Volkswagen eT!

Most experts agree that the future of urban mobility goes through electric propulsion. In this sense, Volkswagen has taken a step further by developing the eT !, a delivery vehicle designed in collaboration with the German Post Office and the Brunswick University of Art, and a true showcase for new technologies.

Volkswagen engines, not only for cars

Since the 1950s, Volkswagen has been commercializing mechanics derived from the engines of its street cars for industrial use. Forklifts and generators around the world also have a "heart" designed in Wolfsburg.

The Barndoor

Developed at the end of the 1940s, the Transporter was the second model produced by Volkswagen as its own brand, after the Vocho. The first versions, nicknamed Barndoor by the fans, supposed the consolidation of a vehicle that would become mythical.

Sign me up. How do we in the US get our hands on one of these? The Altaya website says you must be a resident of France to subscribe. Ideas?

I’ll gladly pay in installments to get one of these.

Dann Tellez my Samba is 1/12 scale and I can remove the lug nuts too so not a lot smaller but yours is crazy big. I don't recall if mine was $200. but it rings a bell, what will yours eventually cost or did I miss the memo?

[Dann Tellez]

Yes I know, it’s massive, I can tell by the wheel’s size it covers all my hand. Price will be around 1500 dlls. Which sounds like a lot but now I have the chance to see and feel the parts I know totally worths it. The only thing I dislike is I will have to wait almost a year and a half to get all the pieces together.

Dann Tellez, why does it take so long?

Total traction: the T3 Syncro

In 1985 a new version of the T3 appeared, the Syncro, that was endowed with traction to the four wheels. This model, with technology from the Austrian manufacturer Puch, would be revealed as an authentic off-road vehicle.

The T1: cultural icon

The Transporter T1, as its elder brother the bug did, has transcended the motor world and has become a reference of popular culture. The roots of this phenomenon are found mainly in the countercultural movements of the 1960s.

The T2 Westfalia

The collaboration between the company Westfalia and Volkswagen had already given great results with the T1, so it was not surprising that, when the second generation of the Transporter, the T2, was presented, its camp versions followed a continuation model that was an authentic Sales success throughout the world.

Evolution of T1 (1955-1959)

The Transporter reached its fifth year of production with reforms in many aspects, which made it more practical, useful and versatile. Thus, the foundations of an authentic legend that would consolidate during the following decade were already established.

The Volkswagen LT

The Transporter's older sister, the LT, arrived in the mid-1970s. With a front engine, rear-wheel drive and suspension by crossbows, it was a radical change of concept. Its load capacity and versatility were its hallmarks.
