Test drive Volkswagen Caravelle T6: Friendly company. Test drive Volkswagen Caravelle T6 Highline: what is the surcharge for? Options and prices

In mid-April 2015, the German automaker presented a van of the new Volkswagen generations T6, which, like , has several different versions: Multivan, Transporter and Caravelle.

Like most modern representatives of the brand, the new Volkswagen T6 2017-2018 model received only evolutionary external changes, while in the profile view, the car is practically indistinguishable from the car of the previous generation.

Distinctive features Volkswagen T6 2017 in a new body are redesigned bumpers, retouched grille and hood, modified lighting with diode sections, as well as another trunk lid.

Inside, the minivan is greeted with a completely new front panel, other steering wheel and gearshift lever, as well as improved finishing materials. In honor of the launch of the novelty, the manufacturer has prepared a limited special version of the T6 model called "Generation SIX".

This variant is styled after the classic Volkswagen Type 2 van (the Type 1 suffix belongs to the original Beetle) with two-tone body paint, chrome package, 18-inch rims special design, Alcantara trim in the cabin and an extended list of standard equipment.

As power units for the Volkswagen T6 Transporter / Miltivan (passenger), a 2.0-liter gasoline TSI with a capacity of 150 and 204 hp is offered, as well as a new two-liter diesel engine with the “EA288 Nutz” index, available in output options for 84, 102, 150 and 204 hp All options meet environmental standards "Euro-6".

For the van, an adaptive Dynamic Cruise Control chassis is available with three operating modes: Comfort, Normal and Sport. Heating is also available for an extra charge. windshield, blind spot monitoring system, adaptive cruise control and power tailgate.

Volkswagen price The T6 2020 in Germany starts at €23,035 for the commercial version and €29,952 for the passenger Multivan. For a car in Russia, they ask from 2,637,300 rubles, Comforline equipment costs from 3,317,600, and for Highline they ask from 3,847,400.


Volkswagen has one small sin. It looks like they spied it on their Eastern colleagues. Not a sin, but so, a prank. Issue restyling for new model. Actually, there is nothing shameful here at all, if we are talking about a modern and technologically advanced car, and updates occur almost once every six months. FROM Volkswagen Transporter T6, or rather, with its passenger version of the Caravelle, the same story happened. But not everything is so sad. What can please fans of automobile cultural trips with the new T6 2016-2017 model year, let's figure it out right now.

Options and prices Volkswagen Caravelle 2016-2017 model year

"Great bead. How much did you give?" - everyone who decides to buy a new Volkswagen Caravelle will have to prepare an on-duty answer to this question. The busik is excellent, but it costs as much as a good apartment in Vladimir costs. Although, happiness is not in money when you have such a luxurious and hospitable device. In fact, the car new assembly not too different from the T5 generation, which, in turn, was built on the basis of the T4 Transporter. And it was, indeed, a revolution. The news is mainly about interior comfort and trim levels. Also, a couple of positions have been added to the line of motors and gearboxes.

Volkswagen Multivan in this regard was somewhat more fortunate. This is a more expensive modification, although the technical part of the machine is very similar. The difference is only in the interior trim and a couple of external differences, which are not easy to see with the naked eye. Main feature model range Caravelle and the entire T6 family became a car in the Six Generation edition. It's kind of top-of-the-line, but on the outside, the car features a two-tone bright paint job commemorating the first-generation 1950 Volkswagen T1 and retro-inspired alloy wheels. Conditional retro.

The most inexpensive Transporter T6 in the cargo version will cost no more than 1,400,000 rubles. A car in the simplest passenger version will cost 1,820,000 rubles, our Caravelle costs from 1,950,000, and a Multivan is cheaper than 2.5 million. To call the Caravelle expensive is not a tongue-in-cheek just because it actually has no competitors. You can put the Hyundai H1 next to it, but not for long, since neither the configuration nor the appearance of the Korean is capable of adequate competition with the new T6. Like it or not, but the breed can be seen immediately. Quite conditionally, Mercedes Viano and Toyota's Alphard can be considered among the Caravelle's competitors, but if you look at the price tag, these cars are clearly not for large families.


