Volkswagen adds feature-packed Edition model to award-winning Transporter range

The award-winning sixth generation Volkswagen Transporter has already set new standards for comfort, style and safety features. But now, U.K. customers can take their ownership and driving experience to a new level with the introduction of an Edition model. Available to order now, the new Transporter Edition model is the most comprehensively equipped model in the range and features a design package that is guaranteed to make it stand out from the crowd.

Based on the existing Highline model, the new Edition features 17-inch Cascavel black diamond surfaced alloy wheels on 148bhp models, and 18-inch Springfield black alloy wheels on 201bhp models. Other design additions include high-gloss black roof and mirror housings, unique Edition decals and blacked-out LED taillights. All Edition models combine all the features and qualities that make the Transporter range the best all-rounder in its sector, including standard Front Assist and City Emergency Braking systems.

All models have a substantial payload and the same well-shaped, easily accessible load area as other models in the range. Volumes range from 3,500 litres for the kombi, to 5,800 litres for the panel van version. Edition models are available in short wheelbase, low roof form only. Both panel van and kombi versions can be specified with either a 2.0-litre TDI 148bhp or a 2.0-litre TDI 201bhp engine. Both are equipped with a six-speed manual transmission as standard and are available with a seven-speed DSG gearbox as an option.
