Every Type 2 is a Transporter, from 1949 to 2002 and counting. This
includes all "Vanagons", whether or not that were sold as
Transporters or Type 2s in USA. They are just that. The "Vanagon" is
a Tpe 2 and a Transporter. Period.

This is what T1-T5 means... the T stands for Transporter.
T1=Split
T2=Bay
T3="Vanagon"
T4="Eurovan"
T5=UGLEE
