Volkswagen builds one millionth Transporter T5
VW Transporter T5
The successful T5 commercial van from Volkswagen has reached a milestone, with the one millionth vehicle being produced at the Hanover plant since its launch in March 2003. The van in question was a Transporter Van 1.9-litre TDI 62 kW in Tornado Red. Last year alone, Volkswagen supplied approximately 178,000 T5s to customers across Europe, including the UK.
The T5 is a popular choice for trade, service providers, workmen, local and regional authorities, ministries and private customers, for most transport and mobility requirements. The T5 is available as a van, dropside, double cab, Kombi or Caravelle, Multivan and California – so every customer requirement can fulfilled. One million vehicles is certainly an achievement, however Volkswagen still has an incentive to catch its predecessor model, the T4, of which approximately 1.7 million vehicles were produced.
Stephan Schaller, CEO of Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles commented “The T5 is and remains the number one in its segment for new registrations in Europe and Germany. This number is, furthermore, the product of all employees at Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles in Production, but also in Development and Procurement, in Quality Assurance, in Sales and everywhere in the brand and in our dealerships”. Volkswagen van leasing prices are available off the site on every combination of the T5 if you are interested.
