Charging Speed

The Volkswagen ID. Buzz has the higher published DC charging figure at 200 kW, which is roughly 74% higher than the Maxus MIFA 9 at 115 kW. In practice, that figure only tells part of the story. The charging curve, battery temperature, and state of charge all affect how quickly your car actually charges.

For the published fast-charge window, the Volkswagen ID. Buzz is listed at about 26 minutes, which is 16 minutes quicker than the Maxus MIFA 9 at 42 minutes. On a road trip, that difference adds up over multiple stops.

Range and Efficiency

The Volkswagen ID. Buzz has a WLTP rated range of approximately 487 km, which is roughly 87 km more than the Maxus MIFA 9 at approximately 400 km. WLTP is a standardized lab test. Expect your actual range to be lower, varying with speed, weather, terrain, and driving style.

Efficiency matters more than battery size for daily driving costs. The Volkswagen ID. Buzz consumes 221 Wh/km, compared to 233 Wh/km for the Maxus MIFA 9. That means the Volkswagen ID. Buzz uses less energy per kilometer, which translates to lower charging costs and fewer charging stops on longer drives.

A more efficient car does not always mean more range. Battery size plays a role too. The Volkswagen ID. Buzz has approximately 86 kWh of useable battery , while the Maxus MIFA 9 has approximately 84 kWh.

Which One Should You Choose?

If fast charging is your priority, the Volkswagen ID. Buzz has the higher published DC figure (up to 200 kW) and the shorter published charge time at approximately 26 minutes. For long road trips, published stop time matters more than the headline kW number alone.

Both cars support 11 kW AC charging, so home and workplace charging speeds will be similar.

If you mostly charge at home or at work and care more about daily driving costs, the Volkswagen ID. Buzz is the more efficient choice at 221 Wh/km. Lower consumption means lower electricity bills over time.

For maximum range between charges, the Volkswagen ID. Buzz has a WLTP rated range of approximately 487 km, which is roughly 87 km more. Both are capable EVs. The best choice depends on how you charge and how far you drive.
