It may not be as widely known, but the history of the VW Caddy is every bit as colourful as other Volkswagen models. Now over 40 years old, the VW Caddy even underwent a name change as it evolved. The model was originally called the “Rabbit” and grew from bakkie to all-rounder throughout generations. The VW Caddy has, to date, sold millions of units worldwide, and shared in the success that is normally bestowed upon its sibling, the famous VW Kombi.
Volkswagen has gradually introduced different families under the Caddy umbrella, each with its distinct appeal. The VW Caddy Cargo is one of those derivatives. Whilst this article will observe the latest upgrades that VW has given this range, nothing can distract from its unique selling proposition: versatility. The VW Caddy Cargo can navigate between family run-around and company van with ease.
The latest range is available in 3 different variants:
Volkswagen has made great choices with the innovation that the VW Caddy Cargo comes equipped with. Every upgrade enhances the practical uses that the vehicle will no doubt be put to. Oftentimes tech can feel cumbersome on a workhorse, but VW has kept it uncomplicated.
Space has been maximized, as has the vehicle’s payload capacity. It can transport up to 718kg. Consumers can find expanded storage space in the carbon and 6 lashing rings for business purposes. The side sliding doors and rear wing doors are easy to operate and convenient, as are the side mirrors. The assembly of the Caddy Cargo’s lights underline VW’s commitment to safety. All models are equipped with daytime running lights and dynamic halogen headlights.
Let’s explore some of the qualities that make this model unique.
The VW Caddy Cargo is built for practicality. This does not mean that there are limitations when it comes to the innovation it comes equipped with. The infotainment system is an attractive addition and does not look out of place in the workhorse. The optional app-connect functionality makes complete sense in the Caddy Cargo. Connecting your smartphone to the Caddy allows you to conduct your business with ease.
Plenty of vehicles now come standard with driver-assist technologies. The VW Caddy Cargo has an edge over its competitors, however. Additions such as the E-brake are designed to help motorists park their vehicles hassle-free. The inclusion of Auto-hold is useful in that it ensures that the car does not roll back on an incline.
This range of Caddy Cargo is wonderfully unique in the range of colours available. Consumers need not choose between a plaid grey or plain white anymore. Options include Costa Azul and Paprika Red, inserting personality into the range.
Volkswagen has ensured that the Caddy Cargo range has been priced competitively. Have a look at the recommended retail price below:
