According to a recent press release from Volkswagen regarding its 2027 model year lineup, the ID. Buzz is back for MY27 with a new Tourer model that is geared for overnight camping trips. All 2027 ID. Buzz trims benefit from Volkswagen’s latest infotainment software and offer a new, nostalgic Candy White over Cherry Red color scheme.
After a hiatus for model year 2026, the ID. Buzz rejoins the 2027 Volkswagen model lineup with a new offer structure — trims now include Pro S RWD, new Pro S 4Motion, new Tourer 4Motion and Pro S Plus 4Motion. The lineup also features revised color and wheel options.
Built off the European “Good Night Package,” the Tourer includes a fold-out mattress with platform, window blinds, front window ventilation panels, an exterior table and chairs, and Overnight Mode software that adapts interior and exterior functionality to enable the vehicle to be used for overnight stays. Built off the Pro S 4Motion model, the ID. Buzz Tourer adds a retractable tow hitch, Captain’s chairs, an electrochromic smart roof, Area View and 20-inch dark graphite wheels with black discs.
All ID. Buzz models benefit from Volkswagen’s latest ID.S 6 software. This Android-based system introduces enhanced content to improve the user experience, including a refreshed navigation home screen for quicker inputs and a new vehicle settings page for more intuitive access to interior features. ID. Buzz models come with a one-year trial of In-Vehicle Premium which introduces the new App Store that offers in-vehicle access to popular third-party apps such as YouTube and Spotify.
The ID. Buzz also features a North American Charging System (NACS) adapter and one pedal driving functionality.
The color offer has been simplified to reduce complexity. Only two-tone paint schemes will be offered, and new Candy White over Cherry Red scheme with white wheels evokes an iconic Type 2 Microbus color combination. The top trim now offers an optional 21-in wheel package.
For model year 2027, premium connected services will be bundled together in one In-Vehicle Premium subscription for increased convenience. Depending on the model, this includes available features:
- Premium navigation that includes real-time traffic and online POI
- Premium speech that incorporates ChatGPT
- Premium radio that allows access to more than 30,000 radio stations and more than 1 million podcasts
- Wi-Fi hotspot capability – with new App Store enabler for ID. Buzz
- New myQ Connected Garage, which adds remote access to your garage via in-vehicle touchscreen, voice command, geo-fencing and the myVW app
- New Travel Assist with assisted lane changing and available road data for ID. Buzz
- New AirConsole, which allows you to use the infotainment center as a gaming platform in conjunction with passengers’ smartphones
- New What3Words, which replaces complex coordinates with simple three‑word addresses, making precise navigation easier
Two advanced driver assist systems are significantly enhanced on Atlas, ID. Buzz, Golf family and Tiguan. Travel Assist now features assisted lane changes with an “on hold” wait-for-clear function, improved lane centering, and enhanced predictive Adaptive Cruise Control (pACC). In addition, Emergency Assist can now automatically move the vehicle to the right shoulder and bring it to a halt if it detects there is no driver interaction, as in the case of a medical emergency.
Select MY27 vehicles are expected to begin arriving in dealer showrooms in August, Volkswagen said, and others will be launched through early 2027.
