Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles has finally revealed the new Multivan, the vehicle with elegant design, super flexible interior, and plug-in options.

The Multivan is the current replacement of the Caravelle model, and provides customers with a total of 7 seats and ensures the perfect balance between practicality, comfort, and safety.

Exterior design

The Multivan features an elegant exterior design and pays homage to the classic 1985 Transporter T3 with its horizontal lines and full-width grille and headlights. The A-pillars have been refreshed to improve visibility, and the front and rear light signatures contribute to this contemporary look. Furthermore, the front air intakes are now smaller and they also pay tribute to the heritage of the rear air-cooled engines of the 80s.

The vehicle can also be specified with a panoramic glass roof, with LowE laminated safety glass, and numerous more custom features. Furthermore, the Multivan is fitted with LED headlights as a standard feature, but can also be geared with the optional IQ.LIGHT – LED matrix.

Interior design

Inside, the Multivan provides enhanced flexibility and space, thanks to the special seating system and the innovative table.

This multi-functional table has been specially designed for the Multivan and can be moved between any of the seating rows, and also can be used as a central console between the front seats. This is a completely removable table with adjustable height and features cup holders and a storage bin.

Also, because of the completely flat floor, the seating setup can be amended in any way possible, which gives tons of possibilities for customization and convenient setups for any kind of job.

Drivetrain system

The drivetrain system of the new Multivan is based on the MQB platform and offers a total of 2,000kg of towing capacity.

Furthermore, the Multivan eHybrid is geared with a 1.4 TSI 150hp power unit and an 85kW electric motor that together generate a total of 218hp output.

The front-wheel-drive Multivan can also be specified with two four-cylinder turbocharged petrol units: 1.5 TSI 136 PS and a 2.0 TSI 204 PS. A four-cylinder turbo diesel, and a power output of 150 PS, will join next year. All of these are twinned with a seven-speed DSG gearbox as standard.

Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles announces new details for the anticipated Multivan. What we know so far is that the latest generation of the van will try to be even more functional than all previous models combined and showcase new ways of enhancing functionality and comfort.

The latest generation of the Multivan will come with tons of interior space – a great amount has been achieved by transforming the gear knob into a switch and thus reducing its size to a minimum, so the gap for climbing through the back becomes even bigger.

Generosity in the interior. We have taken out the gear knob. We’ve even cleared the space in the middle, assigned it to the driver. The new Bulli will be an exciting product. You can look forward to it, The Head of Design at Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, Albert Kirzinger says.

As a leading manufacturer, VW is constantly reshaping the transportation of goods, services, and people in a contemporary fashion. Brand’s vehicles have helped families and businesses in their everyday tasks. And now, the wait is almost over as Volkswagen is about to reveal one of the most functional and flexible vehicles in its lineup – the Multivan!

The Multivan remains the master of transformation: it can be the family MPV, a business vehicle, a sports gear transporter, a camper, and tons of other things. The first generation has already received a legendary status. Now, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles is ready to present the next family member that would further enhance the flexibility of the vehicle.

However, there are some differences and changes, compared to the previous generations. The seats will be of higher position, there are a total of five rear seats that can be removed, and last, but certainly not least, the vehicle will adopt all the handy functions from T3, T4, T5, T6, and T6.1.

Also, there will be only individual seats – the full-width bench seats on the third row is no more. At the same time, the new individual seats of the second and third rows adopt a lighter and more comfortable construction.

Albert Kirzinger, Head of Design at Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, explains in a short video why flexible seats and a middle seat that is both movable and removable are so important for a Multivan: “It is wonderfully practical. And a car is practical if it can be used flexibly. To that end, we’ve created a new seating system. You can easily take seats out to get your sports equipment, mountain bike and/or surfboard into this generously proportioned space. With these seats, everything is possible in the new Multivan.”
