Why has the Volkswagen Sharan been discontinued?

[SanJoshua]

Volkswagen Sharan has only ceased production but not sales. Basic information about the Volkswagen Sharan: Model Configuration: In contrast to the current trend of digitalized cabins, the Sharan features a manually adjustable driver's seat, a single-disc CD player, and non-independently controlled rear air conditioning. For an MPV priced at nearly 400,000 yuan, the surface-level configurations might seem somewhat unconvincing. Compared to its American, Japanese, and Korean counterparts in the same class, the Sharan's price is undoubtedly higher. Interior Introduction: The Sharan adopts a 2+3+2 seating arrangement, so there is no central aisle for third-row passengers to enter and exit. Although the vehicle width exceeds 1.8 meters, the slightly inward-curving arc design affects shoulder and headroom to some extent when carrying multiple passengers. However, for an MPV measuring 4.6 meters in length, the Sharan's space utilization is already quite good. Additionally, the rear air vents are extremely discreet, designed as panel-mounted units where cold air spreads from foot-level ducts throughout the cabin. Despite the absence of overhead air vents, the cooling performance is excellent.
