The new all-electric Shuttle variant (pictured above) is positioned as a practical solution for family or professional passenger transport needs. Also available in short or long wheelbase versions, it offers eight seats as standard, with the option for a ninth, and a WLTP electric range of up to 194 miles.
Prices for the Transporter Kombi start from £53,404, while the Shuttle Life is available from £56,129, with finance options from £449 per month.
Both models join the existing BEV Panel Van variant in the new Transporter line-up, alongside recently launched TDI versions. The Kombi Commerce Plus SWB 136PS Electric is available on a Solutions Personal Contract Plan from £449 per month, while the Shuttle Life SWB 136PS Electric starts at £589 per month, with both offers including a £2,500 deposit contribution from Volkswagen Financial Services.

The Shuttle Life BEV adds a heat pump, electromechanical brake booster, and Mode 3 charging cable as standard.
The manufacturer emphasises that both BEV variants are covered by Volkswagen’s 5+ Promise, comprising three services, three MOTs, five years’ warranty, and five years’ roadside assistance at no extra cost.
