HANOVER, Germany (January 30 2025) – The Bremen Classic Motorshow opens its doors on 31 January, marking the start of the 2025 classic vehicle season. Volkswagen Commercial Oldtimer vehicle division will travel to Bremen on Germany’s still wintry roads with some all-wheel drive treasures that are perfectly suited to the weather: a freshly restored T3 syncro 16” flatbed truck – only 60 units of which were ever built – and a record-breaking T4 Multivan syncro. There’s a good reason for this: Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles is celebrating ’40 years of the all-wheel drive’ in 2025. The motto: “Where we’re going, we don’t need roads.” There is no doubt that the T3 and T4 syncro, as well as the later T5 and T6 4MOTION, have made a significant contribution to the fact that the VW van has become an icon for globetrotters, tradespeople and campers who often have to drive their vehicles on unpaved terrain. In Bremen, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles is now looking back on 40 years of all-wheel drive and, at the same time, looking to the future. This is because the seventh generation of the Bulli – the Multivan, California, Transporter, Caravelle and ID. Buzz – is also available with all-wheel drive. Continue reading
