Here’s how an electric utility vehicle can make children dream

The electric Volkswagen ID. Buzz transforms into a rolling arcade room to celebrate PAC-MAN’s 45th anniversary.

At first glance, an electric van is not exactly a vehicle that sparks children’s imaginations. However, with its PAC-MAN themed Volkswagen ID. Buzz, Volkswagen shows that a simple trip can quickly turn into a video game adventure.

On the occasion of the MCM Comic Con London 2026, the German manufacturer celebrates the 45th anniversary of the iconic yellow character with a very special version of its neo-retro electric van. And the most surprising things happen on board: visitors can play PAC-MAN Championship Edition directly on the vehicle’s screen thanks to AirConsole, a gaming platform designed specifically for cars.

More fun on board

The operation is as simple as it is fun. Once the game is launched on the vehicle’s multimedia system, passengers use their smartphones as controllers by scanning a QR code displayed on the screen. This keeps the kids entertained during a charging break or before hitting the road again.

With its look inspired by the legendary Volkswagen Combi, the ID. Buzz already cultivates a strong appeal. This collaboration with the video game universe further enhances its family-friendly and quirky image. The electric van thus transforms into a small rolling arcade, capable of captivating both nostalgic parents and younger passengers discovering PAC-MAN for the first time.

Volkswagen also announced the upcoming arrival of the new Innovision multimedia system on the ID. Buzz. This will integrate an app store allowing various services to be downloaded directly into the vehicle: streaming, charging, parking… and video games.

So, even a utility vehicle can today awaken children’s imaginations and turn every stop into a playful moment.
