The new models also benefit from Volkswagen’s acclaimed BlueMotion Technology modifications as standard, which includes low rolling resistance tyres, regenerative braking and Start/Stop systems. The Chassis Cab range is offered with either 6-speed manual or 7-speed DSG transmission.

The latest incarnation of the Transporter boasts a host of new standard features including BlueMotion Technology, DAB+ digital radio, 5-inch touchscreen, Bluetooth phone connectivity and USB connection. Standard equipment also includes Volkswagen’s acclaimed Automatic Post-Collision Braking system, which automatically applies the brakes after a collision, reducing the risk or severity of a secondary impact.
