New Year, New Van: Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles Extends Scrappage Scheme For 2018

•Encourages scrappage of older diesel vehicles against purchase of latest Euro 6 models

•Incentives of up to £2,000, on top of existing retail offers, according to model, available to new petrol and diesel vans

•Vehicles traded in will be scrapped rather than sold on

•Offers available to owners of pre-Euro 5 diesel vehicles registered before 2010

There's good news for businesses looking to freshen up their company transport in 2018: Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles has extended the scrappage scheme launched in September 2017 to encourage the exchange of latest generation, lower-emission new vehicles, in tandem with the removal of older, Euro 1-41 emissions standards vehicles from the UK.

Owners of diesel vehicles that comply with pre-Euro 5 emissions legislation qualify for the Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles scrappage scheme2. They can trade-in their vehicles and benefit from incentives – ranging from £1,000 to £2,000 – against the majority of new Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles vans (see table below) that are ordered by 31 March 2018 and registered before 30 June 2018. The trade-in vehicle needs to have been owned by the customer for at least six months.

All new Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles petrol and diesel models meet the latest Euro 6 emissions standards, currently the most stringent yet.

The offer runs in conjunction with other attractive new year offers for businesses looking for a fresh new van for 2018. For example, combine the £2,000 scrappage scheme incentive on any Caddy with the current retail offer and there's a saving of up to £3,500.
