2021 Transporter

The legacy of the Volkswagen Transporter goes way back to the late-1940s.

It was a light-commercial vehicle built using the Beetle chassis, a model that would go on to become the best-selling car ever.

This was codenamed the Type 2 and would find fame in its camper van version that was the poster-car for the 1960s.

Over the years since it has gone through 6 redesigns and lost its rounded bubble-like exterior in favor of a sharper boxier design.

This 2021 Transporter is the last model year of the T6 classification before the new T7 comes in during the 2022 model year.

2021 T6 VW Transporters are built on a unique platform rather than one that is shared among many different VW brand cars.

All engines are 2-liter in displacement but available as gasoline or turbodiesel with a sporty twin-turbocharged diesel also available.

Customers do have the choice of a manual or automatic transmission and the standard front-wheel-drive of the 2021 model can be upgraded to a four-wheel-drive if desired.

These 2021 models are technically classed as T6.1 due to a facelift that occurred in 2019 which brought electric power steering and an updated infotainment system.

To embrace the desire by customers to create custom campervans of the T6 VW launched their own factory-made version called the California.
