Skoda Roomster (5J)
Compact MinivanProduct Gallery
Product Overview
Skoda Roomster (Typ 5J) is an entry-level subcompact minivan in production from 2006 to 2015. It was available with a range of inline-3 and inline-4 engines that displaced 1.2 to 1.9 liters.
Marketed as a "leisure activity vehicle", the Roomster has strange cabin design that nonetheless maximizes the greenhouse, making it a less claustrophobic place to sit in. Unsurprisingly, VW used its bottom barrel parts but marked up the Skoda as something unique.
