This is Jason Cammisa’s full review of the 2025 , plus perspective on why it matters so much to VW’s success here in America. === Join the Hagerty Driver’s Club: === After 23 years of teasers, VW’s new electric Bus is finally for sale in America. And this documentary-style review will teach you everything you need to know about the Buzz — and why it’s a bellwether for VW’s continued existence. Volkswagen’s history is easily divided into three chapters: the Aircooled VWs; the Watercooled VWs; and now, the Electric VWs. To understand why the is so important, we need to look back through VW’s three chapters to see how the presence of a high-emotion, style-first vehicle seems to be something without which Volkswagen can’t be successful in America. To that end, award-winning automotive journalist Jason Cammisa takes us on a journey from the original Type 1 Volkswagen (which we call “the Beetle“) and its platform-mates Bus, Karmann-Ghia, Squareback, Thing, and Porsche 356; through to the second-ever Volkswagens, the Mk1 Golf (i.e. Rabbit), GTI, Cabriolet, Scirocco, Jetta, and Caddy Pickup — plus the Concept One (New Beetle); and then onto today’s lineup of electric, MEB-platform VWs, including the ID.4, the only one sold in America so far. Cammisa is joined by SCCA Hall-of-Fame race-car driver Randy Pobst in period costume, pretending to smoke some Mary Jane (Pobst has never consumed marijuana), for flower-power comic relief.
