The Routan (2009–2014) was Volkswagen's North American minivan, a rebadged and lightly restyled Chrysler Town & Country built for VW under a partnership with Chrysler.
It gave US dealers a minivan to sell but never matched the Chrysler/Dodge originals' sales, and fleet sales outlasted retail before it was dropped. Source note: Wikipedia "Volkswagen Routan" — retail through MY2013, fleet-only MY2014 (final); production ended July 2013.
