The ID Buzz is powered by the same 201bhp electric motor found in VW's other ID models. In our tests, it managed 0-60mph in a respectable 9.5 seconds. Expect between 180 and 230 miles from a full battery charge, depending on the weather.

150kW

The VW Group famously spends more money on research and development than any rival – and as a result, perhaps it should be no surprise that our testers rate its cars so consistently highly.

The fact that many of those cars use the same underpinnings also helps, because it means that if they get it right once, they have the foundations to keep on getting it right.

However, the Volkswagen brand faces plenty of tough competition, often from within, because the rapidly rising Seat and Skoda brands that are also part of the group have access to the same technology.

Volkswagen ID Buzz

The VW ID Buzz is charming, pleasant to drive and hugely practical – plus it's cheaper than you might think if you're buying on finance. This What Car? Award-winning electric car is a fantastic alternative to premium electric SUVs, such as the BMW iX3, Jaguar I-Pace and Tesla Model Y. We recommend stepping up to top-of-the-range Style trim if you can.

<h2>What we're looking for:</h2><ul><li>Sufficient range between charges to fit in with most people’s lifestyles – and in the real world, not on some far-fetched official test </li> <li>Quick charging times and compatibility with the most ubiquitous types of public charging points </li> <li>Priced to be within the grasp of more than just the privileged few </li> <li>As with any car, ride comfort, practicality and ownership costs can’t be ignored</li></ul>

We define an electric car as one that runs purely on battery power and has no tailpipe to puff out nasty chemicals.

The best of the breed offer sufficient range between charges to fit in with most people’s lifestyles – and in the real world, not on some far-fetched official test cycle.
