Oh, No: Volkswagen ID Buzz Doesn’t Have A Frunk

This was to be expected, though, given that no current vehicle built on the MEB platform has one.

The Volkswagen ID Buzz promises to be the roomiest and most practical vehicle built on the MEB platform, but it seems to be missing a frunk. The reason? Well because of its design and packaging, there just isn’t any space up front and engineers decided against it. Besides, no vehicle built on MEB actually has one, so we weren’t expecting the Buzz to have one either.

What do you think?

Clint Simone from Motor1 had the chance to walk around and experience a lightly camouflaged ID Buzz and was able to see some details that were previously unknown, like the inexistent frunk. As you can see in this video published on the Motor1 YouTube channel, you can open up the front compartment remotely, but once it opens up, you are greeted by visible hoses, cables and other mechanical bits, as well as the windscreen washer fluid filler cap.

Clint also shows off the charging port location, which is behind the rear wheel and below the corner of the tail light. The charge port door looks oversized for the connector it’s protecting, but for a commercial-type vehicle, this is actually a fitting look, even if it doesn’t serve a functional purpose.

We want your opinion!
