Volkswagen – other models: the collective page of the LT and Crafter, from the Hanover-built Lastentransporter to the Polish plant in Września, 51 to 177 kW, four- to eight-cylinders of 2.0 to 6.9 litres
This page gathers the Volkswagen commercial vehicles the register could not assign to a named range – chiefly the LT (Lastentransporter), which VW built from 1975 at its Hanover plant, and its successor the Crafter, which VW made first jointly with Mercedes-Benz and, since 2016, to its own design at the Polish plant in Września; plus a few examples of the Amarok pickup. Type codes such as LT35D or LT40D give the payload class (35, 40) and diesel drive (D), suffixes such as Kasten, Doppelkabine or Pritsche the body style; on the Crafter, number codes such as 2EH1B5 denote internal production variants whose exact meaning cannot be read from the register.

The register lists here 103 versions with 51 to 177 kW from four- to eight-cylinders of 1,968 to 6,871 cm³, unladen weights from 1,840 to 6,920 kg, lengths from 4,840 to 8,180 mm and widths from 1,917 to 2,550 mm; gross weights from 3,280 to 7,490 kg are recorded for 94 models.
The LT and Crafter formed the upper end of VW's commercial-vehicle range for decades, above the Transporter and Caddy, aimed at trades, emergency services and motorhome converters; the Crafter still shares its technical base with the MAN TGE today, since both brands belong to the Volkswagen Group.
On the LT, what counts is rust condition on wings, sills and load floor; on the Crafter, operating hours, the condition of the turbocharger and exhaust aftertreatment; and on motorhome conversions, the condition of the body; spare parts run through the VW commercial-vehicle network.
