Testing of the ID. Buzz AD is happening in collaboration with Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles at the Argo AI development centre in Neufahrn, near Munich. Argo also has a nine hectare closed-course near Munich airport to test a variety of traffic situations unique to European driving conditions, in addition to their test track in the United States. With its plans for the development of autonomous driving services, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles shows in the IAA environment how inner-city traffic can be relieved by ridepooling. The brand has set up its own business unit for the development of autonomous driving and has acquired a stake in Argo AI.

The cabin of the Volkswagen ID. Buzz is expected to look minimalist and will have fewer buttons.

Now in terms of looks, we see a mix the typical Volkswagen ID. family design and inspiration taken from the iconic Volkswagen Transporter. The sleek wraparound headlights, sharp alloy wheels and flared wheel arches are very much reminiscent to the ID family while the overall silhouette will remind you of the Volkswagen Transporter. While the official specifications are yet to be announced, when VW showcased the concept van, the company had said that the electric vehicle can offer up to 364 bhp, thanks to a 111 kWh battery and a range of 432 kilometres. The company had said that it will also get an all-wheel-drive (AWD) system, which means there will be two electric motors on offer, one for each axle.
