From Battery Life.
Description:
I took the Volkswagen ID. Buzz Long Wheelbase (RWD) on a real-world 600 km long-distance trip in winter conditions to see how it performs when driven efficiently but realistically.
The car was charged to 100% at home, driven at 130 km/h on the highway, and charged three times using Ionity fast chargers. Outside temperatures were around 0–3°C, with wet roads and heating set to 23°C.
In this video you’ll see:
Real long-distance driving data and average speed
Charging strategy using A Better Routeplanner (ABRP)
Battery preconditioning & winter impact
Real-world consumption at 130 km/h
Charging times from 10–80%
Comfort, noise level & Travel Assist on long trips
Total trip time, efficiency & charging breakdown
This is a no-hype, data-driven road trip test to show what the ID. Buzz LWB is really like on long motorway journeys.
🔹 App Tip: And-CHARGE
With the And-CHARGE app, you can earn free charging credit by rating charging locations (toilets, food, camper access, dog walking, etc.).
In Germany and France, you can even start charging directly in the app.
