There's more to the Volkswagen Multivan Black Edition than just a sticker pack.
The Volkswagen Multivan Kombi 70 has all the right ingredients to surf on the waves of nostalgia. But underneath the retro chic exterior, does it actually stack up as a people mover?
When you need to move a lot of people around, your options are limited. A seven-seat SUV might not have the 'daggy' stereotype of a people mover, but you can't argue against the practicality of a van. Over the Easter long weekend my family descended on my tiny apartment with big plans to explore the city and experience everything Sydney has to offer...
The 2016 Volkswagen Multivan Generation Six has retro appeal and modern-day smarts.
MPV. SUV. LCV. Three acronyms. Three different styles of vehicle designed to shift large families. The Multi-Purpose Vehicle (MPV) camp is represented by the Kia Carnival that accounts for about half of all people-mover sales in Australia. Released in 2015 in third-generation form, the Korean eight-seater has been given an update for 2018...
Whether you own a business or are a member of a big family, sometimes you just need a bus to get bodies from A to B. And other times you need to get those bodies there in comfort, luxury and style. Luxury people movers don’t make up a massive chunk of the market in Australia, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t an important part of the automotive landscape...
Details and pricing for the updated Volkswagen Transporter, Caravelle and Multivan 6.1 vehicles have been announced, ahead of their showroom arrival in November 2020.

The next-generation Volkswagen Multivan people mover has been spied during cold weather testing in Sweden. Compared to today's Multivan and Caravelle (pictured at the bottom of this article), the new model has a longer front overhang. While this was obvious in earlier development mules, which used body panels from the current T6...
Photographers have snapped a development prototype believed to be an early mule for the next-generation Volkswagen T7 during testing in Europe. The German automotive giant has only just started releasing the various members of the updated T6.1 family, which includes the Caravelle, Multivan and Transporter, but the next iteration is on its way already...
Volkswagen has recalled the 2017-18 'T6' Multivan over concerns about the electric doors and bootlid. According to the company, water could get into the interior of short-wheelbase T6 models with an electric bootlid and sliding doors, and run into their control unit. If water gets in, there's a risk of an incomplete short-circuit with local heat damage...
Things were different in the '70s when I first got my licence. Back then you drove a Ford Falcon or a Holden Kingswood, maybe a Valiant if you wanted something unusual.
