buzz reaches dealerships sometime before July next year. It will be interesting to see if the updates can bring more meaningful sales for the retro-styled electric van.
