ID. Buzz 7-seat makes UK debut at CarFest 2024
The highly-anticipated ID. Buzz 7-seat made its UK debut at CarFest 2024, which took place from 23rd until 25th August. Visitors to the UK’s biggest family fundraising festival were the first to see the longer wheelbase variant in the country, as well as being able to test drive the ID. Buzz 5-seat at the on-site Test Drive Centre.
During the three-day event at Laverstoke Park Farm, Hampshire, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles provided CarFest visitors an exclusive, enhanced Try Before You Buy offer for the ID. Buzz 5-seat.
The Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles stand, the Buzz Stop, was designed by globally-renowned design duo, Craig Redman & Karl Maier. Situated at stand number CF2, the new Buzz Stop captured everyone’s attention with its bold design, bright colours and use of different media, inspired by design features from the ID. Buzz.
While the new ID. Buzz 7-seat took centre stage at the CarFest stand, there was also entertainment for everyone, including a live DJ, seating areas, and a children’s colouring wall.
The ID. Buzz 7-seat delivers family-friendly flexibility, with five-, six- and seven-seat configurations available, with all rear seats benefiting from three-point safety belts and ISOFIX mountings for child seats. The second row of seats slide and recline for extra comfort, while on seven-seat models the third row can be removed completely. The increase in wheelbase allows for the installation of an 86kWh battery, providing a WLTP range of up to 293 miles1. View more technical specifications for the ID. Buzz here

The 7-seat model provides 306 litres of space behind the third row of seats, increasing to 1,340 litres of luggage space behind row two and 2,469 litres when the second and third row seats are folded, making it perfect for carrying bikes, surfboards and kit for all the family. In addition, the Multiflex board adjustable boot floor creates a second loading level and, when the rear seats are folded down, a completely flat load area.
As with the rest of the ID. Buzz line-up, the 7-seat features a number of technology and specification upgrades. For instance, the latest 'Discover Pro' infotainment system now benefits from a larger 12.9-inch screen with enhanced graphics and a faster, more powerful processor.
