Volkswagen Crafter for Your Business Needs

Safety is of the utmost importance to Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles and that’s why the new Crafter has been fitted with innovative safety features designed to deliver all-round protection. Essential safety systems such as ESP (Electronic Stabilisation Programme) combined with Brake Assist and Crosswind Assist, MCB (Multi-Collision Braking), TCS (Traction Control System), and EBD (Electronic Brake-force Distribution) are all standard in the Crafter. Whether you’re moving people, cargo or both, the Crafter works hard to keep them safely and securely on the road with a driver and passenger airbag as standard, three-point seat belts, remote-controlled central locking and an optional anti-theft alarm.

The Crafter is fitted with a full metal partition without a window, which separates the cab from the freight in the load compartment. The load area of the Crafter has also been equipped with lashing eyes as standard so your load can be secured using tie-down belts. The lashing eyes have a strong retention force of 500daN(kgs). There are 10 lashing eyes in the medium wheelbase version of the Crafter, 12 lashing eyes in the long wheelbase and 14 standard lashing eyes in the long-wheelbase with extended rear overhang. Two of the foldable lashing eyes are located in the B-pillars.

The Crafter also offers handy driver assistance systems as optional. These include Park Assist and Trailer Assist, which automatically steer the Crafter to parallel park or reverse-park your trailer, and Park Distance Control with proximity sensors. With all of this at your disposal, buying the new Crafter is truly one of the safest decisions you can make.

Robust and reliable. The Crafter boasts a payload of up to 2.5 tons and a loading length of 4,606mm, making sure that no job ever becomes a burden. And with rear doors that open 180⁰   and 270⁰ depending on the model, you’ll always be open for business.

To make sure your business goes exactly where you want it to, the Crafter’s engine upgrades will help you take it there. Both the Crafters 35 and 50 feature 2.0l TDI engines. Crafter 35 features a 103 and 130kW engine variants, Crafter 50 features 120kW manual.

Attention has been given to every detail in the new Crafter to ensure the comfort and safety of the driver and passengers. The cab ergonomics have been enhanced to ensure higher levels of practicality and ease of use in order to support the crew in their challenging work day. Improvements include robust seat upholstery for durability, a revised instrument cluster and control panel as well as plenty of storage compartments for a professional workspace.

The cab climate is easily controlled with a fresh air ventilator including air recirculation and heating as standard. Other standard interior features include power steering, heat-insulating glass, electric windows, radio preparation and door pockets.
