Safety as standard

Your guardian angel

All Volkswagen vans come with a suite of innovative safety features as standard. Some of the features include Front Assist with City Emergency Braking, Multi-Collision Brake, Crosswind Assist and Front and Rear Park Distance Control. These technologies have been designed to assist you in everyday driving and on the job3.

Off-road capabilities

Go here, go there, go everywhere

Be a smooth operator in almost any terrain, you have the option to choose 4MOTION and the mechanical differential lock. 4MOTION allocates the engine’s power across all four wheels as needed, preventing wheel spin and locking, while the mechanical differential lock makes starting up in adverse, off-road conditions much easier.
