Best New Electric Vehicles in 2023 & Beyond

With fuel prices rising and electric vehicle design soaring in performance and affordability, it’s no surprise that many of 2023’s best vehicle releases are fully electric. The best electric vehicles of the year offer an excellent driving experience, practically distant range, and high-powered charging on the go. If you’re in the market for a new electric vehicle this year or in the near future, let’s take a closer look at the top EV models to choose from.

Rairdon’s Volkswagen is proud to share the details and help you make the best decision for your needs and finances.

Volkswagen EVs Are Taking Over

Volkswagen has always been a leading care manufacturer. Well-established, trusted, and notoriously affordable, VW also owns many other names in vehicle manufacturing, including Audi, SKODA, Lamborghini, Porsche, Bentley, SEAT, CUPRA, and Ducati. Together, they are the second leading automobile seller after Toyota and are giving Tesla a run for its money in electric vehicles sold worldwide.

This year, Volkswagen impresses us once again with newly released EVs, including the ID.4 SUV and the ID.Buzz Microbus. Both are designed for adventure, utility, and comfort, with superior EV performance and the latest feature packages.

2023 Vw Electric Vehicle Lineup for 2023 & Beyond

2023 VW ID.4

The VW ID.4 2023 model is a beautiful Volkswagen electric SUV with a sleek, rounded body shape and a comfortably cutting-edge interior. The ID.4 hits the market for an enthusiastic audience ready to see the next generation of commuter and adventure EVs.

Ev Motor, Power, and Performance

The VW ID.4 offers a range of trims, including Standard, Pro, Standard S, Pro S, and Pro S Plus. Standards have rear-wheel drive and 201hp, while upgrades offer all-wheel drive with a second motor which ups the horsepower to 295. It provides a smooth ride that optimizes safety and performance.

Range, Charging, and Battery Life

All ID.4 Standard offers a range of 208 miles, while upgrades with all-wheel drive offer 275 miles between charges. Upgrades can also DC fast-charge at public chargers, together making it comparable to the Hyundai Kona and the Kia Niro.

Pricing and Which One to Buy

While the rear-wheel drive Standard trim is the most affordable, the best bang for your buck can be found with the Pro trim, offering the best price for the upgraded 4-wheel drive, more horsepower, and extended range.

2025 VW ID.Buzz

Going for a classic VW Microbus look, the ID.Buzz will be an EV take on the most traditional Volkswagen design. These cute EV VW vans provide a spacious cabin and nostalgic style with flexible seating in three rows and 40+ cubic feet of available cargo space. Not yet available, fans of the Microbus style have their fingers crossed for the upcoming release.

Ev Motor, Power, and Performance

The ID.Buzz features a rear-mounted 201hp motor providing 229 pf of torque. It has been said there will also be a dual-motor, all-wheel-drive option for 295 hp, modeled after the SUV ID.4 design.

Range, Charging, and Battery Life

It has been reported that the ID.Buzz will have a range of at least 260 miles per charge with a DC fast charging option from 5 to 80 percent in just 30 minutes.

Pricing and Which One to Buy

Currently, only one trim estimated at $40,000 has been defined, but with promises of two different motor and drive options, we’ll see soon what the trim options have in store.

2025 ID.Buzz Release Date (United States)

The VW ID.Buzz release date is something many people are looking forward to. The 2025 model year ID.Buzz EV Microbus will be released in June 2023 in the US.
