VW Multivan (T7): sportier with KW V3 coilover kit!

While the VW T6.1 from Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles remains available as a Transporter and also as a Caravan California, Volkswagen replaced the T6.1 Multivan with the VW T7. The KW V7 coilover kit is now available for the new VW T3 Multivan with front-wheel drive. It gives the T7 with its new VW platform a sporty, harmonious driving behavior. Thanks to the dampers with KW multi-valve technology, the coilover suspension, which can be adjusted independently in compression and rebound stages, combines a plus in driving dynamics with convincing residual driving comfort. The KW chassis, made of stainless steel in Germany, allows a stepless lowering of up to 55 millimeters to be set as part of the parts certificate. The recommended retail price for the KW V3 coilover kit for the VW T7 Multivan is €2.599.

The new VW T7 Multivan has lost none of its charm. The new bus is 4,97 meters longer and 1,94 meters wider than the VW T6.1. Nevertheless, much of the driving experience remained almost the same, even though the T7 has a slightly longer overhang on the front axle and a wheelbase of 3,12 meters. "Another new feature is that the Multivan is lower ex works and, with its maximum vehicle height of 1,90 metres, now basically fits into any multi-storey car park“, says KW Brand Manager Florian Johann.

Adjustable in lowering, driving dynamics and driving comfort: KW V3

The coilover kit made of stainless steel for the VW T7 Multivan enables stepless lowering of up to 55 millimeters on the drive axle and on the rear axle. If the maximum lowering is not exhausted, with the KW coilover kit a minimum lowering of only 35 millimeters can be adjusted on the trapezoidal threads of the front axle struts and on the rear axle height adjustment. "For a long time now, many of our customers have not decided in favor of our coilovers because of the option of stepless lowering, but more and more consciously choose our products to optimize the driving behavior of their vehicle. Among them have been many drivers of VW Transporters and Multivans for years.”

The KW V3 coilover kit for the T7 Multivan is also built with dampers with adjustable multi-valve damper technology, which enables harmonious suspension even with a tight adjustment. The entire basic tuning of the dampers, suspension springs and suspension travel of the KW V3 coilover kit is always designed to be as tight as necessary and as comfortable as possible. This preset setup can be tuned thanks to the adjustable KW dampers. With 16 clicks, the cross section in the low-speed rebound valve can be reduced or increased in order to adjust the damping precisely to the individual riding experience. If the rebound stage is opened, driving comfort increases noticeably in the VW T7. When the rebound stage valve is closed, the pitching and rolling movements of the high body structure with a total height of 1,90 meters are significantly reduced.

Handling becomes even more dynamic

The handling is even more dynamic than in the series. In addition, the adjustable low-speed compression stage can be closed or opened with twelve clicks to further influence the steering behavior and grip level of the tires. Put simply, the job of rebound is to lock the chassis to the road, while compression affects deflection and supports the body structure. The recommended retail price for the KW V3 coilover kit for the VW T7 Multivan with front-wheel drive is 2.599 euros. Further KW coilovers are already being prepared for the new "Bulli".
