Volkswagen has made the difference between the Bus for professionals and the leisure Bus since the beginning of this model.
The Bus for freight transport has been designed with great sobriety. While the competition had many accessories as standard, Volkswagen offered them as an option or sometimes they were not even available at all.
The Bus for passenger transport, on the other hand, was very luxuriously equipped for its time and could reasonably compete in the market back in the day. To facilitate access to the rear seat, the first seat in the middle seat has a foldable backrest. As an additional comfort, this seat is equipped with handles in the most luxurious versions to reach out to rear seat passengers when the driver turns too sharply and as an additional support for people with walking difficulties.
For the Split Bus, the handles are available in sets for the complete handrail for the fixed bench and folding part and are supplied with finishing caps in aluminium or plastic.
