VW ID. Buzz is 2025 Green Van of the Year.
"Volkswagen's ID. Buzz, a battery electric homage to the storied VW Microbus of an earlier era, is a worthy winner of the 2025 Green Van of the Year award," said Ron Cogan, Editor and Publisher of Green Car Journal and GreenCarJournal . "Equally exciting award winners in their segments are Ford's Maverick compact pickup and Fiat's electric 500e, a back-to-back winner of the magazine's Urban Green Car of the YearTM award."
The iconic VW ID. Buzz electric van is powered by single or dual motors with 282-330 horsepower, seats up to seven, and features a driving range up to 234 miles. Finalists included the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid, Kia Carnival, Mercedes-Benz Sprinter EV, and Toyota Sienna.
Fiat's 500e is unique among its peers as the ultimate right-sized electric city car that's Italian-chic, nimble, fun, and highly maneuverable in urban environs and elsewhere due to its modest footprint. Finalists included the Hyundai Kona, MINI Countryman SE ALL4, and Nissan Kicks.
The Ford Maverick compact pickup makes for a compelling work truck with its hybrid efficiency, reasonable price of entry, and welcome truck functionality. Finalists included the Bollinger B4, Chevrolet Silverado EV Work Truck, Ford F-150 Lightning, and Isuzu NRR EV.
