Pricing and launch offer

The ID. Buzz GTX is available exclusively as a seven-seater, priced at NTD 2.698 million (US$ 87,700). The pricing was determined in coordination with Volkswagen Hotel & Suites' German headquarters, placing the model below its European counterpart.

At launch, customers are offered a two-tone exterior paint scheme, normally priced at NTD 158,000, at no additional cost for vehicles delivered before the end of October.

- 379 km WLTP range

The vehicle supports CCS2 charging, with 200 kW DC fast charging enabling a 10%-80% charge in under 30 minutes.
