The ID.Buzz will be offered as MPV, van and camper van. Expect the MPV model to feature up to eight seats, while the California-style camper will provide sleeping space for four adults.

The exterior design is inspired by Volkswagen's classic camper van, with the short overhangs and boxy body giving a notable nod to the famous Type 2. The ID.Buzz will follow a similar rear-wheel drive set-up, too, but take its power from 111kWh lithium-ion battery pack located under the vehicle floor.

At launch, the ID.Buzz will be rear-wheel drive and powered by a single electric motor that will develop up to 200PS. A twin-motor 4Motion version of the ID.Buzz is also in development and Volkswagen will use its comprehensive van knowledge to provide a car-like driving experience - similar to the excellent Multivan. 

Expect the interior to feature the latest LED and touchscreen tech. Volkswagen is also promising to set new benchmarks for seat quality and refinement.
