Volkswagen Multivan T4

1996 – 2003

The Volkswagen Transporter T4, known as the EuroVan in North America, was a van model produced by Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles from 1990 to 2004.

The T4 was introduced in 1990, marking a new era for Volkswagen vans with its front-engine layout. Volkswagen had initially considered transitioning to a front-engine design in the late 1970s but opted to introduce the rear-engined T3 instead. The specific reasons for this decision remain uncertain, leading to a delay in implementing the front-engine configuration until the development of the T4. Key Points: 1.
