Volkswagen Reveals New Model Of It’s ‘VW Bus’

The van is redesigned to recall the Volkswagen T1, or 'Transporter', that was originally introduced in 1949.

Volkswagen is rebooting its groovy 60s-era VW Bus with improvements in speed and more room.

The company unveiled the ID Buzz. It is nearly a foot longer than the two-row model and is around 10 inches shorter than a Chrysler Pacifica Minivan, but can still seat up to seven passengers.

The van is redesigned to recall the Volkswagen T1, or ‘Transporter’, that was originally introduced in 1949 and is better known has the ‘Micro-Bus’ or ‘VW Bus’.

The ID Buzz will be rear-wheel drive, with power coming from a motor mounted in the back, this time with an electric motor instead of a gasoline engine.

The new model is expected to reach speeds of 90 miles per hour.

The vehicle will hit the market in 2024.
