Oh, by the way, I have no problems whatsoever with the spoken English in autogefühl videos. Thomas has a pleasant voice and a good sense of humour. It is never hard to understand.

[@sergeysemenovich4671]

Thank you for the so detailed overview of the Sharan's interior, exterior and vw options. Some details are realy important.

[@rossthomson6274]

Another great review Thomas, really enjoyable to watch and full of good information. Keep up the good work.

@@autogefuehl Dear Thomas, what do you think about the difference in fuel consumtion between the 150hp power varients of this the smaller golf sportsvan, and the bigger t6 caravelle or multivan? I'm hasitating about buying 1 of these 3, and concerned about the most sace per fuel consumption ratio. Thanks in advance!

[@jameswestwood]

Great review Thomas, I have a Seat Alhambra with a similar spec. I notice you had a problem with the folding tables in the rear of the White car. If you pull the table up further it should click and it will be level and secure. Jim (Scotland)

Like your reviews.Could you do a review of the honda Civic diesel and or type R

[@eaven60]

Always interesting reviews from Thomas, the Sharan is however not a car you know too well. :-) For my use it is very good, many long trips to the mountain during winter, roomy, comfortable and silent, using sport mode when 5-6 adults in the car to ensure somewhat firm ride. Enough space for three tall adults in the back seat. Ground clearance also ok, not as good as SUVs, but better than ordinary cars. (VW Sharan 2012 4Motion)

[@MarioDallaRiva]

Great job Thomas! Nice people carrier by VW. Strange model name I must say. vW does choose some odd names for their products. Good point re dark dashboard. I noticed quite a reflection from the light colour A-pillar as you were talking about that! All the best to you and your crew. Great child seat too! Good for rally days with the family :)

[@autogefuehl]

Mario Dalla Riva Volkswagen often uses desert winds for naming!

[@londonas2]

very nice car and an awesome review 👍

[@davidhayes4814]

Great video from Thomas. The Sharan will take 7 adults (even 7 six foot males) plus decent luggage. The Touran will take a family of 7 with kids. That is very different.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks! yeah it is

[@firestrikebs]

I am getting either this or a ford galaxy as a rental car for my holiday. I definitely think I would prefer this but I personally do not mind

[@DrAnne-mc8er]

*How strange! The LED's briefly stopped flickering when Thomas put his hands near them at around **2:51** Thomas has the force with him!!!*

[@autogefuehl]

haha =)

[@ddbbel5654]

It's a pity that VW does not offer 4motion version for new Sharan anymore, I have the TDI 150hp 4motion 7 seater which I will keep it for as long as possible

[@Jiorgy]

Thomas, I find your presentations really good and very helpful. I would like to ask you something about the Sharan. 1) What is the difference between a TDI 2,0 lt 150 hp engine and a TSI 1,4 lt 150hp engine in terms of power and consumption? 2) Is the petrol engine (1,4 with the 150 hp) powerful enough to move the Sharan satisfactorily or you do you think that Sharan is quite heavy and it would be beter to buy 2,0 lt diesel (184hp)? Thank you. G.

[@autogefuehl]

+Giorgos Kontovas thanks giorgos! The consumption will be about 9 litres / 100 km for the petrol and 7 litres for the Diesel. The petrol accelerations 10 sec 0-100 km/h, the diesel 10,6 sec. But as the Diesel has more torque, it will be at least equal when not faster when the car is heavily loaded. Both engines are really enough for that vehicle.

[@englishwithayoub1087]

and Thomas ithink you à great présenter of cars in autogefhul

[@knrj]

So... when is an all new Sharan coming out? Should one wait out?

[@kiehm93]

Please change the camera man and try and get better edit of the video. This is great though. Thank you. Nice and helpfull review.

[@Irbis2010]

They look good

[@perekelund8088]

Bright interior could work, but why are the seat belts still black? I think they should reflect the seats and be cream coloured.

[@mvajustinit]

Hi Thomas, great video as always! Just 1 question though, in the old model you could remove the rearseats, is that no longer possible ?

