Mercedes-Benz eVito vs Volkswagen ID. Buzz

Side-by-Side Specs

Charging Speed

The Volkswagen ID. Buzz has a peak DC charging speed of 200 kW, which is roughly 82% faster than the Mercedes-Benz eVito at 110 kW. In practice, peak speed 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 10-80% charge (the most common DC fast charging scenario), the Volkswagen ID. Buzz finishes in about 26 minutes, which is 9 minutes quicker than the Mercedes-Benz eVito at 35 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 462 km, which is roughly 148 km more than the Mercedes-Benz eVito at approximately 314 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 250 Wh/km for the Mercedes-Benz eVito. 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 Mercedes-Benz eVito has approximately 60 kWh.

Which One Should You Choose?

If fast charging speed is your priority, the Volkswagen ID. Buzz wins on both peak power (up to 200 kW) and time at the plug (approximately 26 minutes from 10-80%). For long road trips with multiple charging stops, that faster turnaround makes a real difference.

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 462 km, which is roughly 148 km more. Both are capable EVs. The best choice depends on how you charge and how far you drive.
