The
Volkswagen Crafter Kombi has enough space for up to five people and plenty of room for equipment behind the second row of seats. That’s the beauty of the Crafter kombi, providing the ideal solution if you need to carry crew and your equipment to site each day, with extra load space available via the removable rear dual seat bench. A choice of three wheelbases includes medium, long and long wheelbase maxi, with two roof heights also available. Glass in the rear sliding door and opposite panel enables passengers to see out, while metal rear side panels protects your load from prying eyes.
The high-performance diesel technology TDI is one of Volkswagen’s core competencies. BlueTDI is a new concept that makes this technology even cleaner: exhaust treatment reduces nitrogen oxides produced by up to 90 percent, making the BlueTDI the most environmentally-friendly diesel in its class. The BlueTDI already meets the Euro 6 emissions standard, which does not become obligatory until 2014.
Available on certain models is the 'Shiftmatic' lightweight gearbox which can be operated in either manual or automatic mode. In automatic mode all the gears are selected automatically by the control unit. In manual mode the driver pushes the gear lever forwards to change down or backwards to change up, giving all the benefits of a manual gearbox without the need for a manual clutch.
There are no set service intervals on the Crafter, thus so called 'The LongLife Service'. The interval between services depending on how you drive your vehicle and the conditions of use, can be anywhere up to a maximum of approximately 25,000 miles or 24 months (whichever comes first). The Service Interval Display in the instrument panel will indicate when a service is required.
