Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles has revealed its latest people - the Caravelle Business – which it describes as a mobile conference room.

The six-seat Caravelle Business includes a sociable rear lounge area with four individual seats and an adjustable table. Like every Caravelle, the two middle seats swivel to face forwards or backwards, but the Business is upgraded with Nappa leather upholstery while the rear bench seat is replaced by a twin seat console that is multi-adjustable and heated with an integrated fridge between the seats.

The interior of the Caravelle Business is enhanced with burr wood inserts in the rear passenger compartment, plus the added safety of curtain airbags, while for the driver's convenience there is cruise control, satellite navigation with 6.5 in colour screen and 30GBhard drive, a leather multi-function steering wheel, lane change assist to warn of vehicles in the driver's blind spot, and a programmable heater to ensure the interior can always be ready at the desired temperature.

There is also WiFi and Bluetooth, and a second battery with cut-off relay ensures the rear seating area can be powered independently.

Externally, the Caravelle Business has privacy glass, 17in alloy wheels, darkened rear light clusters, electrically folding door mirrors and a laminated windscreen for improved noise damping.

It also has front and rear parking sensors with reversing camera and Xenon headlights with automatic activation, LED daytime running lights, headlamp washer system and heated front washer jets, while electric sliding side doors provide easy access and exit for rear passengers.

Performance is delivered by Volkswagen's most powerful 2.0-litre 180PS bi-turbo TDI engine. With 400 Nm of torque from 1,500 rpm, combined with DSG transmission as standard, sees the Caravelle Business achieve 34.9 mpg on the combined cycle and Euro5 emissions of 214 g/km.

The Caravelle Business is now on sale with retail prices starting from £53,856 (plus VAT), or £56,069 (plus VAT) with 4MOTION transmission.
