Volkswagen Crafter panel van or Doka: Choose variant according to team and load

Panel vans and Doka in everyday work
The panel van is often the obvious choice for protected cargo. A Doka can be useful if several employees and material are traveling together.
- Van: closed, good for packages, tools, shelving systems and protected cargo.
- Doka: useful for team trips, construction sites and combined use of people and materials.
- High roof and wheelbase: influence loading volume, parking, maneuverability and interior design.
- Body condition: loading areas, edges and doors are particularly important for used vehicles.
The right size saves time in everyday life
A large van should be sized to make everyday life easier. Too many vehicles can be disruptive in tight locations, too few vehicles lead to multiple trips and improvised solutions.
Auto Bluhm can help with the classification if requirements for seating, loading volume, structure and region of use are clearly stated.
