Visit http://www.autonetwork.com to view the entire event. Get a quick look at the new Routan Minivan launch of Volkwagen's VW first minivan the Routan held in San Franciso, Oct. 7-9, 2008.
Looks pretty average on the outside IMO, like it could be any old people mover. The back is a little Volkswagen-ish but other than that the styling is very bland. Nothing beats the Honda Odessy for style these days. I'm sure this would win in almost every other category for people movers though.
It's nothing but a Dodge caravan and Chrysler & country with a VW badge and ugly styling, not to mention a jacked up price. VW wasted their time on this one.
I hope your inventor was in quotes to be sarcastic re Chrysler's claim- VW invented the minivan pre 60's starting with the Kombi- 3 rows of seats possible; our 75 bus
has the removable middle row and back seat folds flat.
the Chrysler Routan...oh, sorry, I mean the Volkswagen Routan. Yep, that's the right name. It's a little confusing, but let me explain.

This is not a real Vw, it's more like a Chrysler van with a VW badge on it. The real VW van is the T5. This doesn't look half as good.

it does have really good looks, inside a bit bland. i wouldn't buy it though, due to the chrysler mechanicals, not for that price..
