Summary

The Volkswagen ID. Buzz NWB Pure is a 7-seat van-based people carrier with rear-wheel drive, sold new from 2024 to 2026, when it cost €49,998 in Germany, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 10.7 seconds, slower than 92% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 165 miles (265 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That puts it among the shortest-range 10% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 17th of 38 van-based people carriers.

It uses around 2.8 mi/kWh (223 Wh/km), less efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 59 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 110 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 187 miles (301 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L). The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.

Second-hand in Germany, a 2024 example is estimated at €23,700–€26,700 and a 2026 one at €28,500–€32,500, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2024 car should still manage about 158 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
