2009 Volkswagen Rabbit Overview

Introduction

The Volkswagen Rabbit is a quick, fun to drive hatchback with typical high level German refinement.

The Rabbit is available in two-door and four-door versions. The four-door comes with more standard equipment such as satellite radio, 6-disc changer, heated seats and velour trim. All models are powered by a 2.5-liter, inline five-cylinder engine that generates 170 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque that can be mated to either a five-speed manual transmission or six-speed automatic. Standard safety features on all models include anti-lock brakes, stability and traction control, tire pressure monitoring and six airbags.

For 2009, the 4-door is only available with the six-speed automatic transmission, and VW's new Carefree Maintenance Program has been added.
