Volkswagen Caddy V

Efficient for its class at 6.5 L/100 km, easing fuel costs on daily drives and longer trips
Two-seat layout with 610 L of cargo space suits gear-heavy errands and small-business use
Balanced everyday performance from 122 hp and 250 Nm (0–100 km/h in 10.5 s)
Price near 25,000 provides good value in its segment
Only two seats; not suitable if you regularly carry more than one passenger
Modest 0–100 km/h in 10.5 s and 180 km/h top speed won’t satisfy performance-focused buyers
Petrol powertrain won’t appeal if you want electrified efficiency or diesel-like range
Function-over-frills approach if you prioritize a premium cabin feel
