The Volkswagen Sharan is a seven-seater minivan produced by the Volkswagen Group across two generations from 1995 to 2022. It was developed in cooperation with Ford, shown as a concept alongside the Ford Galaxy at the 1994 Paris Auto Show, and built at the AutoEuropa plant in Palmela, Portugal, with production starting in May 1995. Volkswagen also sold a rebadged version as the SEAT Alhambra. Engines included petrol units and TDI diesels, and from June 2006 a 2.0 litre version that could run on either petrol or autogas. The cooperation with Ford ended in 2006, when Ford went on alone to build the second generation Galaxy, and Volkswagen later sold a badge-engineered Chrysler minivan as the Routan in North America.
