Volkswagen – other commercial vehicles: the collective page outside the named ranges, from the LT through the Crafter to the Amarok, 80 to 190 kW, 1,968 to 2,993 cm³
This page gathers Volkswagen commercial vehicles the register could not assign to a named range: the LT built from 1975 to 2006, its successor the Crafter from 2006, and the pick-up Amarok built from 2010. The first LT was jointly developed with Mercedes-Benz, and the Crafter initially shared engineering with the Mercedes Sprinter before Volkswagen introduced its own platform, built in Poland, from 2017. The second-generation Amarok is developed jointly with Ford as the technical basis for the Ranger.

The register lists here 10 versions with 80 to 190 kW from four- to six-cylinder engines of 1,968 to 2,993 cm³, unladen weights from 2,086 to 3,590 kg, gross weights from 3,510 to 5,600 kg, lengths from 5,191 to 7,350 mm and widths from 1,917 to 2,100 mm.
The span from large box van to pick-up shows Volkswagen's position in the upper van segment, where the LT and Crafter compete directly with the Mercedes Sprinter and Iveco Daily, while the Amarok holds its own in the mid-size pick-up segment against the Toyota Hilux and Ford Ranger.
Buying used, the LT and Crafter need checking for rust on sliding-door tracks and the floor pan and the mileage on the turbodiesel, the Amarok for the condition of the load bed, axles and four-wheel-drive system; parts for the Crafter and Amarok run through the regular Volkswagen commercial-vehicle network, for the LT more limited.
