Nissan hasn't had much luck with minivans. The Routan is a curious case; I don't see why VW would want to get into a market that is declining every single year due to 7/8 passenger crossovers becoming better and better. Why not just develop their own crossover, or engineer the next Touareg to seat 7?

Replying to: jchan2 (Dec 25, 2008 7:12 pm) I could see Nissan bringing over a version of the Renault Espace vans instead of chasing after the Caravan, but having the factory and tooling set up would be an advantage. And the Caravan brand is still worth something. The Routan is curious. Lots of minivan fans like me were disappointed that VW didn't do the Microbus concept that they floated a few years back. hmm, just thought of something. If Chrysler goes dark, maybe I could pick up a Grand Caravan for dirt cheap and take it to the VW dealer for service if a local mechanic got stuck on a problem. Might be worth taking a flyer on. Too bad they quit making the short wheel base one a while back. |
