Find your fit

Both single and dual cab models of the Crafter are built with a sturdy ladder frame chassis and depending on one of the many variants selected are available in range of wheelbase lengths too. Choose from a medium, high or super high roof and customise to your business needs.

 

Extra impressive

Modular auxiliary units

Enough energy for your job

Some jobs need more than just a top performance from you. Your commercial vehicle needs to step up, too. For this reason, you have the option of having your Crafter Chassis equipped with additional power generators and an air conditioning compressor at the factory. These help to ensure constant temperatures while the vehicle is stationary – and works independently from the air conditioning system.

Playing it safe as standard

Automatic Post-Collision Braking System

Electronic stability control (not illustrated)

Prevents under- or oversteering by targeted braking of individual wheels.

Anti-lock braking system (ABS) (not illustrated)

Stops the wheels from locking. Enabling you to keep control over the vehicle’s steering.

Traction control system (ASR) (not illustrated)

Prevents wheelspin.

Belt fastening warning (not illustrated)

If the driver’s seat belt is not fastened, the seat belt warning system reminds them to fasten it with a visual warning when the engine is started and an audible warning after setting off. 

Driver airbag (not illustrated)

Standard feature that provides the best possible protection in the event of a frontal impact. A side/head airbag is also available as an option.

Actual results may vary depending on various factors such as driving style, road conditions, temperature, weather, vehicle load, and maintenance. Therefore, the WLTP results should be considered as an indicator of the vehicle‘s performance and not as a guarantee of the actual energy consumption, emissions, or range that a driver will experience in real-world driving conditions, or for making a vehicle-to-vehicle comparison. All WLTP test values are provided in accordance with New Zealand Land transport Rule: Vehicle Efficiency and Emissions Data 2022.
