Thread: What is on your T6 wishlist?

    What is on your T6 wishlist?

    What features/options would you like to see on the T6 when it is available?

    I would like more power, say 150kw+. As a minimum, the current 132kw.
    I am more than happy with the DSG at the moment, so at this stage I'd want DSG.
    I'd like a better/cheaper bluetooth handsfree option. The dealer prices for the RNS510 are ridiculous. Also, have it so it is iPhone compatible with text messages etc.
    I like the new Ford Transit roof rack option where they fold flat when not in use.
    I'd like a more comfortable 2 seat bench seat in the front. The current VW 2 seater is very uncomfortable.
    Arm rests, IMO, should be standard.
    Rear camera should be standard with the RNS510 IMO.
    I'd also order the twin sliding doors and rear wing doors.

    As the above +
    the RVC should be standard regardless of the radio you choose, but also the options to select front cam and maybe the side cams fitted in the mirrors with the additional screens fitted at the end of the dashboard

    the engine - at least bring back the 5 cyl. if the VW is unable to put the V6 in
    on 4Motion - difflocks, front, rear and the centre, raised off road suspension with better approach and departure angle and of course better underbody protection and I don't mean the plasic trays. Dual battery preparation as standard on 4Motion (so, you can just install the second battery)

    automaticaly foldable mirrors when you park.

    Factory options:
    Bull bar
    Side bar
    IR night vision
    Rear metal bumper bar
    100+L fuel tank

    ......also, map updates for the RNS510, should be for free during the 3 year warranty period......but then again, it takes VW 3 years to do an update.

    Or they should make the unit to accept the third party maps.

    I don't think I be in the market for a new T6 for a couple of years but on the head unit with the GPS you are mentioning how are the maps loaded ? is it a DVD ROM disk or a SD card or is it loaded at the factory direct .

    Better fuel consumption, so a smaller fuel tank (900 - 1000 ks is fine per tank)
    Lighter van, say under 2 ton
    Sat nav as standard, and yes affordable updatable maps each year
    And to me, most importantly, a work van that will manage at least 400,000 ks without costly repairs
    My first two T4's did this and more, I thought they were brilliant
    This current T5 has cost me around $15,000 in additional mechanical repairs up to 270,000 ks, so I'll be seriously looking at other brands next time

    RVC should be standard in a vehicle this size.
    An option for barn doors in the multi would be nice.

    I like the idea of better phone integration and fold up roof racks.

    For a people carrier the 103kW is alright although I'm looking at more power next time around. If you have a load I can see the extra power being very important.

    Significantly reduced price disparity between DC Transporters and Amaroks...in both 2WD and AWD. Basic dual cab chassis Rok can be had around $40K but the same Transporter is skyward of $50K

    Other than that...the T5.2 that I'd be interested in has virtually the same bling features as the one I have now. So I can't imagine that this'd change in the T6.

    Regardless...couldn't afford a T5 and I don't expect the situation to change in the 6. Cheaper to invest in the 4...
