Volkswagen Caravelle Business revealed for UK

By George on June 9th, 2012

To meet the latest communications needs of today’s business travellers and VIPs, a prestigious new flagship model has been introduced by Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles – the Caravelle Business.

Caravelle Business is designed to be a mobile conference room with state of the art technology, including Wi-Fi internet connectivity and Bluetooth, combined with the ultimate in luxury.

The Caravelle Business features six seats (including driver) including a sociable rear lounge area with four individual seats and an adjustable table. Like every Caravelle, the two middle seats swivel to face forwards or backwards, but the Business is upgraded with the highest quality Nappa leather upholstery while the rear bench seat is replaced by an opulent twin seat console which is multi-adjustable and heated with an integrated fridge between the seats.

Other highlights include curtain airbags, satellite navigation with 6.5 in colour screen and 30GBhard drive, a leather multi-function steering wheel, lane change assist to warn of vehicles in the driver’s blind spot, and a programmable heater to ensure the interior can always be ready at the desired temperature. A second battery with cut-off relay ensures the rear seating area can be powered independently.

Exterior is distinguished with privacy glass, 17in alloy wheels, darkened rear light clusters, electrically folding door mirrors and a laminated windscreen for improved noise damping.

Under the hood is a 2.0-litre 180PS bi-turbo TDI engine mated to a DSG transmission as standard.

The Caravelle Business is now on sale with retail prices starting from £53,856, or £56,069 plus taxes with 4MOTION transmission.
