I bought second-hand an older VW Caddy built in 2010 with the 1.9L TDi engine. Use it for my handyman business, and it has been an absolutely fantastic little van. It has made me think quite seriously that when I get around to having a family, I will get the passenger version which will be much better for carrying prams, shopping, etc.
we have the 1.6 TDI 2012 Maxi, 7 seat version here in Taiwan. we absolutely love it. nimble as a mountain goat on our windy, narrow mountain roads, it has a great deal of cargo/passenger space, and yet is narrow enough for our single-lane roads, as well as not too high for our underground parking lots. "versatile" doesn't adequately describe how useful this vehicle is. I never tire of driving it!
Thank you for the fantastic review. You have a wonderful sense of humour while being professional and informative :) You have sold me on the new Caddy. Dankeschön
+PdrTools.com thanks, appreciated!
Hello thank you for the film and demonstration. I have a 2015 VW CADDY called the "Sirus I Can". It is adapted so I can drive from my wheelchair.
Best review of caddy i have seen. I watched a Passat guide also that was very good, turns out it was also from you guys :) Very good videos!
We have two kids, two dogs and usually a lot of stuff to carry, so we got the Maxi, 7 seater, Highline trim with the 150hp diesel...I love every bit of it.
+spack mc spack I can imagine that :)
Thank you for such a great detailed report and in English too, I appreciate it :)
+Ronnie Duignan thanks for the support !
Thank you for doing it in english!
Roberto Vigo appreciated!
im in love with this car! nice review!
RR redaxis thanks!!
excellent review keep going..
zak anatolyevich appreciated m8
Great review, with lots of very useful information that other reviewers don't address. I'm trying to get a secndhand 2017-2020 SWB life model. In very short supply in the UK it seems.
U re welcome!
Does anybody know if you can buy the foldable matras separately? The one that comes with the Beach version (28:00). It seems to just click into place and it seems to fit normal versions as well?
Great review!
thanks! Also take a first look at the new caddy generation: th-cam.com/video/HB8Z0BnSHgc/w-d-xo.html
i like the first one . a good combination for people and cargo versatility. i have a 1990 Plymouth Voyager and the Caddy is the closest one i have seen yet . the all around equal usability is just like what i have now . i also like that it is a vw . the body styling is well setup for the purposes it will cover to the look ,just like what i have now . looks like one i would want in my driveway in the future .
I also laughed when you could put a melon on your head for the headroom test! Loved that 😂
+Tiago Farias :)
The split rear door is for loading vans via forklift. Unfortunately these do not come with the reversing camera option. Thanks for the great review!
+Richard Goth 👍👍
Hello thanks for the review, nice.
I have a question, there enough room in the normal version(not the maxi) to put a materass behind ?
Thanks! Hm, maybe you can see that here: th-cam.com/video/KitBSmmmq4k/w-d-xo.html
Not sure if you put out all the seats or smth..
Thanks a lot for this review. Enjoyed very much. I'm looking for a vehicle for a one-year-road-trip through Europe with my girlfriend and son (toddler). We will be pulling a caravan and need sufficient luggage-space. I first thought the maxi would be best, but then I saw this video and maybe the normal version would be sufficient when we take out the duo-seat in the back. What are your thoughts on our needs for this trip? Is it comfortable enough? Is it spacious enough? ... And what engine would you recommend for pulling a caravan?
+Giorgo De Groof thanks! Very interesting project! I am really interested in that one. Indeed already the normal version offers plenty of space for 2-3 people. I would go for the Maxi with 2 kids, but for 1 kid that should be enough if you take the normal version. For caravan pulling I would go for one of the bigger Diesels! When do you want to do this trip ?
I'm waiting for one.
Very good review. I chose the Maxi Mobility with access for a wheelchair while maintaining the other 5 seats. Only possible with de Maxi vertion.
thanks, keep recommending us =)
i want one right now
You even manage to make a video about a car such as this interesting and entertaining. It is good you mention those doors. Volkswagen have a thing with the door quality and have don for years. You should maybe mention about the forged steel hinges that literally no one else uses and the laser seam welding on the roof, all adds to that solid chunk. Even the new Mercedes doors feel and sound horrible really.
Oliver Newell good point!
Here in Mexico we only have the maxi with a 110hp petrol non turbo manual. Do you think it would have enough power ? also what is the ground clearance ?.New it costs $16 k at summer 2017.its a bargain.
would be enough power when you dont drive fully loaded.

