Inside, the cabin largely mirrors the Ford\u2019s setup, featuring a standard digital cockpit with a 12-inch instrument cluster and a 13-inch infotainment screen, plus a host of practical storage

class=\"wp-block-heading\">VW Transporter PanAmericana<\/h4>\n<p>The pictured blue van represents the Caravelle in the flagship Style trim, designed for nine passengers, while the green-yellow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/vw-transporter\/\">Transporter<\/a> panel van showcases the rugged PanAmericana variant. The PanAmericana stands out with its painted bumpers, matching fenders and side moldings, and 19-inch Indianapolis alloy wheels. Inside, you\u2019ll find illuminated stainless steel inlays on the side steps, high-gloss black accents, and exclusive seat fabrics adorned with PanAmericana branding.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of specifications, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/vw\">VW<\/a> claims that the T7 offers \u201cmore space, payload, towing capacity, and efficiency\u201d compared to its predecessor. The T6.1 had to be discontinued earlier this year due to not complying with the latest cybersecurity regulations in the European Union.<\/p>\n<div id=\"taboola-mid-article\"><\/div>\n<p>  window._taboola = window._taboola || [];<br \/>\n  _taboola.push({<br \/>\n    mode: &#8216;thumbnails-a-mid&#8217;,<br \/>\n    container: &#8216;taboola-mid-article&#8217;,<br \/>\n    placement: &#8216;Mid Article&#8217;,<br \/>\n    target_type: &#8216;mix&#8217;<br \/>\n  });<\/p>\n<div id=\"taboola-mid-article-thumbnails-organic\"><\/div>\n<p>  window._taboola = window._taboola || [];<br \/>\n  _taboola.push({<br \/>\n    mode: &#8216;thumbnails-oc-2&#215;1&#8217;,<br \/>\n    container: &#8216;taboola-mid-article-thumbnails-organic&#8217;,<br \/>\n    placement: &#8216;Mid Article Thumbnails Organic&#8217;,<br \/>\n    target_type: &#8216;mix&#8217;<br \/>\n  });<\/p>\n<p><strong>Plenty of Powertrain Options<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Depending on the variant, the new Transporter measures between 5,050 and 5,450 mm (198.8 \u2013 214.6 inches) in length, with wheelbases of either 3,100 mm (122 inches) or 3,500 mm (137.8 inches). <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2015\/04\/this-is-vws-all-new-t6-transporter-van\/\">It\u2019s longer and wider than its predecessor<\/a>, resulting in an increased maximum load capacity ranging from 5.8 to 9.0 cubic meters (204.8 to 317.8 cubic feet). The maximum payload varies up to 1.33 tonnes (2,932 pounds), with a towing capacity reaching 2.8 tonnes (6,173 pounds).<\/p>\n<p>The van offers a choice of three turbodiesels, a 2.5-liter plug-in hybrid, and three fully electric powertrain options. The least powerful diesel delivers 108 hp (81 kW \/ 110 PS), while the EV produces 282 hp (210 kW \/ 286 PS). Internal combustion engine models come with front-wheel drive, with optional all-wheel drive available for the more powerful diesels. In contrast, the electric versions (e-Transporter and e-Caravelle) are rear-wheel drive, though all-wheel drive options are anticipated in the future.<\/p>\n<p>The new Transporter and Caravelle made their first public appearance at the IAA Transportation 2024 in Hannover. Hollywood actor Jason Statham was tapped as the face of the campaign, cleverly nodding to his role in the \u201cTransporter\u201d film series.<\/p>\n<p>The VW Transporter T7 is already available to order in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/Germany\">Germany<\/a>, starting at \u20ac36,780 ($39,654) excluding VAT, or \u20ac43,768.20 ($47,188) including VAT for the entry-level diesel-powered panel van. Pricing for the passenger-oriented Caravelle is yet to be announced. Production will take place in Turkey, alongside the Ford Transit\/Tourneo Custom.<\/p>\n<div id=\"0f9edca9-aa84-4c07-8987-4cad23928c2d\" class=\"_ap_apex_ad\"> <\/div>\n<div id=\"e96f0476-8b1d-4bb8-b64c-33f9656987b2\" class=\"_ap_apex_ad\"> <\/div>\n<p> var adpushup = window.adpushup  = window.adpushup || {que:[]};<br \/>\n         adpushup.que.push(function() {<br \/>\n             if (adpushup.config.platform !== &#8220;DESKTOP&#8221;){<br \/>\n    adpushup.triggerAd(&#8220;e96f0476-8b1d-4bb8-b64c-33f9656987b2&#8221;);<br \/>\n             }<br \/>\nelse{<\/p>\n<p>     adpushup.triggerAd(&#8220;0f9edca9-aa84-4c07-8987-4cad23928c2d&#8221;);<br \/>\n}         });<\/p>\n<p>        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/VW-Transporter-Multivan-ID.Buzz_.jpg\" data-type=\"inarticle-image-block\"> <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\n<p>                    <img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" src=\"\" alt=\" New VW Transporter And Caravelle Debut With Diesel, PHEV, And EV Options\" width=\"2500\" height=\"1406\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/VW-Transporter-Multivan-ID.Buzz_-1024x576.jpg\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>        <\/a>  <\/p>\n<p>        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/VW-Trasnporter-T7-10.jpg\" data-type=\"inarticle-image-block\"> <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\n<p>                    <img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" src=\"\" alt=\" New VW Transporter And Caravelle Debut With Diesel, PHEV, And EV Options\" width=\"2500\" height=\"862\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/VW-Trasnporter-T7-10-1024x353.jpg\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>        <\/a>  <\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles<\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new 2025 VW Transporter and Caravelle are based on the Ford Transit and Tourneo Custom.
