1991 Volkswagen Fox Reviews, Pricing & Specs

The Volkswagen Fox received a minor redesign for 1991, with a reworked front end that included flush headlights. In addition, the Fox wagon, which had been offered from 1998 to 1990, was dropped from the lineup.

Only two versions were available for '91. The two-door base model and the four-door Fox GL were both equipped with an 81-horsepower, fuel-injected 1.8-liter engine. The two-door Fox came with a four-speed manual transmission, while the GL came with a five-speed manual.

The Fox was minimally equipped with bucket seats, power brakes, a rear window defroster, 13-inch wheels, and a full-size spare tire. Air conditioning and a cassette player were among the few options available.

The Fox was considered to be a reliable, economic car by most drivers. The car's transmission in particular was singled out as being particularly durable. With regular routine maintenance, drivers pointed out, the car could have a long life span.
