Can vans be stylish?

Whether you need a van for work or because you have a large family

Whether you need a van for work or because you have a large family, it’s about how driving a van makes you feel, ammiright? I was stopped on the street by a complete stranger, a mum with three small boys in tow who said, “do you like your van? My husband wants to buy one but I really don’t know.” Because, I mean, it’s a van. Until you have five kids, you don’t absolutely need one, right?

do you like your van? My husband wants to buy one but I really don’t know.

Volkswagon is trying to dispel that theory with their Multivan. It’s cooler, has nicer interiors and they’re drawing on their old Kombi heritage.

There is so much space inside, you can actually step around. The seats swivel around and face the back so you can have the two back rows facing each other. The side doors open automatically with the press of a button on the key – the kids loved this – as does the boot. So no more swinging heavy side doors open and closed.

And even though the car is big and bulky, the Multivan doesn’t feel it while you’re driving. You can plug your phone into the (one) USB port and Apple Carplay/Android Auto will immediately pop up on the multimedia screen. Through that you can navigate via your maps app or listen to music through your music app, plus make calls and send text message using voice control.
