VW Caddy Carrera Cup Edition 2.0TDI R

Apparently, Porsche’s managerial involvement in VW’s affairs has allowed the latter to use German sportscamaker’s trademarked Carrera name (Spanish for "race") for one of its models, and in particular, the light commercial Caddy van. Created for the Swedish market, the Cady Carrera Cup Edition will be manufactured in a limited run of 250 units.

The special edition version is equipped with VW’s 2.0-liter turbo diesel unit that develops 140 Hp accelerating the Caddy van from zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 10.6 sec and on to a top speed of 186 km/h – 115 MPH. Carrera decals aside, the special Caddy gets a bodykit along with black colored 17-inch alloy wheels in 225/45 R17 tires. –Continued
