The Volkswagen Caddy Maxi provides bigger load volume, longer load length and a greater payload. With a load volume of 4.2m³, payload of 800kg and load length of 2250mm the possibilies are endless. The Caddy Maxi offers 469mm extra load length over the standard Caddy. Access is gained at the rear through twin asymmetric wing doors with a width of 1,181mm and height of 1,116mm. Side access is made easy through two wide side sliding doors, each opening to a width of 700mm and height of 1,108mm. The load compartment is fitted with six load lashing rings, half-height side lining and a robust full-height solid bulkhead to give maximum protection to driver and passenger.

The Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG) available on the 104PS engine operates with two automatic clutches - while one is engaged the other is ready to accept the next gear. This twin clutch technology means gears can be changed much faster than with a standard automatic gearbox. Of course if you prefer you can still change gears manually. The 104PS TDI PD diesel engine with 6-speed DSG semi-automatic gearbox is equipped with a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) as standard on the Caddy Maxi.

One glance will identify the Caddy Maxi Sportline as a little bit special. Colour-coded bumpers, mirrors and door handles, lower front spoiler, rear roofline spoiler, integrated front fog lights, chrome front grilles and the bespoke 17" 6-spoke alloy wheels have a Sportline centre logo which all add to the sporty feel. The chrome side rails not only look good, they also protect the sills from damage. The interior is a bit special too, with the seats being upholstered in premium grade, hand-crafted black Italian leather using red stitching, micro perforated centre panels and an exclusive embroidered Sportline logo. The driver’s compartment is ergonomically laid out, and additional touches are easily apparent. Equipped with ‘Climatic’ air conditioning, an RCD 310 Radio/CD unit featuring an AUX-IN socket for connection to an external multimedia source such as MP3 player and iPod, and conveniently located controls for the electronic front windows and the electronically adjustable heated mirrors.
