Volkswagen Dealers Cut 2025 ID Buzz Prices by Up to $15,000 as Inventory Builds
12 articles · Updated · MotorTrend · May 12
$15,000 in combined discounts is now available on some 2025 Volkswagen ID Buzz models, with listings dropping below $49,000 and one Ohio example advertised at $42,439.
Dealers are cutting deeply to clear slow-moving 2025 stock and make room for 2027 models after Volkswagen paused 2026 production to help reduce the backlog.
The markdowns reverse an earlier pattern of dealer markups on the retro-styled EV, whose U.S. launch was delayed and whose sticker price had climbed above $60,000.
Even at lower prices, the ID Buzz still faces a key hurdle: the Pro S RWD is rated at 234 miles of range, trailing similarly sized Kia EV9 and Hyundai Ioniq 9 rivals that also start cheaper.

After a skipped model year and massive recalls, can the 2027 ID Buzz truly fix its predecessor's fundamental flaws?
Is the ID Buzz's huge discount enough to overlook its known software flaws and limited real-world range?
