Volkswagen Multivan Kombi: Upgrading an icon

The iconic people carrier is back. 

Volkswagen Philippines has just brought in the latest version of the Multivan Kombi. This represents the highest version of the nameplate, as it has been transformed into an MPV designed to transport business executives in luxurious style and comfort.

Among all Volkswagen models, the Kombi has had the longest production run. It was first introduced in the country in the second half of the 20th century. The Kombi has various configurations catered for different uses. The Transporter is used for cargo and shuttle services, while the Caravelle is used as a practical mover. The California is used as a family camper.

Considered as a premium van, the Volkswagen Multivan Kombi offers several comfort and convenience features that will definitely make every ride feel luxurious. The cabin is equipped with Nappa leather seats, a multi-function table, and three-zone Climatronic air-conditioning system. The captain seats on the second row come with recline, slide, and swivel functions.

The vehicle is also equipped with an active info display and an eight-inch Discover Media with navigation. The cabin’s infotainment system can also be linked to a smartphone through Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

The Multivan Kombi also comes with electric dual sliding doors and tailgate. For a safer drive, it gets LED daytime running lights (DRLs), headlights, and taillights.

Under the van’s hood is a 330 TDI engine that generates a maximum power output of 150ps between 3,250 and 3,750rpm and a maximum torque of 340Nm between 1,500 and 3,000rpm. The engine is mated to a seven-speed Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG) with Tiptronic function and coasting feature.

To guarantee the safety of every occupant, the Multivan Kombi comes with six airbags and three-point seatbelts. Additional safety features include electronic stabilization program (ESP), hill start assist, anti-slip regulation, crosswind assist, and park distance control with rear camera.

Every purchase of a Volkswagen Multivan Kombi comes with two-year warranty coverage, 12-year no-thorough corrosion, and a two-year spare parts warranty.