What about Caravelle? And Caravelle will be able to completely arrange a comfortable movement for big family and for a big company. By the way, this niche in the market is not developed almost completely. Those who look at roomy crossovers with three rows of seats, they are well aware that apart from the mother-in-law and the dog, without remorse, it will not be possible to seat anyone on the third row. The third row in such cars is frankly flawed, and the price of crossovers and large SUVs such a plan starts from two million. So it remains to be content with Gazelle or Sable, Sprinter or Transit. But these are already frank minibuses. Caravelle, on the other hand, offers easy driving comfort, small dimensions, decent dynamics and human fuel consumption.

Specifications Volkswagen Caravella 2016-2017

The new Caravelle is bigger on the inside than on the outside. At least, that's how it seems when you approach a small van, open the sliding door, and an unrealistically large space awaits you in the cabin. Huge space, like in a Ford Transit. Moreover, depending on the configuration, you can choose T6 on a long base and on a short one, the difference between which is 400 mm. Joking aside, and this is plus three seats, full-fledged, and not flawed, as in three-row interiors of crossovers or minivans. In total, from seven to nine people can be comfortably seated in the cabin of a standard Caravelle.

As far as engines are concerned, official dealers Volkswagen in Russia offers to warm up starting with a 2.0-liter diesel engine for 102 horses. In the minimum configuration, a five-speed manual transmission. And here the difference with the previous generation is already felt. T5 was completed with a similar diesel engine, but only for 85 forces. A 114-horsepower diesel engine has already asked for almost two million on sale. One step up is the more powerful diesel engine for 140 forces. In fact, it repeats the design of the previous one, and the power is increased due to forcing. In richer trim levels, you can buy a Caravelle with a 180 horsepower turbodiesel with new turbines that appeared on this engine only last year. There are also two petrol two-liter engines for 150 and 210 forces. Except mechanical box gears, it is possible to install the famous seven-speed DSG. The robot can be installed only in the most expensive trim levels. There is also an all-wheel drive modification of the Caravelle.

Initially, the interior trim of the Caravelle is much simpler than the Multivan. On the one hand, this is not bad, since the car will in any case be used not only to transport passengers, but also cargo. At least sometimes. A little simpler than in the more expensive Multivan, the shape of the seats, the upholstery and the shape of the panels, and behind the wheel the driver feels like on a test drive of a big Golf. Only landing a little higher. In the minimum configuration, the car is equipped with a simple radio, but the most sophisticated multimedia system and front panel are available for an extra charge. Exactly the same as installed in the salon of the top Multivan. Frankly, she has nothing to do in Caravelle, since her surface is impractical. Gets dirty quickly and leaves fingerprints on it. But this panel will have a chic eight-inch touchscreen, which is part of the Composition Media multimedia system.

Bus or station wagon? Caravel!

Transporters of all generations, used or new, were loved not for the music in the cabin and not for the beautiful front panels. Not even behind the wheel of a Golf with power steering, as in the current generation. Owner reviews about the easy handling of the Caravelle have been confirmed this year as well. Ride quality like passenger car, and practicality, the possibility of transforming the interior, spaciousness - like a minibus. Still would. The new Volkswagen T6 on a long base easily takes 12 people on board. And not just like that, but with such comfort that any passenger car will envy.

Three-zone climate control is installed in the interior of the Caravelle, however, this applies to older trim levels. AT inexpensive cars You'll have to settle for regular air conditioning. And climate control is not controlled from the front panel, but directly from the passenger compartment. The climate control unit is placed on the ceiling and is located above the second row of seats. The seats are made separate, that is, they allow you to adjust the position of the backrests and cushions independently of each other. Swivel seats are not available for the Caravelle. They were left only for Multiven. But rear seats Complete with Isofix child seat kits. If necessary, the salon is quite simply transformed into a cargo one. At the same time, it is not at all necessary to remove the seats, it is enough to fold the backs, but the seats are completely removed quite simply.

A regular 180-horsepower turbodiesel, as a rule, suits everyone and completely. It is moderately dynamic and does not ask for too much. The passport promises that the fuel consumption of a turbodiesel on the highway will not exceed 6 liters, and many test drives confirm this figure. City consumption is approaching 10 liters per hundred, but for such big car it's quite normal. Given that the bvk holds 80 liters, but it can go quite far. For urban traffic, a system for saving fuel and reducing emissions is provided. The start / stop system is optional, can be included as in automatic mode, as well as manually. Showed itself well on the Caravelle and the new seven-speed robotic box DSG. The car has excellent acceleration and the lack of dynamics will not be felt either in the city or on the highway.

