Supporting you and your cargo

We know that driver and cargo safety is your top priority – that’s why the Crafter comes with a suite of onboard assistance and monitoring systems to keep drivers safe and vans on the road.

Safety as standard

Volkswagen vans come with a suite of innovative safety features as standard. Some of these features include Front Assist with City Emergency Braking, Multi-Collision Brake, Crosswind Assist and Front and Rear Park Distance Control as standard. These technologies have been designed to assist you in everyday driving and on the job.

Available as an option, Side Protection alerts you with visual and audible warnings if you’re getting too close to other vehicles, pillars, walls or pedestrians.

Rear Traffic Alert

Available as an option, Rear Traffic Alert helps by emitting an audible warning when reversing out of a parking space if another vehicle is getting too close. If the driver fails to respond, the system intervenes and applies braking to help reduce possibility of a collision.
