Volkswagen ID.Buzz electric van teased ahead of March 9 debut
Volkswagen has teased the final production-spec version of the ID.Buzz concept. This model made its first appearance back in 2017. The company has now announced the debut date of the electric van which is set to break cover on March 9, 2022.
The official nameplate of the VW Bus is yet to be announced, but expect it to be rolled out as a spiritual successor to the iconic Microbus.

VW has posted a teaser image of the model covered in camouflage pattern and the teaser closely follows the scheme as previously witnessed on the ID.5 and related ID.4 back when these models were teased.
Needless to say, the final production-spec model looks radically different than the concept displayed earlier, but it closely aligns with details seen in spy shots of test vehicles seen a few months back. The final production-spec model will underpin the same MEB platform as ID.4 and ID.5.