The power steering and the steering wheel itself, which Caravelle got from Golf, work perfectly, the car is controlled easily and distinctly. Interestingly, the turning radius of the new T6 is 5.95 m, which is only 400 mm more than the Volkswagen Golf. In addition, the steering wheel is very short and informative. From lock to lock - only three and a half turns. The adaptive suspension went to the car from Multivan. The suspension operation algorithm is peculiar, but it suits any driving conditions and any roads. Variable ground clearance within 40 mm from the base 193 mm allows you to choose the right fit, and if necessary, go into a sporty, harder mode. Not everyone will like it, however, for good asphalt, the suspension settings in Sport mode are quite convincing.

Caravelle is an expensive car, especially in the Trendline configuration. But it's the right investment. Almost like real estate. The fact is that the price of a used Caravelle is in no hurry to fall, and spare parts are always in price. Analysts automotive market they say that to buy a T5 with a passenger compartment on secondary market possible, but not cheaper than 1.5-1.8 million. This applies to three-year-old beads. A five-year or seven-year-old Volkswagen T5 in the Caravelle variant can be bought up to a million, depending on the configuration. Diesel atmospheric modifications are in particular demand, and for some reason small turbocharged ones are sold worst of all in Russia. gasoline engines. Despite their reliability and efficiency, the public is afraid of their manufacturability and demands on the quality of oil, filters, gasoline

Sales market: Russia.

The Caravelle is the passenger version of the Transporter, the world famous series of commercial Volkswagen cars. At the heart of the new generation T6 is an upgraded platform from the previous generation, which was a great success in the global market due to the perfect balance of economy, environmental friendliness, safety and comfort. The spacious interior allows optimal use of space, has many transformation options and can be used as a full-fledged mobile office. The car is available in two versions: with a standard and long wheelbase. Depending on the performance, the number of seats is from five to nine. If necessary, Caravelle is easy to turn into cargo van- All seats beyond the first row are removable. And the "Long" version, the length and wheelbase which are increased by 40 cm - one of the most practical options among passenger cars of category "B". For Russian market cars are offered with gasoline (150 and 204 hp) and diesel (102, 140 and 180 hp) engines, paired with "mechanics" or DSG box, there are all-wheel drive versions.


Compared with the previous generation, the exterior of the Caravelle has changed somewhat: the bumpers, the radiator grill, the head optics, the rear fog lights have changed, a spoiler has appeared on the roof, the tailgate has ceased to be double-leaf. Ergonomics of the driver's seat and interior design have also received their evolutionary development. Of course, the minibus was supplemented with high-tech stuffing: climate control (three-zone in expensive trim levels), heated seats, sun blinds on the windows, electric windshield heating, full power accessories, and a rear-view mirror with automatic dimming. Thanks to new communication technologies, you can use Internet access, the navigation system is able to navigate the route past traffic jams. A closer can be installed on the tailgate, on the side - an electric drive with remote control. Among other features Volkswagen equipment Caravelle can be called an electronic voice amplifier, a Bluetooth interface for hands-free conversations, adaptive suspension and a wide range of driving assistance systems

For the Caravelle T6, turbo diesel four-cylinder two-liter engines of the TDI series with a capacity of 102, 140 and 180 hp, as well as two-liter TSI petrol turbo engines with a return of 150 and 204 hp are offered. In both lines, the initial motors work in conjunction with a mechanical 6-speed gearbox, front-wheel drive. A more powerful 140-horsepower diesel engine can work both with “mechanics” (front or all-wheel drive) and with an automatic 7-speed DSG box (dual-clutch robot) in front-wheel drive. Both top-end engines - a 204-horsepower gasoline and 180-horsepower diesel - are equipped with a DSG "robot" and provide two options: front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. In the most dynamic version 2.0 TSI (204 hp) Caravelle accelerates from zero to hundreds in 9.5 seconds. With the new motors, environmental performance and efficiency have improved even more. Consumption for gasoline engines - from 9 to 10.5 l / 100 km. For diesel - from 5.9 to 8.8 l / 100 km. Volume fuel tank- 80 liters.

