Latest-generation Volkswagen Transporter Chassis Cab available to order

Available in single or double cab variants, the new Transporter Chassis Cab can carry up to six passengers in double cab form and offers a payload capacity of up to 1,339kg in single cab specification.

Factory-specification drop-side bodies offer load space of either 5.2 m2 in single cab form or 4.2 m2 in double cab arrangement.

The range is available as a long wheelbase 140hp Euro V engine six-speed manual or seven-speed DSG. The new models also come with Volkswagen’s BlueMotion Technology modifications as standard, which includes low rolling resistance tyres, regenerative braking and Start/Stop systems.

Standard features now include BlueMotion Technology, DAB+ digital radio, 5-inch touchscreen, Bluetooth phone connectivity and USB connection. Also included is Volkswagen’s Automatic Post-Collision Braking system, which automatically applies the brakes after a collision, reducing the risk or severity of a secondary impact.

The range has been developed to complement the range of Volkswagen Crafter chassis and drop-side derivatives that are available through Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles’ ‘Engineered to Go’ programme.

Prices for the new range start from £21,265 (exc. VAT) for the LWB Single Cab Startline 2.0TDI 140hp Euro 5 six-speed manual.
