History & notable variants

The T6 underwent a mid-cycle refresh to become the T6.1 in 2019, featuring electric power steering for enhanced driver assist functions and minor styling updates. In 2020, ABT e-Line collaborated with VW to introduce the ABT e-Transporter 6.1 as an electric variant of the T6.1. The T6 series was discontinued in favor of the MQB-based Multivan T7 due to EU regulations requiring cybersecurity compliance for new vehicles from 2024.