Chassis Volkswagen Caravelle includes both independent suspensions- front with MacPherson strut struts, rear on double levers. Electronically adjustable adaptive dampers improve handling and comfort by changing the stiffness of the suspension. There are modes: Normal, Comfort and Sport. 4MOTION all-wheel drive based on a multi-plate clutch distributes torque between the front and rear axles, increasing safety on slippery roads. As standard, all Caravelles have an electronic cross-axle differential lock (on the front axle or on both - when ordering all-wheel drive). The proposed mechanical locking rear differential (optional with 4MOTION) further enhances flotation. Compared with its predecessor, the length of the Caravelle body has increased from 4892 to 5006 mm, and the long version - from 5292 to 5406 mm. The standard length of the luggage compartment, depending on the length of the body, is 739 / 1118 mm. The second and third row of seats can be folded down for a huge cargo volume of 5800 / 6700 liters, with a maximum loading length of up to 2570 / 2970 mm.

All Caravelles are equipped by default with electronic system maintaining exchange rate stability, two frontal pillows, automatic system post-accident braking. Additionally, two high (combined) side airbags are offered to protect the head and chest of the driver and front passenger, as well as curtain airbags in the passenger compartment. In addition, the new generation of Volkswagen Caravelle has an adaptive cruise control with a full stop function (for versions with DSG), a frontal collision avoidance system, adaptive high beam, Side Assist lane change assistance systems, Rest Assist driver fatigue monitoring. For all-wheel drive versions, a descent control system is offered.

Read completely

For the sake of objectivity, I note that outside, and inside, the revolution did not happen. Everything experienced by the T6 is rather drawn to a deep restyling. Just look at the photo above and tell me I'm wrong. On the other hand, if, as they say, “people eat”, why reinvent the wheel? So, however, it was almost always, but somehow, in the 65 years after the release of the first Bulli, the new cab became what it is. And yet, in order not to take the rap for the manufacturer, I took the Caravelle in the Highline version, which was previously absent, for a test. Here is our short-wheelbase van (in the long-wheelbase version +40 cm between the C-pillar and rear axle) with eight seats (the maximum possible number for a short wheelbase is nine) already looks in a different light.

Highline is when on the doorstep dealer center you receive an unexpected text message about the fallen 13th salary (aka bonus). This is when you initially wanted a marriage of convenience, and the relatives of your future wife turned out to be not ruble, but dollar millionaires. In a word, when you can and should decide on something more than you expected.

First, because it's beautiful. The headlights are completely, which, in addition to aesthetics, also adds a more interesting controlled light. Here you have not only cornering lights, but also an intelligent high beam beam that does not blind the oncoming traffic. I traveled 700 km from Moscow to Minsk - it works like a clock. And you don't have to change bulbs every season - LEDs last ten times longer than traditional halogens! Separately, the response speed of the far one is amusing when you need to blink.

No, but what, only the owners of the top have fun? Here are the 17" alloy wheels Cascavel (we had Devonport for an extra charge), and tinted windows (by the way, why are there side curtains in the cabin?), And power sliding doors on the sides. In severe frosts or simply as unnecessary, the electric drive can be turned off. But you feel how the degree is growing: sliders on both sides, and even with a drive?! Mmm!

The beauty continues in the salon. The front panel of the Highline has been replaced with the one in the new Multivan, with plastic inserts with a "piano lacquer" coating. Beautiful, but impractical: forensic experts can see fingerprints with the naked eye. On the right side is an additional upper storage compartment with a lid, where for some reason the USB connector for connecting a smartphone has left. No, really, why make a niche for storing a mobile phone in the central part, if you have to drag the cable for connecting to multimedia from a nearby box? But instead of a 5-inch display for a surcharge (surcharge even in the Highline configuration, Carl!) In the test car, the Composition Media system with an 8-inch screen. We have already seen this on . Under the bottom edge are sensors that react to the approach of the hand and "awaken" the hidden menu on the screen.

Otherwise, multimedia would be very ordinary, if not for one circumstance: using the cable I mentioned earlier, you can connect a smartphone to it and use Apple CarPlay or Android Auto to get a stripped-down version of your mobile phone right on the central display. I tried CarPlay - no problems, but Android Auto did not want to start with any of the three tested devices. Mystic!

And do not even try to whisper with your wife about the mother-in-law sitting behind. On her side is a listening device in the form of a driver's voice amplifier. A microphone is installed in the front of the cabin, which transmits what he said to the passengers. However, this function can be disabled, but vigilance should not be lost.

The second row seats are separate - all with Isofix mounts. To increase the useful volume of the luggage compartment, you can remove both rows or fold their backs into a flat plane.

