In 2023, the electric van became the best-selling commercial vehicle under 3.5 tonnes for the first time, with the Volkswagen ID. Buzz for Cargo. A total of 3,407 vehicles were registered in 2023, and so far around 6,700 of the popular van model have been registered in Norway.

But for those who rely on all-wheel drive, the wait has been endlessly long.

Sales of the upgraded ID have recently begun. The Buzz Cargo comes with a larger battery and a more powerful motor, increasing power from 204 to 286 horsepower for the two-wheel-drive model.

Today finally opens for pre-orders for the Buzz Cargo 4MOTION, which means the vehicle will now also be available with four-wheel drive.

Better Grip: The ID. Buzz without all-wheel drive was a challenge on smooth roads, especially when towing a heavy trailer. Now with all-wheel drive, the ID. Buzz tows heavy and safe all year round.

More power and increased trailer weight

ID price. The Buzz Cargo 4MOTION with all-wheel drive starts at NOK 588,720 ex. VAT, delivered in Oslo. That's only about NOK 20,000 more than the two-wheel drive version.

Those who need to tow hard will benefit from the increased torque. Here, the capacity is significantly increased. The rear-wheel drive trailer weighs just one ton, and the four-wheel drive can tow up to 1.8 tons.
