Volkswagen Caddy 1.6 TDI 75PS Van
Volkswagen has a reputation of making well-built and reliable vehicles and the small to mid-size Caddy is no exception. If you’re looking for an all-rounder van that provides respectable load capacity and a comfortable drive, the Caddy is the answer.
The VW Caddy handles via a 5-speed manual gearbox and offers impressive handling and control. And while the 75PS might lack the horsepower of the 102 PS version, is also provides slightly improved fuel consumption and runs at 49.6 miles per gallon. The lower overall costs will likely attract many who don’t require that extra bit of power and want to save some money.
The VW Caddy also helps cut back on on-road costs thanks to the BlueMotion Technology at work in its engine; complying with the Euro V rating of emissions, the Caddy qualifies for the lowest level of LGV tax as well as avoiding the charges from the London Low Emission Zone. The Caddy also lands between the 5E and 6E insurance groups.
In capacity terms, the Caddy 75 PS matches the more powerful 102 PS model exactly, so less heft under the bonnet doesn’t mean less size in the back. This VW Caddy is a solid small-size van with a payload that lands it at the top of its class. The load volume hits 3.2m3 (with maximum load size at 1.3m x 1.8m x 1.6m) and the payload is an impressive 700kg. If you’re looking for a small-size 2-seater van capable of carrying heavier cargo, then the Caddy is best in class.
On the outside, the VW Caddy remains a sleek, stylish van, with none of the bulkiness of the larger VW models. And on the inside, the Caddy is class-leading; Volkswagen remains a dominating force in build-quality and driver comfort. For entertainment, an MP3 compatible CD player and an auxiliary audio input means you’ll never run out of music. And if you want a navigation support, a touch-screen sat nav is available as a quick-and-easy extra.