In general, Caravelle, despite the fact that the car is commercial, is stuffed with all sorts of helpers and assistants in a way that many cars never dreamed of. Speaking of sleep. Rest Assist keeps you awake at the wheel and suggests you take a break on a long drive. Well, if you have already begun to nod off, then City Emergency Braking at speeds up to 30 km / h will help you slow down in front of an obstacle.

However, derivatives from the Transporter are preferred not for gadgets, but for verified passenger driving manners, coupled with the practicality of a truck / bus. This is where they didn't break anything. If you want to carry people, please: four rows of seats (in a long base) can accommodate up to 12 people. And with what comfort! Three-zone climate control with a separate control unit above the heads of second-row passengers is always at your service. By the way, the second row consists of separate seats (swivel seats remained the prerogative of the Multivan) with Isofix mounts, while the side ones rise to let passengers go back. And if you decide to do the transportation of goods - with a slight movement of your hand (for the rear sofa you will need the hands of a weightlifter), we remove the seats and get cubic meters of usable space. Just don't stain the carpet! However, it is not necessary to remove the seats - in some cases it will be enough to fold the backs almost into a flat plane. Backdoor it can be both double-leaf and lifting, as in our case, and with an electric guide in a premium manner.

biTDI engine (180 hp, transversely mounted and 8 degrees inverted)

From a driving point of view, the Caravelle is a sin to complain about. And here I am again about Highline. Under the hood is the same turbodiesel, now installed transversely, with all the same indicators (180 hp, 400 Nm). Unless the peak torque bar is at your disposal 100 rpm earlier - from 1500 to 4000 rpm. Not essential. "Eat" is still not enough: on the highway, on winter tires, in the rain, and even with a full load - about 8 l / 100 km. So on a full tank (80 l) you can go very far. For greater savings, all Caravelles are equipped with a start-stop system.

This T6 accelerates cleaner than golf-class hatchbacks both from a standstill and on the move, even in front-wheel drive, which came to our test. The seven-speed DSG shifts gears, however, it was seen in petty hooliganism. Rolling up to a red traffic light, and then suddenly you need to accelerate again to flash green? You will inevitably get a boost. Works in eight cases out of ten, as it was possible to establish - between the second and third gears.

The steering wheel, inherited from Golf, with hydraulic booster - in this matter, the Germans still honor traditions. From lock to lock, I measured 3.25 turns, which allows you to easily and naturally maneuver in confined spaces (the turning radius is 5.95 m - only half a meter more than the same). Outward visibility is reference, although side mirrors single-section, unlike some competitors.

But along the way, the driving experience has changed. The point here is the new DCC suspension. Electronically controlled shock absorbers, after pressing a button on the center console, follow one of three operation algorithms: comfortable, normal and sporty. Here, too, there were no rough edges. The electronics harshly “grabs” the shock absorbers - as a result, we get an imitation of a breakdown (characteristic knocks) in a seemingly harmless place. So, I rode mostly in standard mode.

And now about the sad part. I don’t know why it was necessary, in the presence of Multivan, designed for transportation with chic, to produce a version of Caravelle close to it in spirit, but from a price point of view, it turned out to be an incident. Because our test subject costs as much as 3,798,600 rubles. No, of course, the Highline version is initially offered at a price of 2,762,200 rubles, but, as in the case of the premium, it turned out like this: not everything that glows is free. Do you want a packed car, about the base price tag even on top version you can forget. Headlight washer, sliding windows in the sliding doors and a rear-view camera - all this for a surcharge. And yet it is worth only once to ride on Caravelle Highline to fall in love with her forever. Marriage of convenience?

The truth is that for 3.8 million rubles. eyes still have room to run. Want a premium sedan, you can take a closer look at

Most motorists attribute autotuning to certain pleasant modifications. With it, the car looks much more presentable than in the standard version. And auto-tuning often not only plays the role of visual decoration, but also improves various properties of the car. It is worth noting that the tuning intended for the 2015-2019 Volkswagen Caravelle undoubtedly refreshes the design of the car.

Thresholds made of steel are in great demand, and aluminum thresholds are also often ordered from us. Such parts protect the car from various third-party reactions.

Autotuning can not only perform the task of decorating, but also be useful. Mounting a towbar is a clear example of such auto-tuning. This part is needed so that the car has the ability to tow another vehicle or use a trailer.