Thankyou Thomas, very useful review.
My wife and I are looking for a vehicle that we can easily transport 2 full size road bicycles (2 metres in length, and 1.2m tall) in side-by-side, and are considering one of the Maxi versions. We intend to keep this car for a long time, so would like a good standard of finish in the cab. Although we do occasionally take a third or fourth passenger, this is not the top priority. The Maxi Life may be the answer, although the third set of seats are totally unnecessary for us. Also, we live in London, so would definitely prefer petrol driven. Any advice?
Derek.
Sounds good Derek! Its a good solution for inbound bike transport
Thanks Thomas!
You guys in Europe get all the neat vehicles.
My wife would love the commercial version for all her antiques purchases ;)
The maxi looks much better (exterior) don't you think?
Can you tell us where this is manufactured? Just curious.
Ciao!
Mario Dalla Riva Hey, thanks for the feedback. Thats in Poznan, Poland!
The maxi version does not seem to add to the 2nd row legroom. At least that was my impression when i tried it. If this had electric sliding doors it would be a killer for me.
This would definitely sell well here in North America.
MrCarGuy20 I hope Volkswagen realizes one day that they shouldnt change the model policy that much for US but just offer the cars that are av here
VW should sell this van in North America. It would be a great Uber or Lift Vehicle. Small, compact, easy to get in and out of, and of course its a VW so it will drive nice. Americans would love to be able to buy the Full VW line.
For the private use i would prefer the classic Hatchback/Liftgate/Rearflap Door, because u can stand under it in the rain, maybe good while camping.
For working use i would choose the split doors, because u can only with splitdoors load/unload the caddy with a forklift and an euro-pallet will fit in it... great car! :-)
DJ Taip Good point!
Really cool review... reviews. Beach is my favourite version.
marsiya thanks!
I think I am in love with you Thomas Majchrzak
+Gina Nero heh thanks I m flattered ;)
is it possible With keyless on the Caddy?
+Stian Jorge Jarnæss Did not find any hint on that in the price list
Tanx ☺
+Stian Jorge Jarnæss you might wanna see our new caddy alltrack review: th-cam.com/video/KitBSmmmq4k/w-d-xo.html
Looks ok , but nice Review ;)
Pyro Heart thanks!
turkish subtitles please .Good video.
feel free to help with that!
thanks!
Nice van. Not available in the US too bad.
VW take my money for the “Beach” model!. I am still have my 1987 Vanagon GL Wolfsburg Weekender and have never found a suitable replacement.
Definitely the maxi
I do think it will win a design price. Found the comment strange anyway - compare to other Hochdach Kombies like from Renault or Mercedes for example is the design smooth and smart.
I do know that some car designer have problems doing a design different to a sports coupe and I think that is stupid. Can't believe that consumers actually request compromised head rome and loading space for a dynamic roof line. Maybe some car tester like it.
Arnd san Thanks for the feedback - always good to have the discussion. You know I also bring facts, experience and also my own opinion - which is welcome to be different to others :)
***** I see, but still think that this is a ver unlucky entry for a review. You actually don't tell us what the ugly part of the car actually is.
I found that most of the VW cars this days become a bit conservative and it's seems that there is no space some freedom in design. The Caddy got a refreshing shape, clear forms and a uncluttered interior. I would wish for other cars. What exactly you don't like at the design? ...to start the discussion.
Hd please
Janis Bingler When a video is just uploaded, youtube takes time to process. We never upload any video that is _not_ full hd ;-) Check again in an hour or so.
Okese, and also a Top video:) you just make very good Videos , i also watch as a Herman
Janis Bingler Thanks / Danke! :)
I think I would buy the Caddy Maxi to put my motorcycle in the back when I want to go to the track.
awesome bro :)
Thats the stuff!
I heard that it would also be possible to put a MX bike in the normal caddy, when you put it across and invert the handlebars, seen a photo of that. Havent tried myself yet though. For sure the maxi is easier to load
You are very tall
Why do you call it "2nd Generation"? The official identifer by VW is "Generation Four".
DJ Taip yeah, I was referring to the 2nd generation since turning of the decade, the total amount is four now, exactly!
wow still no arm rest in commercial caddy.. WTF is VW thinking. i hate driving mine and not having a place to rest my arm
I'm not too into the car world (when it comes to knowing things) but I think it's funny how the front looks almost the same as other cars from Volkswagen. Their cars got very boring to me...
