The rabbit runs forever, is great on gas, and handles well in the rain and snow
My car is a 2 door hatchback. It is white on the outside with grey interior. The radio has good sound and the seat warmer is heaven in winter. You can put the back seat down and extend the trunk area. It's also nice that when trunk is closed you see what is in there. Great size for parking also

Minor electrical issues but overall excellent daily driver
Great car, very smooth ride. Handles very well, not many mechanical problem. Alternator has failed twice in the 5 years I've owned, other than that this has been an excellent car for daily driving and having the occasional day of fun. Great acceleration for small hatchback

Sport mode makes the car go faster which is nice.
Great all around vehicle with good mileage and I recommend it for younger users. I think it's a great first time buyers. Its pretty quick and includes sport mode which gives a little more boost. Haven't had much problems with it and it seems to be pretty reliable through the first 2 years of ownership.

Great, fun, sporty little family car.
Great pick up. Plenty of space in the hatchback. Fuel economy is decent. Car drives like a sports car. Can fit two adults and two kids comfortably. Heated seats are nice in winter. Good handling in all weather. Great stereo system. Rust develops on wheel wells, but the wells are relatively inexpensive to replace.

It performs like a race car.
It is solidly built and requires only routine maintenance. This car has never required major repairs.

Basic vehicle that is built to last.
I have had very few problems with this vehicle. Structurally it is amazing. Everything feels like it is built to last. I wish there were more up-to-date features though as it was a rather basic model. The seats are quite roomy even for a person who is tall. I am 6’4 and am very comfortable.

Pros and cons: Volkswagen Rabbit
The car has a loud exhaust and the tires don't have enough friction so there's a chance that it will slide a lot during the winter. I do like the heating and cooling system. During the summer, the AC works fairly quickly. The car also has seat warmers to use during the winter.

Very reliable, great gas mileage.
It is a safe and small car. It gets decent gas mileage and has an engine that is bigger for the size of car it is, so it is punchy. It is easy to use and I like it.

Volkswagen rabbit, the perfect little car, with plenty of room inside.
When I first bought my car, I had bought it used. I had to put parts into it, as regular work would come into it. My car does not perform all that much, but my 2.5l engine is very reliable. It is comfortable, and easy and fun to drive. I love the vehicle. It is a smooth ride and typically does not have any issues. I have only had to do a couple things, other than the mechanical work. It is a lot of cosmetic work. When I first test drove my car. I was instantly in love with the car and couldn't wait to drive it. The car has power when you need it as well. I love my car.

It drives smooth. It is the smoothest driving car I have ever owned.
It smokes when driving long distances. It is hard to find mechanics that will work on it. Maintenance is more expensive.

How much damage has been done to motor and inside of engine.
Great on gas, very easy to handle on road that aren't wet , a little to small for being a family car.

Great small car for commuting and around town!
This has been a very reliable vehicle. I have had few repairs needed, other than replacement tires, lights, and windshield wipers. There was one recall which required a software download. I like the size and feel of the car. There is nothing that I dislike.

09 Volkswagen rabbit with manual/automatic option.
I love my rabbit, I haven't had any issues with it. It's bigger than it looks on the inside, its fast and reliable. The only thing I wish I had was Bluetooth capabilities but the auxiliary cable works just as well. I really enjoy the option of manual or automatic.

Brakes were recalled on the 2009 model. Otherwise always reliable.
Very reliable sporty car. Great value for money. Small 2-door but very comfortable inside. Can fit 4 people including driver. Good engine to body ratio. Very good gas-mileage ratio

Fuel efficient and lasts a long time
Love how it has lasted over 100k miles with almost no repairs needed. Love how spacious the cargo area is.

It's great on gas, I fill the tank prob every week and a half and it cost me about 30$
It's small but perfect size for me. It's great on gas and has given very little trouble

Volkswagen Rabbit overall Review
The car is quite comfortable and smooth to drive. If you're a tall person like myself ( 5'9 ) you wouldn't have to worry about your head bumping to the roof of the car. When it comes to the back seat there can be a bit of a problem if you have multiple people sitting behind you, Due to the space. For example I cannot have anyone as tall as me sitting behind because I'll be too close to the steering wheel and my legs will be a safety hazard since I will be too close to the pedals as well. The sports isn't as loud as other models, very smooth transition as well.

My car is very roomy and comfortable for long road trips.
One thing I like is it's size. It seats five comfortably but also has plenty of room to transport large items or large amounts of items. It also gets very good gas mileage. I have no complaints about my car.

Very fun to drive, quick and handles like a dream.
Wonderful car, fast comfortable. Started falling apart when I paid it off. Keeping it since I love it so.
accountCircle Nimmie A on October 29, 2018
Its never let me down, and it's running as good as the day we drove off the lot.
It's a good car with good mileage and it's been reliable as far as durability goes. Wouldn't mind some more room for cargo but it's not what the car was bought for.

Reliable car! Good on gas!
This car offers a pretty comfortable ride, it is sporty but still chic. I liked the ability to have a hatchback, this makes moving large items a lot easier. It has pretty decent gas mileage, personally I only had to fill my tank up about every two weeks, give or take.
