Ready for business

The Crafter’s wide sliding doors allow pallet access and can open to 1,311mm with a load compartment height of up to 2,196mm. It accommodates 4-6 Euro pallets depending on your wheelbase and has rear barn doors that open 180 degrees or an upgraded 270 degrees.

If strength is needed, the heavy-duty Crafter 50 has reinforced suspension, more powerful engines and dual rear wheels with rear-wheel drive to help you haul up to a 2-tonne payload. The Crafter 55 offers even stronger suspension for a maximum payload of up to 3 tonnes.²

Move the way you want

The Crafter has two powerful diesel engines designed specifically for commercial vehicles: the TDI340 with 340Nm torque or TDI410 with 410Nm torque. It also features an optional 8-speed full automatic gearbox with a torque converter that can be combined with all systems. That way, it’s never manual labour for you. This van is available with three drive systems: front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive or 4MOTION all-wheel drive.

Go here, go there, go everywhere

Be a smooth operator in almost any terrain, you have the option to choose 4MOTION and the mechanical differential lock. 4MOTION allocates the engine’s power across all four wheels as needed, preventing wheel spin and locking, while the mechanical differential lock makes starting up in adverse, off-road conditions much easier.

An extra set of eyes

We’ve always been and always will be committed to automotive safety. That’s why the Crafter includes optional intuitive and innovative driver assist features including Adaptive Cruise Control, Active Lane Keep Assist, Sensor-based Side Assist and Rear Traffic Alert⁴.

A clever companion

More than just a spacious loading compartment, you’ll find clever touches integrated in every detail to make transporting cargo or passengers feel effortless. Whether that’s the accessible grab handles and 12V charging sockets as standard or the optional LED roof lighting and Climatic air conditioning, there’s plenty of ways to make your Crafter ready for the way you want to do business.
