New Volkswagen Crafter now available for sale 

The new range is available in an Extra-Long Wheelbase (4,490 mm in length),  rear-wheel drive and a choice of 6-speed manual or 8-speed automatic gearbox. Its maximum gross vehicle weight (GVW) is 5 tonnes and is available with an option of standard high roof or super high roof.  

The new Crafter draws on the design structure and quality of its ‘little brother’, the sixth-generation Transporter: while looking dynamic and contemporary, it offers the greatest possible payload, a cargo volume of up to 17.5 m³ and a maximum cargo space height of 2,096 mm.

The line-up will feature a new 2.0 BiTDI engine (120kW), and an 8-speed automatic for the first time. New standard features include air-conditioning, 10.3-inch infotainment console with radio functionality, Bluetooth connectivity and inductive charging. A 12-inch digital instrument cluster, electronic parking brake, multi-function steering wheel controls and keyless start (push-start) are also standard for an enhanced driving environment.
