  • Volkswagen reveals sketches of 2020 Caddy

    2020-Volkswagen-Caddy-910New sketches of the VW Commercial Vehicles design give a glimpse of the all-new Caddy that would be unveiled in 2020: the images showcase a completely revised machine with no screw left untouched.

    These initial sketches from the early development indicate that numerous aspects of the vehicle are going to be different, compared to predecessor models. The concept drawing of the panel van variant of the Caddy underline the idea that a new self-confidence will be entering the otherwise functional and practical vehicle class. The draft reveals possible configurations: everything is different, but still with a high cargo capacity and great variability, which are the key ingredients for attracting lineup’s customers.

    An example of a sportier style is indicated, for instance, by sloping the roof line, along with the sculpturally shaped and large side areas. We do assume that in future more customers involved in sport and active leisure pursuits will consider the new Caddy as a handy alternative.

    The pictures depict the new Cargo version with several striking pointers to the actual full production panel van. These include mode strongly vertically arranged and slim LED lights at the rear, along with a larger looking rear window, a significant element of vehicle’s appearance. In line with customer wishes, the commercially used version of the new Caddy will also have a non-transparent tailgate and continue to offer swing doors as an optional feature.

  • Volkswagen Caddy Black Edition to be out soon

    VW-Caddy-Black-Edition_thumbVW-Caddy-Black-Edition_651

    The list of Volkswagen Caddy commercial vehicles will grow soon with the introduction of a new special model that is known as Caddy Black Edition. The new vehicle is based on the popular Highline specification but comes with GBP 2,150 worth of additional equipment and customer savings of GBP 1,350. In addition to that this will be the first Volkswagen commercial vehicle to be offered in the prestigious Black Edition form and will have premium specs that will make it the most luxurious Caddy ever built.

    The new Caddy comes with a ton of features – body-coloured bumpers, mirrors and door handles, fog lights, rear parking sensors, climatic air conditioning, cruise control, Bluetooth phone connectivity with trip computer and multi-function display as well as Deep Black Pearlescent paint, unique black and polished 17-inch alloy wheels and silver roof rails and radiator grille surround.  As if this is not enough, drivers also benefit from a multi-functional steering wheel, leather gear knob and gaiter, heated wing mirrors and electric windows as standard.

    When it comes to engines, the new Caddy offers a 1.6-liter TDI common rail direct injection engine that delivers 102 horsepower (75 kW) and 250 Nm (184 lb-ft) of torque. The vehicle also has a 5-speed manual transmission. Thanks to the employed BlueMotion Technology the vehicle includes hill-hold assist, energy recuperation and start/stop cycles, which means you will be able to enjoy fuel economy of 55.4 UK mpg (5.1 liters per 100 km) combined and CO2 emissions of just 134 g/km.

    The Caddy Black Edition has more than luxury, though. As we know the car is built for work and this is why the new model comes with internal volume of 3.2 cubic meters, which makes it one of the most spacious vans in the entire sector. In addition to that the included Dynamic Suspension reduces the ride height by 27 mm. Inside the seats are trimmed in leather and Alcantara while the cabin is separated from the load cube by a full-height solid bulkhead.

    In Europe the VW Caddy Black Edition will be on the market on October 1 this year where you will be able to purchase it for GBP 17,860 (no VAT included).

  • MR Car Design Volkswagen Caddy

    Need more stance! Obviously the Volkswagen Caddy is not the best eye-catcher in its factory version. That’s why, the company MR Car Design from Erftstadt has virtually transformed the high roof combi into something unique and low… very low!

    The tuned Caddy is fitted with air suspension on the front and rear axle, which can be adjusted either remotely or automatically. Each axle can be height adjusted separately, so if you want you can lower only the front end or the rear one. The result is really impressive and the Caddy III has unique stance.

    In addition, this version is made for craftsmen with extreme load because of the leveling. To get the Caddy a little from the truck corner, the Erftstadt have sensibly used Rotiform-alloy wheels in dimensions 8.5J x 19” fitted with 225/35 R19 tires.

    This Caddy associated with the current VW face since a facelift for summer 2010 – at least as it now stands in front of the inclined viewer thanks to MR Car Design – wants more, especially because a number of engine variants is available , depending on the intended replacement option.