[@autogefuehl]

M van Aerde Hey, thanks! You mean the 6th and 7th one when you have the option or the normal rear seats in the 2nd row? The latter one should be possible AFAIK

[@mvajustinit]

***** Hi, no I do mean the ones on the 2nd Row :) You didn't show that, and since you are always that thourough I thought it was no longer possible :-)

[@autogefuehl]

M van Aerde Hmm that should be still possible. I will do that stuff in the new Transporter/Multivan/T6 review :)

[@pavel3485]

Hi Thomas thanks for this video. I would like to now your sincerely opinion about which you can recommend Seat Alhambra - Vw Sharan or Ford Galaxy? All cars last versions. Thanks

[@marcusl9437]

I would like to hear your opinion about the TDI 184 DSG for long highspeed Autobahn marches. Is the car stable at high speeds? Is it suitable for high speed Autobahn marches? I miss the Autobahn stage in this review. A review that is otherwise quite excellent.

[@autogefuehl]

+Marcus Lejonkamp thanks! Yeah it does also fine on the motorway! Of course the car is quite high so there will be more wind turbulences than in a flat sedan. But overall a good Autobahn car

[@Donization2010]

[@tomkammuller2009]

Hi! My name is also Tom! I like your videos, they're nice! What car do you have? (Spain)

[@autogefuehl]

I had a long time a Jaguar but meanwhile we have so many test vehicles or we are so many events so that I do not have an own car.

[@spencerbowditch8601]

¿Dónde está mi “Let’s go!”?

[@bosas66666]

Speaking about 4motion you were write that when you want you want to take all the options, maybe you didn't know there was such a option (to take all) but in my sharan which is arriving tommorow, there will be 4 motion 180 horse power and with DSG :) but they didn't let to take 7 seats and panaromic roof because according to VW its going to be too heavy with all options. :(

[@autogefuehl]

oh wow, strange stuff!

[@Fedjapedia]

warum zeigt ihr nicht die neuen rückleuchten in action? Das ist wohl DAS auffälligste äußerliche merkmal beim facelift!

[@fredrikmelin1490]

How come you dont do more bmw reviews? Not a complaint, just curious! Great review as always by the way!

[@autogefuehl]

Fredrik Melin Thanks! Yeah, good point indeed, the next BMW review will follow by the end of next month with the 4-Series convertible. To be frank: BMW obviously does not appreciate our work as much as Volkswagen does, at least not yet.

[@autogefuehl]

[@mitchellcregor4377]

Thomas - I watched your film with interest and assumed - that having spoken in English that car would be available in England. I am told that the specifications you showed in the dark grey one - in which I am interested - can't be got here i.e. the faux leather seats without a sunroof which takes out headroom and is thus unappealing. Can you advise on this dilemma ?

[@autogefuehl]

hey Mitchell, indeed the specs vary from country to country. E.g. in the Kia Niro the white glossy elements on the dashboard are available in France but not in Germany. Sometimes it is very trick. You have to study price lists...

[@MarkBurns-qv5el]

Lovely roomy car and sat nav good in the Tiguan.

[@interceptor-ss8kb]

The sliding rear doors put me off made it feel more van then car, went for the Galaxy instead.

[@kiche384]

are you going to review S Maxx Vignales

[@autogefuehl]

We got a S-MAX review here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4rTcniCr8tgmaM The Vignale versions are bullshit. They consist of a surplus price with massive amounts of animal skin providing suffering for cows and humans.

[@joloui2035]

the darker color inside is better because the beije one can show a lot more stains and overtime dirt, spots and imperfections du to usage:) Hi from montreal hehe

[@autogefuehl]

[@BleakVision]

What the hell, the Sharan is not a proper 7 seater? What happened?

