While we still don’t have every little detail, we do know how what options you’ll be able to pick for your ID. Buzz.

We’ve been waiting for years at this point for Volkswagen to finally, finally introduce the U.S.-specific version of its funky electric take on its classic Microbus. On Monday, though, the automaker revealed details on the trim walk, laying out three different configurations in which you’ll be able to order the 2025 ID. Buzz when it lands at dealers nationwide this July.

There aren’t any curve balls, of course, but this announcement does confirm that the company will, in fact, broadly follow the ID.4 as far as the rollout is concerned. The 2025 Volkswagen ID.Buzz will launch with Pro S and Pro S Plus versions, plus a launch-only 1st Edition model. A single-motor, rear-wheel drive configuration will be the default setup, though you will be able to spec it with a dual-motor, all-wheel drive system.

All ID.Buzz models utilize a 91-kWh battery system (a decent size-up over the ID.4’s 82-kWh unit), and get 20-inch wheels, 30-color ambient lighting, and a 12.9-inch infotainment system as standard equipment. Buyers can opt for captain’s chairs, an electrochromatic glass roof, a head-up display, a flexboard cargo system, 360-degree camera and Harman/Kardon audio system as options.

By default, Pro S models (which are RWD only) get 282 horsepower, while 4Motion AWD variants get a boost to 335 horsepower. Pro S Plus and 1st Edition models will offer both RWD and AWD options. Range and pricing details are still a couple pieces we’re missing to complete this picture — VW says those details will be available in the coming weeks, closer to launch.

The 2025 Volkswagen ID.Buzz 1st Edition gets some special touches over the standard models, as you’d expect. Unique 20-inch wheels, roof rail cross bars, a coastal-themed interior and “heritage-inspired” floor mats and most of the options mentioned above come as standard kit on the 1st Edition.
