Description
The original of all today's vans and transporters comes from the platform truck that was used for internal transport at the Volkswagen plant in Wolfsburg at the end of the 1940s. It inspired the Dutch importer Ben Pon with the idea of a transport vehicle. At the end of the 1940s, VW developed several prototypes for a spacious vehicle that was suitable for transportation purposes. Since none of the names they were thinking of were available for unrestricted use, the new vehicle class was given the name Transporter.
From March 8, 1950, the first generation of the van went into production. The truck, with its typical V-shaped front and split windshield, was available in different versions, including a minibus. The technology was based on the Volkswagen Type 1, the so-called Beetle, so the T1 had an air-cooled 4-cylinder horizontal engine. This reliable rear engine had a capacity of 1.2 litres, which was increased to 34 hp in 1961. The deluxe version of the minibus, the special nine-seater model, is still known as the Samba bus and with its oval roof windows, seats, a folding roof and a lot of chrome parts have a distinctive automotive charm.
