About Volkswagen Caddy
The Volkswagen Caddy is a small van manufactured by the German marque Volkswagen. This vehicle began to be produced in 1980. There have been 4 generations of the VW Caddy to date.
The first generation of the Volkswagen Caddy was marketed between 1980 and 1995. It was pick-up aimed at the US market. It was known as the ‘Volkswagen Rabbit Pick Up‘. The design was derived from the Volkswagen Golf Mk1.
Starting in 1996, VAG began to manufacture the second generation of the Volkswagen Caddy. However, two completely different models were sold. The Caddy Typ 9U variant was based on the development of the Skoda Felicia and was a pickup. On the other hand, the generation is complemented by the Typ 9K variant, based on the Seat Inca, which in turn was based on the Seat Ibiza 6K, mounted on the Volkswagen Group A4 platform.
The third generation of this van has been the longest-lived, lasting from 2003 to 2021. This model has been marketed in different variants. There are Passenger (Caddy Life) and Cargo (Kombi and Panel Van) models. It could also be purchased in Short or Long wheelbase (Caddy Maxi).
The fourth and current generation of the Volkswagen Caddy was introduced in 2020. It is based on VAG’s MQB platform. It is also sold in Cargo and Life variants, as well as in Long Wheelbase (Maxi). This model has also been sold under the name of Ford Tourneo Connect.
