New Volkswagen Lavida

The previous Lavida was made from 2008 until early 2012, it was a great succes with Volkswagen selling some 700.000 cars. The new car loox more grown up but will be priced as the old car, which will certainly appeal to the market. Buyers can choose between a 1.6 or a 1.4 turbo, mated to a 5-speed manual, a 6-speed automatic or a 7-speed DSG. The old Lavida’s 2.0 will not return in the new car. Volkswagen is also working on a Lavida hatchback, which is a first for the Lavida-line.
