Commercial vehicles are the backbone of modern business. Whether for craftsmen, delivery services, or motorhomes – the range of vehicles is as diverse as their applications. However, with this diversity come challenges: Which model best suits your requirements? Which technical specifications and infotainment systems are crucial? And how do the vehicles differ in design and technical kinship? For instance, discerning between models like the Ford Transit Custom and the new VW Transporter—both built on a shared platform, as highlighted in the header image—can pose a particular challenge. Our Spotter’s Guide helps you navigate the jungle of today’s transporters.
