The Volkswagen Multivan sits in a category that defies easy description. It is a van. It is also a people carrier, a camper-ready hauler, a premium family transport, and, in some trim levels, a conversation piece at the kind of events where people notice what you drove there. The 2015 model is the T5 generation in its final years, running a turbocharged diesel and a DSG that Volkswagen has spent years refining.

Jenny reviews the Multivan and covers what the premium price buys in Australia: the interior flexibility that comes from removable, repositionable seats, the sliding door practicality that two adults with full hands appreciate more than they expected, and the driving experience of a large van that does not feel like a penalty for choosing something practical. The Multivan competes with nothing that costs the same money. It competes with the mindset that a van is a step down.

The Multivan is for the buyer who needs genuine space, is prepared to spend the money that the VW badge and the build quality require, and has made peace with the fact that they are buying a van. If that last part is still unresolved, the Multivan will not resolve it. The full review is on the CarTell.tv YouTube channel above.
