Developed for everyone. Tailored to you.

Every business has its own unique set of needs from a commercial vehicle. Crafter chassis can meet your most demanding requirements. We work with a wide range of Volkswagen approved converters to turn your Crafter chassis cab into a tailor-made commercial vehicle.

If you choose a body that needs extra power or cooling equipment, you can have your Crafter chassis fitted with extra electric generators or air conditioning compressors. And if you want to control your bodies with your smartphone, we can fit the chassis with a customer-specific function control unit.

Lane Assist countersteers the vehicle if the driver unintentionally drifts from a lane. The system also emits audible and visual warnings via the multi-function display to alert the driver of danger.

This optional extra aids positioning into parking spaces. When reverse gear is engaged, the vehicle automatically assumes control of the steering. All the driver has to do is operate the clutch, accelerator and brake.

Available as an option, Rear Traffic Alert helps by emitting an audible warning when reversing out of a parking space if another vehicle is getting too close. If the driver fails to respond, the system intervenes and applies braking to help avoid a collision.

The optional high-beam assistant automatically dips the headlights for oncoming vehicles or vehicles travelling ahead before they're dazzled. When activated, the system automatically switches on the high-beam headlights when the vehicle is travelling above 37 mph in complete darkness.

Fitted as standard, Electromechanical Servotronic steering provides a speed-sensitive operation with active return. This improves the steering sensation around the mid-point, providing a level of steering precision previously nonexistent in commercial vehicles.

If seatbelts aren't fastened, the seatbelt warning reminds the driver and the front passenger to fasten their belts with a visual warning when the engine is started, and an audible warning after setting off.

The driver alert system is fitted as standard. It warns the driver with visual and audible warning signals to recommend a break from driving as soon as it registers behaviour that indicates tiredness.

Road Sign Display (not illustrated)

This optional system detects road signs and informs the driver of any driving restrictions.

Hill Descent Assist (not illustrated)

The optional Hill Descent Assist system lets you drive down slopes in a safe, controlled way by adjusting the engine speed and applying the brakes if necessary.

Hill Start Assist (not illustrated)

Hill Start Assist is fitted as standard and stops your vehicle from rolling back and makes handling easier when starting up on uphill slopes.

At 19 mph and above, the optional cruise control system maintains the set speed through uphill and downhill inclines.

These lights improve visibility in adverse weather conditions. The headlight on the inside of the curve illuminates the roadside when turning.

The optional tyre pressure monitoring system displays the current pressure for each tyre and warns you if it's not in range.

Hard work deserves a comfortable ride. The optional ergoComfort suspension seat cushions any bumps and jolts in the road, has a 20-point adjustment system for custom comfort, and can even be fitted with heaters and a massage function.

With its optional and easy to control air conditioning system you can enjoy a comfortable climate with just the push of a button. It can even cool the glove compartment so you always have a cold drink on hot days. And in the colder months, the optional programmable auxiliary heater keeps you warm inside with clear, de-iced windows.
