Of course, the future of van camping is electric. Arguably, in that future, the much-anticipated all-electric ID.Buzz from Volkswagen is going to be the lead. This modern, electrified variant of the retro VW Bus was expected in a campervan variant. Still, the company thought otherwise, and pushed the release back to fall 2024, citing lack of demand on the market as the reason for its thoughtful delay.
Before the camper version of the electric VW Bus can hit roads, there is a hardcore VW campervan repair and restoration outfit in Seattle, United States, by the name of Peace Vans that has introduced three fitting options to uplift the 2025 ID.Buzz into a capable campervan right from the word go when launched. Two options: either purchase an ID.Buzz directly from Peace Vans with your choice of the camper conversion option, or bring your own vehicle and return with it ready for the camping excursions.

Peace Vans has been at the forefront of retrofitting Volkswagens with camping solutions. Furthering its experience, it has three customizable units for camping enthusiasts who want their ID.Buzz to an adventure-ready vehicle. These are Buzz.Box, Buzz.Box.Sleeper, and Buzz.Camper. Ideal for tailgating or a day ride with a kitchen integrated into the back of the vehicle, the campers can go with the Box. But if you want the Box with a sleeping solution, opt for the Sleeper or you can go with the Camper for a full-fledged camp on wheels with a queen bed and indoor kitchen.
The Box, as we said, is designed for day trips. It comprises a kitchen complete with an integrated cooktop, a fridge, a sink, and some prep area. The Box would fit in the back of the ID.Buzz and would require the third-row seats removed to accommodate the kitchen setup. If you want some sleeping area along with the Box kitchen – so you can spend at least a weekend in the wilderness – choose the Sleeper option that includes a fold-out bed to transform the back of your van into a comfortable sleeping area.
For the more hardcore, of course, is the Camper add-on that would convert the ID.Buzz into an ultimate adventure van with a fully functional internal kitchen, a queen-sized bed, storage cabinets, and much more. The Camper unit would require the removal of both rows of seats, leaving you with just two seats up front. If you’re a couple wanting a campervan, you shouldn’t look beyond this. To make the integration somewhat lucrative for you, the three units are fairly priced by Peace Vans. The Buzz.Box would be $7,995, while Buzz.Box.Sleeper would cost $10,995. The price of the Camper unit is still under wraps even though the company has started taking pre-orders for all its variants with delivery expected in November.
