New Volkswagen Caddy prices

Highline

Range-topping Highline is priced  from £16,650,and  gains the following in addition to Trendline:

• alloy wheels,
• front fog lights and daytime running lights,
• Climatic air conditioning,
• heated front windscreen,
• automatic dimming rear-view mirror,
• a Thatcham category 1 alarm and
• windscreen wipers with intermittent control and rain sensor.

At launch, the Caddy will be offered with a range of three 2.0-litre EU5 diesel engines, ranging in power output from 75 through 102 to 150 PS.  An EU6 compliant 2.0-litre unit with 102 PS will be available from launch.

All models come with a five- or six-speed manual gearbox, with customers of the higher-powered versions also able to opt for a DSG automatic gearbox (with six- or seven-speeds depending on engine power output).

All Caddy models can be specified as ‘BMT’, meaning BlueMotion Technology modifications (start/stop system and battery regeneration) are fitted to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.  A standalone BlueMotion variant also joins the range: with a 2.0-litre EU6 102 PS engine and five-speed manual gearbox it can return 65.7 mpg and CO2 emissions of 114 g/km.

The New Caddy also sets a new benchmark in the class for its array of safety and convenience systems.  Park Assist and a rear-view reversing camera, as well as High Beam Assist and Driver Alert systems, all help to enhance safety and reduce damage to vehicles, are available as options.

Customers will also be able to specify Adaptive Cruise Control with Front Assist and City Emergency Braking.  This system monitors the space to the vehicle ahead and maintains a specified speed and distance to ensure safe stopping.  This technology has been used in Volkswagen Passenger Cars and is proven to reduce third party injury claims by 45 per cent.

In the cabin, the Caddy feels comfortable yet robust, and boasts new upholstery and switchgear, as well as enhanced stereo and infotainment systems.  The standard five-inch touchscreen Colour Composition radio can be upgraded to Composition Media, or the Discover Navigation system.
Naturally Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles will boost the Caddy range in July with the addition of passenger-carrying models.  Pricing and details for these will be announced in July ahead of deliveries in September.
