Inovev forecasts 150,000 units per year of the new VW Caddy
- Volkswagen has unveiled the new generation of its compact utility Caddy, which will continue to be marketed as a passenger transport version (under the name of ludospace) or as a light utility vehicle. This vehicle competes with the Renault Kangoo (which will be renewed this summer), Citroën Berlingo, Peugeot Partner, Opel Combo, Fiat Doblo, Mercedes Citan, Ford Transit Courier and Connect.
- Each year, between 140,000 and 160,000 units of the Volkswagen Caddy are sold, half of which are passenger transport versions which serve as a more economical variant of the more expensive Volkswagen Touran. Today, it sells twice as many Caddy as Touran, the latter is expected to disappear without a successor. MPVs are indeed on the way out, while passenger transport derivative versions of the utility vehicles (like the Dacia Dokker) continue to sell well.
- The new Volkswagen Caddy therefore sees its cabin space increasing thanks to a length augmented by 9 cm (4.51 m), a width by 6 cm (1.86 m) and a wheelbase by 7 cm (2.76 m) ). Like the Kangoo, Berlingo and Partner, an extended version (4.86 m) is available.
- The new Caddy uses the MQB platform as the new Golf. Its engines are: 1.0 TSI petrol with 116 hp, 1.4 TGI natural gas with 110 hp and 2.0 TDI diesel with 102 hp and 122 hp. The new Caddy will continue to be produced at the Volkswagen site in Poznan (Poland) at the rate of 150,000 units per year according to Inovev.
