The Volkswagen ID. Buzz Microbus Pushed Back to 2023
When it first presented the ID. Buzz microbus concept in 2017, Volkswagen said its plan was to have a production version ready in 2022. That timeline has stayed intact… until today. The automaker has announced that the model’s debut is being pushed back by one year.
Those waiting impatiently for this retro-looking but thoroughly modern all-electric microbus will thus have to wait until 2023.
Confirmation of the postponement came from Volkswagen’s North American CEO, Scott Keogh, who spoke with Automotive News magazine. “I wish it was coming next year,” he explained. “It’s not going to come quite as soon as that; it’s going to be a little bit later than that.”
