The fleet presentation has been organized by a consortium of companies, including the Spanish companies Experience Box and Abanico Incentives, in addition to several other event organizers from Germany.
Throughout March, Volkswagen is in Southern Spain to present the upgraded 4Motion capabilities of its commercial "hard working" fleet (Nutzfahrzeuge). The cars being presented are the Caddy, the Amarok Pick-up, the T5 Rockton Transporter that demonstrates increased versatility and polyvalence, and, the star of the event, the amazing Crafter van.
The new 4motion Crafter is an amazing commercial van that now offers an off-road system, developed in collaboration with the well-known Austrian company Achleitner. The van offers a central and back differential lock, with the option of including a front differential lock as well. There is therefore no need to mention the astonishing capabilities of this vehicle impressing even pure 4x4 professionals.
Volkswagen’s new 4motion Crafter
The objective of the event is clear: to show how efficient Volkswagen vehicles are in real and extreme conditions. To achieve this, the brand has opted for a picturesque 4X4 track located in the Andalusia highlands of "Serrania de Ronda" to present the fleet to press and dealers worldwide. Vehicles also include an old-timer transporter and several utility vehicles (fire truck, breakdown trucks, pick-ups from the Dakar rally, etc.), to remind us all that Volkswagen has always been one of the leaders in this very specific market.

The fleet presentation has been organized by a consortium of companies, including the Spanish companies Experience Box and Abanico Incentives, in addition to several other event organizers from Germany. The circuit, located near Gaucin and usually used for extreme 4x4 events, was prepared by the consortium to ensure optimum conditions and security, with the accent on demonstrating the exceptional capabilities of this fleet. The consortium is also handling the event’s general management, including airport transfers, road books, parking solutions, logistics, catering, etc.
A total of around 50 persons are collaborating to ensure the success of this vehicle presentation in Spain. And chance are that this "motor event" will be the first of many for Volkswagen or other commercial vehicles brands looking for an innovative, challenging and unusual way to present their cars to the world.
