Volkswagen Caddy Maxi Life generations

While Volkswagen has been building the Caddy model for several generations, the Maxi Life wasn't introduced until 2007, during the third generation. This longer-wheelbase people carrier has now entered its second generation (the fifth for the Caddy), and it benefits from some updated tech features.

Second Generation (2020-present)

With the new generation, the Caddy became the first commercial vehicle from VW to use the same platform as the Volksagen Golf. The switch allowed for more passenger-focused layout and additional space.

Multiple powertrains still exist, with options between petrol and diesel. The interior has also been updated to be more car-like and less van-oriented, with options for a touchscreen display of up to 10 inches.

Third Generation (2008 to 2020)

The third-generation Caddy was released in 2003, with the Maxi Life debuting in 2007. The underpinnings were created by combining parts from the Touran and the Golf MKV with a rear suspension meant for a lighter utility vehicle. The front design also resembled the Touran, while a driver's side rear sliding door was added to offer better accessibility.

A mild refresh in 2010 brought new headlights and a black grille. The 1.4-litre gas engine was replaced with a 1.2-litre option, ensuring more efficiency. The 1.9-litre diesel was also retired and swapped with a 1.6-litre TDI.

Third Generation (2008 to 2020)
