The Volkswagen ID. Buzz is sold out for 2022 in Norway and Germany even though deliveries have not begun yet.
Volkswagen is targeting sales of 15,000 ID. Buzz vehicles for 2022, which means that more than two-thirds of the available supply have already been sold. In 2023, the company expects to manufacture 60,000 of them and up to 130,000 a year thereafter. Prices for the ID Buzz start at 54,430 euros in Germany for the Cargo version and 64,581 euros for the five passenger Pro version.
But Hekneby wants Norway to do more. “The 2025 target has been a huge success, with cross-party agreement and good means of action. But we are only a little bit along the way, because there is still a very large part of the car fleet on the passenger car side that are not zero emission cars. Only 18 percent of the car fleet is fully electric today, and when we look to the future, we have to look at what that target should be.
Hekneby wants Volkswagen to be at the forefront of the EV revolution in Norway. Ideally, he would like the company to start selling only zero emissions vehicles by 2035 — five years before the rest of the market. “We are in a better position than the market today, with our zero emission share of the car fleet of 22 per cent.” He would like to see a scrappage program to encourage drivers to give up their conventional cars sooner.
