Take in all that a mini passenger van can

Either used as a family car or for commercial purposes, Volkswagen Sharan is one of the finest vehicles to drive in this category. Smooth handling, spacious inside and graceful from the outside makes this vehicle stand out among its competitors. For those who need a spacious MPV yet deceivingly smaller from outside, VW Sharan can give an excellent choice. With improved interior and even looks from outside, this MPV proves itself to be a fine addition in the market. For some, the outer look may be boring and not much fun, but for the buyer of this category, performance matters more than looks.

Engine line-up:

The engine line-up contains 3 engines in total, with one petrol and two diesel engines. There is also a choice in the transmission mode; the options are of 6-speed manual or a 6-speed DSG. The petrol engine is 1.4-Liter turbocharged with 148bhp. In the diesel side, there are two options with the 2.0-Liter at the base. It generates 113bhp, 148bhp and 181bhp. The petrol engine is quieter on the move but one has to pay the price on the pump of its performance. The diesel engines are more economical and the torque generated makes the ride more powerful, as it helps in driving the car with more ease even if it is loaded to its full capacity.

Driving Ability:

In Volkswagen Sharan, the diesel engines are said to be more efficient on road as they can cope with the vehicle’s weight in a much better way than petrol. For such a long vehicle, the sharpness in drive becomes difficult, but with Volkswagen’s sound technology and engineering, this feature is available in Sharan. The drive around the corners is quick and sharp and not much weight is felt along the turns. This makes the MPV a vehicle that can be handled with ease even on the most difficult roads.

Comfort level:

This family car is known for its comfort and spacious interior. Even on rough roads, the car drives through easily and the comfort level does not fall. The practicality of the car is commendable, unlike its rivals; the car is perfect to deal with what a family car goes through in daily routine. The interior is simple and compact, the technology installed is easy to handle. All the necessary safety gadgets are present to take care of your family traveling with you. There are no sophistications present that can be spoiled by children. The reason of a straight forward design is to keep the car solely for rough and tough use. There is a lot of boot space and the seats can be flattened to make an even floor. This gives a lot of room for the luggage.

Safety Guaranteed:

What is needed in a family car is the safety it can provide for the passengers. VW Saharan scores high in this feature with seven airbags, anti-lock brakes, knee airbags, curtain airbags, electronic stability control to prevent skids, ISOFIX child-seat mounts, tire- pressure monitoring and a seatbelt warning buzzer. Another very important feature that can be added is the post-collision braking system, which applies automatic brakes after collision to avoid another. These and many more safety features can be added to make the ride more safe and reliable for family.
