Top Gear Japan TOP GEAR JAPAN [Top Gear Test drive] Volkswagen ID. Buzz: Finally a true electric van is coming!

Cho, Cho, Cho, wait, this paint is ID.Is it a genuine buzz product?Is VW targeting hippies?With peace of mind, Volkswagen is a new type of electric vehicle on March 9th..It's just a camouflage before the buzz (BUZZ) officially announced.However, it will not deviate greatly from the concept.A 2 -tone paint is also available.

Well, what are the results?A 7 -seater full camper bun?There is no confirmation information yet.5 -seater ID.3 seats on the buzz, 3 seats on the front, and hollow behind.Two types of Buzz Kago will be released.In the future, other versions will be released, but will not be released by 2024.And a long wheel base version with more seats and versatility, probably a larger battery and twin motor / 4WD setup, and a long -awaited California campper will appear.If VW intends to call it, but.

So, there's nothing cool yet, only a five -seater MPV?Apparently, that's right.But compared to other family cars, the appearance and the contents are completely different.First of all, I think there is a possibility that you will want an MPV.

The basics are as follows.Platform is ID.3, ID.Although it is the same Meb as 4, it is possible to scale up, so it is a 2,988mm long wheel base as the current carabel.Both sides sliding door.The powertrain that supplies a 207ps/309nm motor from the 77kWh battery and drives the rear axle is borrowed from other IDs.VW has not yet talked about the cruising range, but is expected to be around 355-370km.If you load your luggage, the maximum speed of 145km/h will be about 240km.

In other words, is the same size as the current T6 carabel?yes.Calabel is currently abolished in stages, so it's just right.The Transporter and the California version will continue, but VW is currently introducing a new T7 Martivan based on a smaller MQB base to those who want a people who want an internal combustion engine.It sounds like a strange decision.

Let's continue.The wheelbase that matches the carabel, but the overhang is small, so the buzz is about 200mm shorter overall.The vehicle height was 30mm lower, but the width of the car was about 60mm wider.The total length is 4,712mm, the height is 1,937mm, and the width is 1,985mm.

Speaking of SUV standards, the room is massive.The SUV trunk is around 600 liters, which can be 1,121 liters.It's a large and square space, but it's clear that it's not as big as a carabel.Because the body frame is thick, it has excellent twisting rigidity and sophistication, but the interior space is narrow.Also, the three seats in the rear seats are rather normal, 60:40 split bench.It provides a mattress to make it possible to use slides and flat folds, and VW can be used as a pseudo camper.

Why are there any photos of the cabin?It's for Embago.I was almost able to see it, but the dash was covered with a cover.The impression is that people sitting in the rear seats will be satisfied, but after all, the front seat is an important point.The front scenery was very attractive.The upright windshield can be seen far far away, surrounded by tall triangular windows, as if looking into soccer goals.I think it feels like it's surrounded by glass.

The driving position is more relaxed than the carabel, the steering is a little further ahead, and you can sit down at a low position on the pedal.There are armrests on both sides, proving that the carabel is a very comfortable car to run.Looking under the dashboard, there is a very cool dashboard with high quality finish and storage.There is a removable multi -function chest between the front seats, but the chair itself does not rotate yet.This is also expected to further improve functionality.

At the moment, ID Buzz is the point of view of people who have bought or remodeled because the T5/T6 van is convenient and flexible.For now, it seems to be targeting more orthodox family use.After securing the sales volume of the mainstream, it will be specialized in specialized fields.

About two more.You will not be able to put a bicycle on the tail gate mount truck.The super -powerful pillar that could put 50kg luggage has disappeared.The buzz has an electric tail gate, but the motor is not as strong as pushing the rack.Therefore, the motorcycle will be moved on the tobarack.I hope that VW will prepare the solution.And the tobell can only drive 1,100 kg, whereas the old carabel can lead 2,500 kg.

Even so, I own T6.This is important for me.But nobody would buy carabel with powertrain quality.Regardless of diesel reliability and economy, it's smooth and quiet.I am surprised by the electric power.Unlike sports type EVs, this is a guy who enters a basket written as "a car that makes an electric powertrain meaning meaning".Easy and smooth, quiet, easy to handle, good response, and torque.

Yes, 207ps is enough.It's a speed that surpasses diesel, suitable for tall upright family cars.It's so fast that you don't want any more, and the acceleration is so slow that you don't have any problems before the chassis.It is doubtful whether the speed limit is 145km/h enough.Especially as a car designed, manufactured, and sold in Germany.

How about handling?It is much better than Calabell.As with other vans, the front wheels, like other vans, have maximized the loading space (tended to be tendency to wear tires).Battery skateboards use weight distribution equally to reduce the center of gravity.As a result, the buzz has realized a more clean, flat and more control of cornering.The rear wheel drive is also like a VW's first van, and there is a feeling of being pushed rather than being pulled.The evidence is that the ride is good and you can enjoy quiet cruising.11.The minimum turning radius of 0m is surprisingly tight for this size machine.

