Volkswagen is expanding its Transporter line-up with the addition of a new top-of-the-range Sportline variant, as well as new Commerce Pro S trim.

The Sportline celebrates the 75th anniversary of the Volkswagen Bus and is said to represent “the most distinctive and emotionally charged expression of the Transporter range”.  

It gets new front and rear bumpers, a rear spoiler, gloss black grille, mirror caps, combined with side skirts, roof rails and a 29mm lowered suspension kit. Exclusive 19-inch dual-finish alloy wheels, Matrix LED headlights, and a Sportline signature red grille together complete the look. 

Inside, the Sportline has embossed, faux-leather sports seats with red stitching, a heated leather steering wheel and Sportline-branded floor mats. 

In addition to the Sportline trim level, Volkswagen is also adding a Commerce Pro S. Although not as bling as the Sportline, it has gloss black 17-inch alloy wheels, a body-coloured front splitter, extended rear spoiler and gloss black grille detailing. 

The new Commerce Pro S will be available to order from late February, with first deliveries landing in April. Following this, the Transporter Sportline will open for orders in April, ahead of deliveries beginning in May. Both new specifications of Transporter will be available in diesel, eHybrid and all-electric powertrains.
