Last year Volkswagen revealed its all-new T7 Multivan which is set to replace the current T6.1 Caravelle. The latest news to come from Volkswagen’s commercial division is that an outdoor-focused Multivan California is due to be revealed in 2023 and offered to markets in 2024.
Volkswagen will be expanding on what the firm calls the “California Universe” by offering specific support and solutions to buyers.
Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles CEO, Carsten Intra, commented on the announcement, “We want to expand the range around the business with our camping models – and thus offer our customers that special California feeling. These include digital services for the Cali Community, completely new services to complement the purchase of a vehicle… but also the show car presentation of the new California based on the Multivan. We are planning these for later in the year.”
We already know that the T7 Multivan will be powered by a 100 kW 1.5-litre turbopetrol engine, 150 kW 2.0-litre turbopetrol engine and a 110 kW 2.0-litre turbodiesel engine as well as a new e-Hybrid plug-in hybrid powertrain that combines a 1.4-litre turbopetrol engine and electric motor to produce 160 kW output.
Based on our experience with the T6.1 California Coast, the new Multivan California is expected to cater to just about all your camping needs and will surely be loaded with numerous useful features for life in the wild.
We will update this story as soon as more details and official images of the T7 Multivan California are revealed later this year.
