Expanding on the current programme, families and adventure-seekers now have the opportunity to explore the UK in either the compact camper, Caddy California, or the California 6.1 for a seven-day trial period.

What’s more, the all-electric ID. Buzz and ID. Buzz Cargo will join the line-up of available models soon, allowing customers to live the electric life.

‘Try Before You Buy’ means customers pay £999 for seven days; for those that wish to purchase the vehicle for future adventures, this cost will be refunded when an order is placed. For anyone looking to experience the Caddy California, there is a payment of £499.

With 63 per cent of drivers stating that longer, unaccompanied test drives would be preferable to better inform purchasing decisions, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles gives customers the opportunity to live with the vehicle and better understand if it suits their needs.

In the case of ID. Buzz and ID. Buzz Cargo, ‘Try Before You Buy’ gives customers the chance to try out an electric vehicle for a whole week. Switching to electric can be daunting, but Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles hopes that by offering an extended test, customers will feel empowered to make the right decision.

Customers can learn more about the ‘Try Before You Buy’ scheme at VWFS Rent-a-Car website.
