New Volkswagen T6 Transporter van revealed - pictures

The sixth-generation VW Transporter has been revealed 65 years after the original Mk1. 

There will be panel van, Shuttle and Caravelle versions avaiable from launch, with a California version coming soon after. 

The interior is more car-like than ever before, with fixtures and fittings lifted straight from VW's passenger cars. 

The 'Generation Six' is a retro-inspired special edition of the T6 Transporter.

Inspired by the original VW bus, the 'Generation Six' sports a two-tone paint scheme, chrome and white wheels and a colour-coded interior. 

Going on sale later this year, the latest model of Transporter is up to 15% more efficienct than before, powered by a range of familiar 2.0-litre diesel powerplants. 

The latest Transporter has received VW's latest design language with sharper creases and light signatures that mirror those of other VW models. 

From the front, the new Transporter has the familiar VW nose, with a full-width grille and integrated headlamps. LED units are available both front and rear.
