The quick charging stats are acceptable for a 400 V powertrain. VW quotes 30-minute fast-charging from 10 to 80 p.c, with the battery in a position to settle for peak charges of 170 kW.

You need loads of area in a minivan, and there is a big quantity right here. Within the US, we solely get a three-row model of the Buzz, which affords options that the two-row, Euro-only model cannot, like air vents and opening home windows within the again.

Each center and third row are viable locations to place totally grown adults, even for lengthy drives. The specs truly give the third row the sting, with 42.4 inches (1,077 mm) of legroom versus 39.9 inches (1,014 mm) for the center row, and VW needed to concern a recall as a result of the rear bench is barely wider than federal guidelines permit in the event you solely have two seatbelts.
