T6.1

Volkswagen made waves at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2019 with the unveiling of the updated T6.1 version of its renowned Transporter series. Representing a mid-cycle refresh, the T6.1 brought several notable enhancements to the table, signaling Volkswagen’s commitment to innovation and refinement in the commercial vehicle segment. One of the most significant updates was the introduction of electric power steering, a technological advancement that paved the way for the integration of more advanced driver assistance features compared to its predecessor, the T6. Alongside this technological leap, the T6.1 received subtle yet impactful styling updates, including a deeper front grille section that lent the vehicle a more assertive and contemporary appearance. Inside the cabin, drivers were treated to a revamped dashboard design, boasting updated infotainment systems reminiscent of those found in Volkswagen’s passenger car range. Furthermore, the T6.1 offered the option to equip the “Virtual Cockpit,” a fully digital instrument cluster that debuted in Volkswagen’s acclaimed Golf and Passat models, enhancing the driving experience with customizable displays and advanced connectivity features. With these enhancements, the T6.1 reinforced Volkswagen’s position as a leader in the commercial vehicle market, offering drivers unparalleled technology, comfort, and convenience in the ever-evolving landscape of urban mobility.
