You might have had the same thought I did when first seeing the three-row 2025 Volkswagen ID. Buzz: what's the deal with that little window?

Encased within a whole bunch of other tinted glass on the Buzz's sliding rear doors is a small window. It was immediately apparent that this small window exists because the rest of the window clearly doesn't go down like they do on other vans, but what's the deal?

Well, for starters, it's a sliding window. Volkswagen points out that its previous busses had sliding rear windows. Fair enough. The main reason, however, is that the Buzz's rear side windows fit perfectly flush with the body work to achieve that oh-so-cool look and slippery aerodynamics. If you want perfectly flush windows, they can't roll down into the door. The solution is a sliding sub window like this.

However, it's important to see what this window looks like from inside.
