With some funky new colours and Euro 5 specification engines and extra special Bi Turbo tdi 180 bhp engine as a top of the range they look quite good. You need to check models for towing as the unbraked and braked trailer weight varies with power output of the engine only slightly but it’s a change on previous models.
The new dsg 7 speed auto and 4motion (in auto too) looks good with options for off roading and of course the options for integral bins, beds and seat options are even better. I have done a rough translation from German (well a web site did).
2.0-liter Petrol, 85 kW (115 hp)
The 4-cylinder PETROL engine in the Caravelle provides 85 kW (115 hp) and thus produces a maximum torque of 170 Nm. He is a 5-speed manual transmission available, and an alternative to diesel engines.

The entry-level engine of the diesel engine draws power from a displacement of two liters. Thanks to TDI technology frees up that engine with maximum torque of 220 Nm. As with all other TDI engines have been CO2Emissions and fuel consumption optimized opposite the previous engines - and this with a relevant increase in power output. The engine is available with a 5-speed manual transmission.
2.0-liter TDI, 75 kW (102 hp)
Even more power for the same engine capacity develops, the second of four TDI engines. Here, too, could
Consumption and CO2Opposite the existing emissions units will be significantly reduced and the power output while also significantly increased. The Kraftübertragung is über for this engine, a 5-speed manual transmission.

Thanks to a rich output of 103 kW (140 hp) you will be with this engine variant long motorway journeys perceive as pleasure.

With this motor are available as a 6-speed manual transmission and a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox (DSG) to choose from. In addition, for this engine, the dual-clutch gearbox (DSG) in conjunction with 4MOTION available.
Fuel consumption / CO2Emissions.
The values were determined according to the prescribed methods of measurement (EC Regulation 715/2007 in the currently applicable version). The figures do not relate to an individual vehicle and are not part of the offer, but solely for purposes of comparison between different vehicle types.
The fuel consumption and CO2Emissions of a vehicle depends not only on the fuel efficiency of a car, but are also influenced by driving style and other non-technical factors. CO2 für global warming is the main greenhouse gas responsible.
Accordance with Directive 1999/94/EC:
Information on official fuel consumption and official specific CO2Emissions of new cars in the "Guidelines via the fuel consumption and CO2Be taken from emissions from new passenger cars ", which is at all sales in the DAT German Automobil Treuhand GmbH, Hellmuth-Hirth-Straße 1, D-73760 Ostfildern, available free of charge.
