The ‘Edition25’ Multivan is based on the current Multivan Comfortline, but offers even more finesse. It will only be available in Candy White paint and ‘Nappa’ leather interior trim in grey and anthracite highlights. More than that, it also gets a matte black roof and black 18-inch alloy wheels. Other features include: black handles on driver and front passenger doors; a black B-pillar; black decal trim on the back of the vehicle and the side sills; and matte black paintwork on the bottom part of the front bumper.

The height-adjustable, ergonomic seats for driver and front passenger and the individually adjustable, sliding rows of seats in the back ensure this sporting Multivan remains as practical as its siblings. The height and angle of the multifunctional leather steering wheel can be adjusted, thus guaranteeing driving comfort for drivers of all heights. The ‘RCD 310’ radio fitted as standard in the special model has a total of eight loudspeakers, plays MP3 files and interfaces with USB and other devices.

Also standard on the ‘Edition25’ Multivan is the Lane Change Assist system which identifies any vehicles in an area critical to the process of changing lane. LED lights in the wing mirrors provide signals to alert the driver to the potential danger. This system, complete with cruise control and ESP, is standard on the ‘Edition25’ model. The model’s feature set also includes an automatic anti-glare rear-view mirror: as soon as the headlights of any following vehicle start to create too much glare, the mirror automatically darkens.

A sports chassis and strengthened anti-roll bar make the special model more agile on the road. The ‘Edition25’ Multivan also features: front fog lamps with cornering lights as standard, daytime running lights, tyre pressure indicator, assisted final-closing (latching) for side and rear doors and rain sensor, making the vehicle comprehensively equipped.

The special ‘Edition25’ model is powered by a 2.0-litre biturbo engine with 132kW at 4000 rpm and 400Nm from just 1500rpm. The claimed diesel consumption is just 8.1L/100km, and the  ‘Edition25’ Multivan with 132 kW TDI engine can be ordered as a front wheel drive version with Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG).

This special edition ‘Edition25’ Multivan is available in Australia from $66,990 (MLP).
