For me, the only EV that really makes a difference, purely on looks alone, is the VW ID. Buzz. We all know the Teslas by now, but every other brand seems determined to make their electric models so unattractive that no one would dare drive one for personal use. I’m exaggerating, of course, but you get my point. The ID. Buzz, even in its stock form, is a looker. But with the right modifications, like the one we’re featuring today, it becomes something else entirely.

Enter Jeroen Hendriks, the proud owner of the first VW ID. Buzz in the Netherlands to ride on air suspension. But there’s a lot more going on here than what first meets the eye. Irmscher, always quick to jump on a trend, developed a complete body kit for the ID. Buzz early on, and Jeroen? Well, he ticked every box on Irmscher’s order sheet.

Pair that with the extreme drop courtesy of a custom Airride setup from Bonhof, and you’ve got an ID. Buzz that’s turning heads at every event it attends. The wheel arches are fully filled out by a set of Vossen wheels, 22×9 inches in the front and 22×10.5 inches in the rear. But Jeroen let me in on a little secret: three weeks ago, he ordered a fully custom set of 22-inch wheels, and I can’t wait to see the final result once they’re mounted.
