Volkswagen has bolstered its local Kombi range with a more powerful 132 kW Trendline Plus derivative. See specification and pricing below…

The Volkswagen Kombi does steady business in South Africa with almost 5 000 units sold since the sixth-generation Kombi came to market in 2015.

The range-topping 132 kW / 400 Nm 2.0-litre bi-turbocharged diesel engine was previously only offered in Comfortline guise but it can now be had in Trendline Plus guise, at a more affordable price. This engine is mated to a 7-speed DSG transmission.
