Volkswagen confirms next-gen T-Series
Demand for the current generation T5 Transporter continues to grow.

Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles is gearing up for the IAA Trade Fair in Germany and has used the event to confirm a new model of the Volkswagen Transporter will hit the market next year.

The current model, the T5, continues to be a global sales magnet for Volkswagen with sales up almost six percent so far this year, but despite the success an updated version has been under development for the past two years.

Dr. Eckhard Scholz, CEO of Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, says the Transporter is the brands most important model.

“(The T6) will incorporate the excellent characteristics of the T5 and it will also feature a whole load of new technology innovations,”

“The result will again be an outstanding, reliable, technically refined, mobile companion for our customers to pursue their trade and leisure time activities.”
