The experts at Senner Tuning in Ingelheim have over three decades of tuning experience, with almost as much experience working with the “Godfather” of all vans – the VW Bus. The latest result of Senner Tuning’s “Vanforming” is the T6 Multivan Bus shown here, which has been comprehensively customized and optimized both aesthetically and technically. For example, Senner Tuning replaced the standard suspension of the bus with KW DDC plug & play coilover suspension, which allows the driver to choose from various settings – such as Comfort, Normal and Sport – at the touch of a button. And to reduce the pronounced sideways tilt and tendency of the bus to understeer, which are caused by the vehicle’s high center of gravity, sport stabilizers were also installed on both axles. The Project 3.0 light alloy wheels from the Ultralight Series by Barracuda Racing Wheels not only greatly improve the look, but also the driving dynamics. These weight-optimized flow formed rims measuring 10.0×20” weigh in at just 12.5 kg each and yet can handle loads of up to 875 kg, which translates into a saving of around 100 lb of unsprung and rotating mass compared with conventional cast rims of the same size. The result is noticeably more agility as well as improved longitudinal and transverse dynamics. On top of that, the filigree rims with their pronounced concavity of around eight centimeters and their highly technical finish in black milled with milled spoke contours magically attract the eye. To finish, they have been fitted with 275/35R20 tires. Senner Tuning increased the power of the 2.0-liter TDI four-cylinder engine from 150 hp and 340 Nm to 197 hp and 445 Nm. In addition to tweaks to the electronics, this power upgrade also included installation of a sports air filter. And to give the diesel engine a satisfying sound along with powerful propulsion, a Maxhaust Active Sound System was also installed, which can be configured according to personal taste via a smartphone app. At first glance, it is obvious that the T6 Multivan is a Senner Tuning project vehicle, with large swathes of designer wrapping in their signature blue covering the candy-white paint. As a fitting complement to the white/blue/black color scheme, the VW emblems on the front and rear were also painted black, along with all chrome parts on the exterior. The load sill protector is also black, while the thermal insulation glazing was given additional tinting. The brake calipers, on the other hand, glow blue behind the black rims. VW Bus connoisseurs, in particular, will love the “Bulli” door emblems. And to cap it all off, even the Recaro Monza Nova child seat sports a matching color combination.
