![]() > Find out why we think the best family car might actually be a van Back to the Multivan – why would I buy one of these instead of a seven-seater SUV? Set to go on sale in 2022 as a production version of the ID.Buzz concept – probably renamed the ID.7 – this will be sold as both a passenger carrier and a commercial vehicle. Just to add to the potential confusion, VW is also working on an all-electric van that’s almost the same size. The Multivan is based on the Volkswagen Group’s MQB platform – the one that underpins everything from the Golf to the Skoda Kodiaq SUV, but isn’t used for any vans bigger than the latest Caddy Cargo.Īnd while you can remove all of the rear seats, leaving you with a completely flat floor and as much as 4,053 litres of cargo space in the longer version (3,672 litres in the shorter model), the Multivan will only ever be a passenger vehicle at heart, and won’t be sold without all those windows.Īs such, the current VW Transporter van (code-name T6.1) will be sold alongside it until a dedicated replacement van arrives in 2023 – built on the same platform as the next Ford Transit Custom. > Sign-up for the Parkers newsletter So, VW’s built a van that’s not a van? All versions are fitted with a DSG automatic transmission as standard. Other innovations include a plug-in hybrid drivetrain, called eHybrid – and a first for a VWCV product – and seven fully individual seats, which are lighter and simpler to remove, making for an interior that’s more flexible than ever. It’s also available with no less than 34 driver assistance systems, boosting safety as well as making life easier for the person behind the wheel. It’s been developed and built by Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles rather than the car division, too – but the Multivan uses car components through and through, and promises to be much nicer to drive as a result. ![]() And it plays heavily on the Caravelle’s Volkswagen Transporter heritage to the extent that it even has a T7 code-name and has been revealed in this retro-tastic two-tone colour scheme. ![]() The Caravelle is now dead, replaced by this brand-new Volkswagen Multivan, which despite the name isn’t based on a van at all. Leaving those looking for a large vehicle suitable transporting lots of passengers in comfort mostly faced with a choice of van-based models – of which the Volkswagen Caravelle was among the very best.
