Volkswagen Multivan Of The New Generation: First Image

Volkswagen has published the first official photo of the new generation of the Transporter / Multivan family, which will receive the T7 index. The minibus on the teaser is presented with a luminous strip across the entire width of the front. According to Motor1, this may serve as a hint at the hybrid nature of the power plant.

• A similar strip is used, for example, on some versions of the Golf and Volkswagen electric cars. Judging by the teaser, the Golf for the novelty will also borrow the fundamental decision of the head optics. Overall, the T7 will retain its original silhouette, but as early spy photos demonstrated, the hood of the model will be noticeably smaller.
• As previously reported, one of the main power plants for the passenger modification of the VW Mulltivan T7 could be a hybrid drive from the Golf GTE with a 150-horsepower gasoline turbo engine and a 116-horsepower electric motor. Cargo-passenger versions and commercial vans, most likely, will continue to be equipped with a two-liter diesel engine in different recoil options. The choice between front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive should remain.

• The architecture of the interior will be built on the model of the eighth generation Volkswagen Golf for the minibus. Inside the VW T7, there will be a digital instrument panel and a large media system screen, as well as a number of touch keys instead of physical ones.
• Exactly when the official premiere is planned has not yet been specified. Meanwhile, the publication, relying on the almost complete absence of camouflage on the test prototypes, concludes that the debut will take place in the near future.
• The price of the Volkswagen Transporter T6.1 in Russia starts at 2,557,800 rubles.
