By 1996 Volkswagen’s design and production of their second generation Caddy’s had been farmed out to SEAT who were responsible for the Typ 9K van and Škoda who were responsible for the Typ 9U pick up featured today.

Both the 9K and 9U were based on VW Polo Mk 111 AO3 platforms, the 9U Pick Up came with either a 75 hp petrol or 64 hp diesel motors.

The 7′ / 2m bed is good for a carry a 1168 lb / 530 kgs load.

Options were limited to twin airbags, standard in some markets, ABS brakes and air conditioning on models fitted with petrol motors.

The Caddy Typ 9U was manufactured at Škoda’s Kvasiny plant in the Czech Republic from 1996 to 2004.
