Volkswagen Transporter 2024

When you need to move serious stuff, the Transporter is the Nordic standard. This T6 panel van packs a 2.0 TDI diesel with 6-speed manual — bulletproof reliability and 7+ L/100 km even when fully loaded.

The cargo bay swallows 5.8 to 6.7 cubic metres depending on roof height — a full IKEA kitchen, two mountain bikes plus camping kit, or a small band’s touring gear. Twin sliding side doors and wide-opening rear barn doors make loading from three sides effortless. Tie-down rails, interior lighting, and a load-space partition come standard.

In the cab: three-abreast seating with a centre jump seat, air conditioning, electric windows and mirrors, and a DAB radio. It’s a workhorse, not a luxury van — but it drives easier than you’d expect, with the height and visibility of an SUV.

Ideal for moves, trade jobs, family camping trips, or shuttling the football team to away games.
