Volkswagen Caddy Maxi ...

Volkswagen Caddy Maxi 1.6 TDI DSG: Php 1,350,000
Volkswagen Caddy Maxi 2.0 TDI DSG: Php 1,550,000

This would be a good alternative to the Toyota Innova ... that 1.6 diesel engine would be really frugal ... but then there's the quirky exterior design, resale value, parts availability, dealer network ...

Yep, this is really targeted at the Innova. It is based on the Golf platform so it will not be as wide as the Innova. Those sliding doors will be quite useful. The 1.6L TDI engine is shared with the Jetta 1.6L TDI so doing 10 km/L for city driving and 17 km/L highway is achievable.

How is the legroom?

I don't think Innova ang target nyan. para sa punerarya yan.
Kung ito naman wag na magtanong about leg room

Looks good. Ground clearance looks to be in the 170 cm. range.

But how durable is that DSG transmission...

The new crop of VW vehicles are yet to prove its reliability in the local and harsher traffic conditions. VW has been using DSG trannies across its model lineup worldwide, same applies to their other brands like Audi, Seat, and Skoda. Porsche, another VW company, uses a different type of dual clutch tranny (PDK) for their lineup.

As per the advice to us, VW only requires an annual PMS (oil change, fluid check, etc.) or 15k KM whichever comes first for their cars. I have to check though when in the life of the car will the DSG be checked and when its fluid needs to be changed.

Also saw the Caddy during the last car show. Could be a good alternative as a people carrier here in the PH. Again though, trim level versus price (not to mention power to displacement ratio) I think is keeping Filipinos from considering it. Waiting for the new figures, especially for the Tiguan
