What we know!

Netherlands-based Tonke has been known far and wide for carrying out transformations of series models, such as the Volkswagen ID.Buzz, to a practical camper van just by adding a folding roof for five occupants. This results in a vehicle perfectly equipped to take the family wherever it needs to go when embarking on that next great adventure!

The Tonke ID.Buzz is not only equipped with a roof, but with range, with a battery pack that provides a practical length of travel of up to 265 miles. This means that motorists can reach their destination with ease and confidence, not having to worry about the battery.

The Tonke ID.Buzz is for the asking in two versions, the ID.Buzz Trail and the ID.Buzz Explorer. Both models are presented with equal premium quality and comfort, but stand apart with their own unique character suitable for different adventures. For example, the ID.Buzz Trail is ideal for the active adventurer, while the ID.Buzz Explorer allows one to travel in the lap of luxury.

Looking closely at the roof tent, it differs from a typical wedge design, but in this case folds out the side. As a result, the ID.Buzz gains extra headroom, and there is a bed on the side for three people and on the outside, there is a small porch to shelter from the sun or rain.

While the space within is somewhat limited, motorists have much to relish and enjoy, including the useful 35-litre fridge, plus a kitchen module with sink and induction hub. This can be used both inside and out, due to an extendable structure. In addition, the rear seats convert into a practical bed that can accommodate two adults when folded down at night, meaning this vehicle can set up to five people!

Those buyers who select the Explorer version will enjoy a fold-out kitchen module that is instead located at the rear, with Tonke designing and creating extendable drawers that hold just about anything and everything one would need for that next adventure. The best part of this system is that it frees up more space in the back.

The extended ID.Buzz, now exclusively at Tonke, gives motorists the ultimate freedom, perfectly suited for all sorts of adventures. When it comes to cost, while Tonke is still putting what are finishing touches to the lift-off roof and the Explorer version, the base price of it starts at about $52,000, with the optional roof costing about $7,900, including installation. The ID.Buzz Trail starts at $39,600.

When it comes to electric camper vans, this Tonke-converted offering is exciting! Electric, multifunctional and available in two models so as to suit individual needs, this vehicle has it all! From a large bed to the ability to cook inside and out, the ultimate in driving comfort is found here. Charge anywhere and realize no C02 emissions, therefore no environmental zone restrictions – the advantages of electric driving with this ID.Buzz are remarkable! Thanks to Tonke, a true conversion has taken place!
