The 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit comes in two trim levels, a 2-door coupe and a 4-door sedan which are powered by a 2.5 150 hp 5-cylinder engine with a choice of either a 5-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic transmission. The automakers at Volkswagen introduced the first Rabbit in 1975 and from there it flourished until 1984. Its revival is interpreted as a needed shot in the arm for Volkswagen in terms of a small, cheap, fun little car.

The interior of the 2007 Rabbit is well-constructed with its parts fitting together cleanly and seats comfortable. Even with its economy classification the 2007 Rabbit has standard equipment such as: radio, CD, multiple airbags, AC, throttle control, non-skid brakes, and traction moderator. For a little extra, you get color matched bumpers and door handles, moonroof, and t-bone omental airbags.

With the aforementioned airbags, the 2007 Rabbit also adds the following features: fully independent suspension, anti-theft, 60/40 split fold-down rear seat, and remote entry. The Rabbit ride is characterized as forgiving, with good handling and smooth acceleration. There is surprisingly little noise in the cockpit, and the passenger room is plentiful.

Owners of the 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit will enjoy the generous fuel economy numbers in the range of: 22 mpg city, 30 mpg highway. The Rabbit is a fun, peppy, inexpensive car. Just what Volkswagen needs right now. It will supply a niche that its competitors are trying to fill with the Nissan Versa, Honda Civic, and Toyota Corolla. We all think Volkswagen has come up with a great idea in the 2007 Rabbit, a fuel efficient remake of an old-school favorite.
