Offered in three trim levels, this hulky minivan is based on the Grand Caravan/Town & Country sold by Chrysler. However, Volkswagen did invest some energy revising the design and parts of the suspension to make its handling more . . . German. A single drivetrain is available, comprising a 4.0-litre V6 that delivers 251 hp and a six-speed automatic transmission. This vehicle offers decent fuel economy for highway driving.
