Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles is set to launch the new Crafter in the first half 2025. <\/p>\n
The new Crafter will come standard with digital instruments such as the Digital Cockpit and a 10.3-inch infotainment display based on the latest modular infotainment matrix (MIB). The visually freestanding Volkswagen system has a newly developed graphical interface and self-extensive technical update for the now Crafter explanatory menu navigation. <\/p>\n
The handbrake and the switch for the automatic gearbox have been redesigned, as well as the controls for the light functions, the buttons in the centre console and all vents.<\/p>\n
The range of new standard and optional assist systems raises the successful product line to a new level and thus makes everyday work easier for Crafter drivers. <\/p>\n
All new Crafter derivatives will have the following systems on board as standard in future: digital instrument cluster, multi-function steering wheel, keyless start, electromechanical parking brake with hill-hold, 10.3-inch infotainment with manual air conditioning, inductive charging and acoustic Park Distance Control for the front and rear area<\/p>\n
The new model offers drivers maximum flexibility and the widest model range in the class: up to three different vehicle lengths are available, depending on the model chosen: 5.9 m, 6.84 m or 7.39 m. Panel van variants also come with one of three different roof heights: 2.35 m, 2.59 m or 2.79 m.<\/p>\n
Unlike in the previous generation Crafter, the new model is available with front or rear-wheel drive, 6-speed manual or 8-speed automatic transmission, plus 4MOTION four-wheel drive. Its maximum gross vehicle weight (GVW) ranges from 3.50 tonnes (35 LCV), 388 tonnes (35 MCV) and 5.00 tonnes (50 MCV) and is available in a wide variety of derivatives. <\/p>\n
The new Crafter draws on the design structure and quality of its \u2018little brother\u2019, 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<\/p>\n
The line-up will feature new 2.0 TDI engines (103kW, 120kW and 130kW), an 8-speed automatic transmission on the 50 variants as well as a long-wheel base alternative on the 35 4MOTION.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
