As Eurovision frenzy continues to build ahead of Saturday's Grand Final, last year's runner-up, Sam Ryder, is touring Liverpool serenading passers-by from behind the wheel of the all-electric ID. Buzz Cargo.
After racking up more than 12 million followers on TikTok, Sam was chosen to represent the UK at the 2022 Eurovision Song Contest, where his performance of 'Space Man' saw the singer-songwriter claim second place, and become something of a national hero overnight.
'As a musician and surfer, I have always had a soft spot for 'van life'. We used to camp out in dad's work van at festivals, and those shows were what inspired me to make my own music.
'When I heard that Volkswagen had an all-electric van, inspired by the iconic Bulli camper, I jumped at the chance to drive one. It feels good to do my bit to help make Eurovision more sustainable.'

Buzz Cargo delivers an all-electric range of up to 256 miles*. Along with a five-seater people-carrying version named simply the ID.
