Volkswagen Routan

The Routan is VW's latest player in the minivan game after sitting on the sidelines for six years. However, it's a Dodge Grand Caravan/Chrysler Town & Country underneath its Vee Dub uniform. Drive them all to see if VW's revisions to the suspension, dashboard and seats are worth the price difference you'll pay for the German badge.
