With the launch of the Volkswagen T4 Transporter series in August 1990,
the
era of rear-wheel drive and rearengined VW Transporters
finally came to an end. While in the predecessor T1, T2 and T3 series
the engine
was housed in the rear of the vehicle, the completely
redesigned VW T4 now featured a transverse front engine that drove the
front wheels. In particular, this had the considerable
advantage that the VW Transporter, like most of its competitors, now
also
had a lower-lying, continuous load area. This continuous
load area was an extremely important sales argument and was quickly
reflected
in the sales success of the T4. In addition to the
purely commercial version of the Transporter which was mainly used by
business
customers and public agencies, the Multivan and Camping
versions were particularly popular with private individuals. Thanks to
a very
practical and well thought-out interior, these vehicles
offered a considerable degree of comfort on long journeys, were ideal
for
recreational trips and, thanks to the redesigned chassis
and compact exterior dimensions, provided car-like ride comfort. Schuco
is
going to produce in a limited edition of 1.000 pieces a
miniature model of this VW T4b Caravelle to a scale of 1:18. Just like
the other
models of the Schuco Edition 1:18, the VW T4 comes
with many lovingly crafted details, such as opening and closing doors, a
front opening hood and the opening bonnet under which the
highly detailed replica of the engine is accommodated.