That's exactly what you were looking for.What are the problems to report?ID.3 or ID.It adopts the same infotainment as 4, but this car was equipped with beta software that will be installed in mass -produced cars landing in September.The reaction was good, and the menu layout was better.However, since the heater control slider has no lighting, the temperature adjustment at night is literally performed in the dark.

What are the useful functions?Being able to charge at home.It's natural.Alternatively, it can be used for charging at home.The buzz is equipped with a two -way charging function and can be functioned as a power storage device.Charge with cheap electricity, return to your house at the peak and discharge it.

Software updates such as infotainment, charging method, and driver astance are planned to be performed wirelessly.However, it is necessary to incorporate the atmosphere of a surf van that hit the original VW van.This must be a fun trip.

How much cost will it cost?VW says it costs almost the same cost as Calabel.In other words, the lowest price will exceed 50,000 pounds (7.85 million yen).Therefore, it may be better to look at the budget of about 60,000 pounds (9.4 million yen) for the specifications of fulfilling equipment.But now most of the SUVs are that much of the market.Aside from Audi E-Tron and Mercedes-Benz EQC.And historically, VW vans are much more resistant to depreciation.

Isn't this a bright and clever solution for the future more than financially?As I said before, can the ID buzz be a signal of the beginning of the SUV's end?Can a car revolution be possible like the first Renault Espass?He is not pretentious, not aggressive, and provides the largest luxury space required for family cars.In the era of electric vehicles, you need a new form and new style.

= Overseas reaction = "I think this is when I was a child. I think it's for children. It's an adult now. But the track record of making MPV for the family of three children is Gransenic. There were three individual seats with the same width in Grampicaso. There was also a Prius + that felt close to it. The middle seat is a little narrow, so the seat that no one wants to get on is the most comfortable. I wish I had a child or thought about asking my family, but that car was really for taxi and I didn't intend to use the fifth seat. Like the car and this almost MPV. The three -equal sheet is to use the luggage space effectively (because it slides and folded individually) to secure child seats safely, and to value the child anyway. It was perfect for it. It wouldn't make sense if it didn't have it. It's the same as the idea that you should make a few more euros even if you give out asthma to the child and give asthma to the child. "" It's not a SUV. " But it's good. It's a pity that it was not released with a cool function to make it more interesting. Other than that, it has a rather plain impression. It has an interior dash that is very similar to other IDs. I think this is not very good. I am ID.I've been sitting in 3, but compared to the 7th generation golf six years ago, the texture was the worst. "Judge yourself. But if the interface is ID.Same as 3/4 (I'm riding 4), if the cruising range is only 370 km, I'm really worried about VW. "" It's full of hard plastic. But ... I'm sorry "" I can do my best and I can actually buy it. So, a person who is informed that Touleg R order will be manufactured in the 44th week (October)-The order was ordered last September. Because it is put out! The excuse of "lack of semiconductor" is not passed ... "" If you use it for 5 years, you sell it for recycling. My expensive Mac is 80 % battery as of 5 years ago. It is indicated that it is working only in efficiency, but it actually works only in the current charging time compared to the time of new. All other battery -type devices that have been used regularly -devices that have become useless due to battery failures and software problems are full of large boxes. Dyson, Samsung, Apple, LG ... all. The product is like the product. And the neighbors changed Tesla for the fifth year to Nissan. Tesla is wonderful, but it can only be used for city riding and no one can repair it, and use it on her private road. It is because my battery can no longer be used while it is not exposed. Most of the recent VW products will be sold in three years and will be recycled when returned. In this article. Do you notice that you haven't mentioned any battery at all, but all the current EVs are loaded on racks using the same old laptop battery as Tesla used, and surveillance software continuously operates. "However," but when I read it elsewhere, it seems that the battery of the car does not deteriorate at the speed you expect. In most cases, the performance drops even after 10 years. It is thought that it is not. Certainly, it is unlikely that it is not falling to the level you are thinking in five years. The life of the battery is determined by multiple factors. Charging is also a major factor. 。 If you keep laptops and mobile phones connected for a long time or are constantly charging quickly, the battery deteriorates faster. Manufacturers are aware of that and offer charging time up to 80 %. That's right. If you charge this last 20 % quickly, the battery life will be shorter. Self The driving car management system is programmed to delay the amount of electricity in order to maintain the life of the battery when it comes to the ratio. So the deterioration is expected, but such a pessimism is not constructive in the debate. Also, what kind of world will the end of the lease end to the recycling for three years? It will be sent to the auction house for the used car market. If many companies, like my company, do not hold a lease car for a long time for pandemic, that is usually the case. Due to the lack of chips, it can be a car that is up to six years ago. "" Electric multi -van is a cooler name. It's over. " And the prototype is completely different. The cruising range is about half of the car made to camp in a remote place, and as others have said, the infotence system is. It's as bad as an ID car. VW, please try it again. "
