VW taps Chrysler, and the Routan is no microbus
September 03, 2008
The problem with the 2009 Volkswagen Routan isn't so much what it is as what it's not. What it is is VW's restyled version of the newest-generation Chrysler minivan, introduced last year.
What it's not is a VW Microbus. Apparently, we have to wait a few more years for that, maybe coming someday from VW's new U.S. factory in Chattanooga, Tenn.
