Volkswagen Multivan 2021 review | Chasing Cars

We drive the new Volkswagen Multivan and Transporter to see how this large vehicle compares.
Volkswagen says the new T6.1 van range is the biggest change to the vehicle since 2003. With new safety tech on board, plus a more modern interior and some changes to the dynamics of the van, the T6.1 is safer and more comfortable than the previous VW T6 iteration. But is this Hanover-built van the family car - or commercial van - you are looking for?
Vans make heaps of sense if you need configurable spaces behind the front seats. Whether that is in a stripped out panel van, something more sophisticated or just a big passenger bus, you’ll get more bodies and things in than any SUV.
The T6.1 primarily competes with the Kia Carnival on the passenger front and vehicles like the Ford Transit on the commercial front.
In today’s video, Tom takes a detailed look at the new Volkswagen T6.1 Multivan Cruise passenger van to give you detailed insights about this vehicle.

[@lifewithjohnny9724]

Great review! Would love to see the VW Multivan vs a Mercedes V250 comparison

[@gregrae280]

In future could you look at adding a review for the cars headlights .every car has different headlights and it becomes a factor for us people who live rural places . Thanks great reviews

[@autonewstv86]

Luxury life Multivan 😍 💯 👌

[@topher.m]

That two tone looks smart.

[@Olliebobalong]

Had my 6.1 DSG panel van in the UK for nearly 2 weeks. Absolutely love it.

[@user2144]

The T7 will be revealed in 2 weeks

[@Olliebobalong]

@@user2144 That didn't age well.

[@CathodeRayNipplez]

A new one cost less than an old one 🤣 The passenger area in the Comfortline is excellent, with tables and storage for wet things is halfway to a camper. Twin sliding doors are handy and with AWD this is a great thing for softroading like beach days. Good to see decent sized brakes on a van for a change too, most are a bit meh. 80 litre tank will give even the twin turbo version a +1,000 km range. I've been wanting a cheaper used one as a runabout camper for a while but they don't seem to depreciate as quickly as I would like.

[@alexsommer7009]

Never thought I would ever actually live to see this model launched! The 6.1 was a long time coming. Do you think it was worth the wait? Or should buyers have gone with a V-Klasse a year ago or a compromised with a Carnival in 2020?

[@user-nl7cm5ls2v]

Is multivan option awning，thanks

[@jaimomckinnon9633]

I think the Ute's are made in Poland, you might want to check that?

[@justinriddett9595]

Does it come with Apple Car play?

[@LightingComposition]

It would be nice if you can just give us a review. Like how it drives, a daily driver, who are this aimed for? Whats the pros and cons. Instead of just comparing the whole range of multivan.

Vw combi vans r skyrocketing in value

The ocean view is amazing. May I ask where is that place? Or name of place please

Sea Cliff Bridge - Stanwell Park NSW

[@swampgrampus]

If you are buying one, I would go for the twin turbo 2 litre. We had the single turbo 2 litre and the turbo-lag was really annoying, particularly at round-abouts.

[@hastensavoir7782]

147ps?

[@swampgrampus]

@@hastensavoir7782 yes we had the 140 PS with 251 ft-lb of torque (103kw, 340Nm). If you can find the 2.0 BiTDI instead, you will have a more enjoyable drive in traffic.

[@hastensavoir7782]

@@swampgrampus The only available engine in our country is the 147/150ps one. We have a 1999 VW Caravelle 2.5 TDI, I think it has 5 cylinders. Not sure of the horsepower figures.

[@glennbell5075]

How does it compare to the new Carnival?

[@chasingcars]

Certainly less comfortable and less refined, but also available in a much broader range of styles and configurations - not to mention as a factory camper

[@Zade_95]

van pog

[@eusko9616]

when it will be available in AMERICA

[@AppleSlipper]

The T6 California Ocean was showcased and promotions were shot in California, but not sold in the US.

[@999mrkhaled]

Why it’s much cheaper in Australia than uk

[@jameswebster4506]

love vans / don't like the alleged monkey positioning/ diesel gate !!!!!!!!!!!!! but love vans cool review

[@user2144]

The T7 will be revealed in 2 weeks

[@robertobaggio65]

It's a van that should be used for family or passengers and not a one-shot of cargo space let alone detailed info on it. How can this be a good review?

[@chautdm]

Put hybrid engine in this van please VW

[@MrSteelAu]

Thank you for sharing, you talk a lot is useless garbage advertising VW after listening to the long winded sales talk I finally got a little bit of useful information. Not sure who is your target audience

[@DS-gm8en]

Hi, VW Multivan is one very good van, the best European is from Mercedes Benz, that is V class and it could be even as EV, of course, that is my opinion.

[@thehuonpine]

I think VW should just went with the classic but with a bit of modern touch in their concept design rather than this boring design.

[@jwn851]

FIRST

[@Mexxx65]

Go right ahead before me..not looking for a multivan
