The Volkswagen Transporter has always been more than just a van. From surf buses to family MPVs and high-spec camper conversions, it has shaped road trips and workdays alike for over 70 years. The T7 marks a major evolution, blending modern car-like technology with the practicality that made the Transporter legendary.
So what makes the T7 different, and is it the right base for your next adventure?
β
1. Smoother, Quieter Driving Experience
Compared to older Transporters, the T7 drives more like a premium SUV than a commercial van β ideal for long touring holidays.
β
2. Plug-In Hybrid (eHybrid) Option
The T7 offers a petrol plug-in hybrid system, meaning:
- Lower running costs
- Electric-only short trips
- Reduced emissions for city use
For weekend campers who use their van as a daily driver, this is a major selling point.
β
3. Modern Safety & Driver Assistance
Features such as adaptive cruise control, lane assist, digital cockpit, and advanced infotainment systems make the T7 one of the most technologically advanced camper bases available.
As we continue to adapt our layouts specifically for the T7 platform, we are already building T7-compatible Harvington Campervans, including rear kitchen and toilet-equipped designs. Join us on a walk around tour of our latest LWB VW T7 Harvington campervan creation....
