Volkswagen Sharan Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1995–2000) — First Generation
When choosing a first-generation Volkswagen Sharan, consider how it feels with passengers and luggage aboard. The engine, transmission and drivetrain combination deserves attention when you test-drive this family minivan.
Volkswagen Sharan engine choices include the gasoline 1.8 MT, with manual control and front-wheel drive. The diesel 1.9 AT pairs front-wheel drive with automatic convenience; diesel generally offers better fuel economy on longer journeys. The gasoline 2.8 AT combines an automatic transmission with all-wheel drive for added traction, although the extra drivetrain components can increase maintenance costs.
