Two Volkswagen Models Earn Top Marks in 2025 Car Seat Safety Awards
We’re proud to share that two standout models in the Volkswagen lineup—the 2025 Volkswagen Atlas and the all-electric 2025 Volkswagen ID. Buzz—have earned top honors in Cars.com’s 2025 Best Cars for Car Seats awards. Out of 51 vehicles tested, the Atlas was one of just seven named to the official “Best Cars for Car Seats” list, while the ID. Buzz was recognized as a Top Finisher, a new category introduced for 2025.
At Bill Jacobs Volkswagen, we know that safety, comfort, and practicality are top priorities for families and these awards prove that Volkswagen continues to deliver.
“At Volkswagen, we know that for many families, choosing a vehicle starts with safety and practicality. That’s why it means so much to have the Atlas and ID. Buzz recognized in this year’s program. This award reflects our commitment to building vehicles that help make everyday life safer, easier, and more comfortable for parents and caregivers.”
– Thomas Zorn, Vice President of Vehicle Safety, Volkswagen Group of America.
Why it Matters
Cars.com’s annual report is based on real-world Car Seat Checks, where certified child passenger safety technicians install infant seats, convertibles, and high-back boosters into new vehicles. The evaluations focus on how well each car accommodates car seats and LATCH systems, with extra attention paid to ease of use and accessibility.
What Makes the 2025 Atlas Stand Out?
The three-row Atlas continues to earn straight A’s across the board. Whether you choose a model with a bench or captain’s chairs in the second row, the Atlas makes it easy to secure car seats with well-placed LATCH anchors and stable buckles. Even the third row remains accessible and practical for families on the go, earning it a well-deserved spot among the best of the best.
ID. Buzz: A Standout Electric Option for Families
The all-new, all-electric ID. Buzz impressed the experts with its wide, flat seats, exposed lower anchors, removable headrests, and easy third-row access, making it a fun and functional choice for families ready to go electric. As one of only 10 vehicles named a Top Finisher, the ID. Buzz delivers next-level versatility in a stylish, EV-friendly package.
Built for Family Life
The 2025 Atlas, built in Chattanooga, TN, offers seating for up to seven, enhanced tech and interior updates, and a starting MSRP of $38,200.
The 2025 ID. Buzz brings retro charm and modern functionality together with flexible seating, high-end tech like a 12.9″ infotainment display, IQ.DRIVE® driver assistance features, and a starting MSRP of $59,995.
Whether you’re growing your family or looking for a more practical way to move through everyday life, the Atlas and ID. Buzz are ready to meet the moment.
