What the Volkswagen Routan sticker says about fuel

Fuel economy is a legally required block on every Monroney label — city, highway and combined figures plus the estimated annual fuel bill. These are the EPA numbers on file for the Routan, latest tested year 2014:

The label also prints an estimated $3,100 a year in fuel at 15,000 miles, and 459 g/mi of CO₂. EPA files the Routan under Minivan - 2WD, which is the class it gets compared against on the sticker.

How the Routan's sticker figure changed

Combined MPG printed on the label, model year by model year — 2009 to 2014. Worth checking before you compare a Routan sticker from one year with another:

The figure has stayed broadly flat across the span. EPA revised its testing method in 2008, which shifts figures printed before and after that year.

What's on the Volkswagen Routan sticker

Every Monroney label carries the same required blocks: MSRP with itemised options, EPA fuel economy — for this car 20 mpg combined, NHTSA safety ratings, standard and optional equipment, and parts-content origin. Every Routan VIN returns its own build rather than a generic spec.

For how to read each block, what to do if the sticker is lost, and how it differs from a build sheet, see the window sticker guide.

Where to find the VIN on a Volkswagen Routan

  1. WindshieldLower-left corner, driver's side, readable from outside without opening anything.
  2. Door jambOn the driver's door frame of every Routan, next to the tyre-pressure and build-date plate.
  3. DocumentsRegistration, title and insurance card — on a Volkswagen Routan all three must show the same number.

All four must match. A Volkswagen Routan whose windshield plate disagrees with the door jamb has either had a panel replaced or a tampered identity — check the paperwork before any money changes hands.

Window sticker — frequently asked

What MPG does the Volkswagen Routan window sticker show?

The EPA figures on file are 20 mpg combined (17 city / 25 highway), from its 2014 rating, with an estimated $3,100 a year in fuel printed alongside.

Is the recreated Volkswagen Routan sticker the same as the original?

It rebuilds the factory equipment, EPA fuel economy and NHTSA safety from official records, so the core Monroney content matches. Dealer-added options and destination charges vary by sale, so the printed total on one Volkswagen Routan may differ from another.

Where do I find the VIN on a Volkswagen Routan?

Lower-left of the windshield, the driver's door-jamb sticker, or the registration and insurance documents — all three must agree. For what a window sticker is, how to read each block and what to do if yours is lost, see the window sticker guide.
