VW Transporter T32 Sportline


VW Commercial Vehicles is looking to add a new Sportline grade to Transporter range, making it look a little more aggressive. The new high-spec will be available initially on the T32 kombi model, giving it a set of 18" bi-color alloy wheels, a lowered suspension, deeper front and rear spoilers, trapezoid styling bars with puddle lights and carbon fiber mirror caps.


Inside, the Sportline features embossed leather interior trim, Climatic air conditioning, a heated windscreen and a Discover Media touchscreen sat-nav system. Furthermore, the first raft of kombi Sportline models will come with front parking sensors, LED headlights and taillights, USB port and App Connect.

The first model to be available in Sportline trim will be the Transporter T32 2.0 BiTDI 180 PS, which also comes with VW's acclaimed seven-speed DSG automatic. VW is also announcing that they'll be expanding the Sportline range by adding a panel van model, plus additional wheelbase and transmission options that can be ordered later this year (delivery early 2017). These models will come with a 201 hp 2.0-liter BiTDI engine and a choice of two gearboxes - a six-speed manual or a seven-speed automatic.


With a £ 36,295 (OTR exc VAT) price tag next to its name, Transporter Sportline customers are expected to take delivery in September.