[@alcassineulina316]

Thomas, congrats as well! Profiting of the occasion I'd like to ask a question. Say that You have a fair amount of money, can afford the Touran, Sharan or even the Multivan T6. Say that you have a family of four ( with two kids below 8 YO) but now and then you need the 6 person capacity inb your car to bring along the Grandparents. I am considering many options and got really puzzled. Touran is without any doubt the most economic and can be fitted with 8 inch Discover Pro. Sharan has more space and the sliding doors, which are lacking in the Touran. T 6 offers even more space, but loading occasional cargo means a lot more of work with seats than in the small ones.... Which one would you chose and why?

[@autogefuehl]

hey m8, thanks for following us. Indeed the Touran is the best price/performance bet and it is the newer car than the Sharan. The Sharan does have more luggage space, if that's crucial ... the Touran is the best to drive of those three. The Multivan is an excellent vehicle too and gives you the biggest flexibility and most room, but is very expensive. It also depends on: How narrow is your personal parking lot / garage and in which surroundings do you drive? Have you seen our reviews...

[@alf637]

I just picked up my new Sharan 2.0 tdi edition dsg 2017. I have cars for three years and I do about 200,000 km during this time. Previous cars; A VW Maxi Caddy Comfort line 2.0 tdi (140 hp) with an insufferable rear suspension, worthy of a western wagon, and 5 Sharan 2.0 TDI manual gearbox (previous generation without sliding doors). I am a commercial agent and I travel only with bulky samples, I need amplitude, comfort and to be able to use the car over the weekend with the family. Once again VW makes an incomplete product. No spare tire, no puncture kit or anything, comes with puncture-resistant, expensive and limited-supply tires. A prick or burst with a curb, translates into a morning or a day lost ... A real tease. The modularity of the seats is painful, they only fold (no hiding in the floor) being very high and occupy much space still folded. They can not be taken out of the car. With seven seats there is a ridiculous trunk space for seven occupants. Access to the third row is uncomfortable. The improvement of the sliding doors with respect to the previous generation is annulled with the many steps behind given with respect to the rear seats (the fact that they can not be taken out of the car, it seems incredible).

[@autogefuehl]

thanks for the feedback - and still enjoy your ride!

[@asadhassan6449]

vw take actions against those councils who are not passing this mpv in 7 seater

Thomas, can you recommend a car for a 193 cm guy like me who wants to take a seat in the back? ideally I would like to place two persons and one child's seat at the back. any recommendations?

The Sharan does have quite high seating position in the rear for the kids. You can check any review on the channel, we are always testing the rear seats.

Zwar ein schönes Review, aber bei deinen Englischskills muss man sich fremdschämen. Mach lieber deutsche Videos, dein Englisch ist wirklich schlecht, vor allem die Betonungen und der Akzent ist deutlich zu hören.

[@autogefuehl]

rct800 Hallo! Unsere Website für ausführliche Hintergrundinformationen machen wir auf Deutsch.Die Videos laufen über KZbin und erreichen ein internationales Publikum, sehr viele Zuschauer aus USA, Deutschland, Großbritannien, Japan, Russland und weitere aus über 100 Ländern der Welt. Darum sind die meisten unserer Videos auf Englisch. Die meisten deutschen Videozuschauer verstehen auch Englisch, aber fast alle anderen verstehen kein Deutsch. Insofern ist es nur logisch, die Videos auf Englisch anzubieten, was auch sehr gut ankommt.Wir würden uns freuen, wenn du auf Deutsch unsere Text-Berichterstattung verfolgst und auch hier unsere englischen Videos. Herzliche Grüße Thomas

[@Phoboss32]

rct800 Ich finde, dass er klar und deutlich spricht. Kannst du es denn besser?

[@Donization2010]

Wie bitte? Thomas hat ein 1a Vokabular und stockt nicht mal 1 Sekunde. Findet immer die richtigen Begriffe und spricht absolut klar und deutlich. Der Wortschatz ist extrem gut. Sein Englisch wird global sicher besser verstanden, als das von "native speakern". Ich fände es viel peinlicher, wenn er versuchen würde seinen deutschen Akzent zu verbergen und auf Cowboy zu machen. Bin ich echt sprachlos bei so einem Kommentar. Mach das mal besser...
