Fits Volkswagen CADDY CARGO (2021-2026)

Brake pad compound

Street: quiet, low-dust, strong cold bite for road driving. Sport: higher temperature range and more bite for fast road and occasional track. Racing: maximum fade resistance for sustained track use (noisier and dustier cold). Match the pad to how hard you actually brake.

Disc size

Caliper grade

Hollow is the standard caliper: a lighter hollow-body forged caliper with a dust cover and a 5-year warranty. Hollow Racing drops the dust cover for sustained high-temperature use (rated to 1000°C, 2-year warranty) — the track-grade choice.

Caliper colour

Painted colours are included. Polished-forged finishes are mirror-polished forged calipers (Titanium, Gold, Silver); candy colours are a deep, mirror-reflection paint. Both are premium upgrades — fuller detail further down the page.

Disc style

Drilled discs (cross-drilled holes) vent gas and water and look aggressive; slotted discs (surface grooves) wipe the pad face clean and resist fade under sustained hard use. Same price — choose on looks or how you drive.

Centre bell

The centre bell is the CNC-machined aluminium hat that joins the disc to the hub. Standard anodized is included; a two-tone bell adds an anodized accent ring in your choice of colour; titanium is the lightest, forged option.

Carbon-ceramic rotor

Carbon-ceramic rotors are a special-order track upgrade: far lighter than steel, fade-resistant at extreme temperatures and extremely long-lived. The price follows the disc size you choose above. The standard two-piece steel rotor is included.

XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit — Volkswagen CADDY CARGO (2021-2026) — 330 mm
330 mm

A loaded Caddy Cargo asks more of its front brakes than the badge suggests. The fifth-generation van sits on Volkswagen’s MQB architecture, the same underpinnings as the Golf, but it carries close to a tonne of payload behind a nose already weighted by the engine and gearbox. Stack delivery stops, long motorway descents and the occasional braked trailer onto the standard pads and discs, and heat builds faster than the factory front end was ever asked to shed it.

The XYZ Racing front big brake kit for the Volkswagen Caddy Cargo (2021-2026) replaces that setup with a larger, vented package built to run hot and stay consistent. It is aimed at the working van that does serious miles under serious weight: couriers, trades and fleet operators who feel the pedal go long by mid-afternoon.

What this brake kit does for your 2021-2026 Volkswagen Caddy Cargo

The change you notice first is a firmer, more predictable pedal when the van is loaded. A bigger two-piece floating front disc carries more thermal mass, so the brakes resist the fade that creeps in on repeat stops and long loaded descents, the situations where a hard-worked Caddy Cargo punishes its front axle most. Three pad compounds let you match the kit to the duty cycle: Street for mixed light use and low dust, Sport for heavier urban stop-start running, and Racing for the most demanding sustained high-load work. Shorter, more repeatable stopping distances when the van is fully freighted translate directly into confidence on a busy route. The two-piece floating disc helps vent heat and trims a little unsprung weight at the front wheels.

About the Hollow front brake kit

The kit is XYZ Racing’s upgrade for the leading axle, pairing an oversized two-piece floating front disc with a larger fixed caliper to increase clamping area and thermal capacity over the standard floating-caliper arrangement the Caddy Cargo leaves the factory with. The caliper body is a hollow casting as standard, keeping unsprung mass down; an optional Hollow Racing version rated to 1000C, with a two-year warranty and no dust cover, is there for the hardest-working vans. Pad choice spans three compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, so a single hardware set can be tuned from everyday van duty through to hard, repeated high-load braking. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and a two-tone anodized or titanium centre bell can be added at checkout. The emphasis is on heat management and consistency under load rather than aggressive cold bite, which suits a vehicle that brakes often and brakes heavy.

Fitment for the Volkswagen Caddy Cargo (2021-2026)

This kit is built for the fifth-generation Volkswagen Caddy Cargo across the 2021-2026 model years and fits the front axle as a pair of left and right corners, pairing with the van’s existing rear brakes. Confirm your exact build year when you order, as front hardware can vary across a model run this long.

Choosing your spec

Every kit is built to order around the choices you make above. Here is what each option actually changes, so you can spec yours with confidence.

Brake pads — Street, Sport or Racing

Every kit ships with a full set of high-performance pads; the compound is your call.

Street is the right default for fast-road driving — a strong, progressive cold bite with low noise, low dust and long disc life. Sport raises the working temperature and adds bite and fade resistance for hard road use and the occasional track day, while still behaving on a cold morning. Racing is a track compound built for sustained abuse: huge fade resistance and bite once heat is in it, at the cost of more noise and dust when cold. Match the pad to how hard you actually use the brakes — there is no benefit to a race pad that never gets up to temperature.

Caliper grade — Hollow vs Hollow Racing

Hollow is the standard caliper on every kit: a hollow-body forged caliper, lighter than a solid one, fitted with a dust cover and backed by a 5-year oil-leak warranty. For most fast-road and spirited track use it is all the caliper you need.

Hollow Racing is the track-grade upgrade. It runs the same hollow body but without a dust cover (so there is nothing to melt at sustained high temperature), uses a twin-metal piston that isolates heat travelling from the disc to the oil seal, and is rated to 1000°C. Available 286–380mm (front). Warranty is 2 years on oil leaks and 10 years on appearance. Built for professional racing and repeated track days.

Caliper colour & finish

Painted colours (Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, Anodized Black) are included at no cost. Want an exact match to your car? Custom Color (+£150) paints the calipers to any Pantone code you supply (15–20 day lead time).

Polished Forged finishes are the flagship: a forged caliper given a mirror-polished surface treatment that shifts colour with the viewing angle. Beyond the looks, the polished surface dissipates heat better, resists rust and stands up to the weather. Choose Titanium (neochrome, +£350), Polished Gold (+£300) or Polished Silver (+£250). They look their best paired with a titanium centre bell. Care: clean only with a dilute neutral cleaner or water.

Candy colours (+£200) use a deep candy-paint and polishing process for a mirror-reflection, boutique finish — pick Teal, Blue, Red or Orange (shown below right).

Centre bells

The centre bell is the CNC-machined aluminium hat that joins the disc to the hub. The standard anodized centre bell is included. The Two-tone bell (+£200) adds an anodized accent ring — choose Red, Yellow, Orange, Purple or Silver right here at checkout. The Titanium centre bell (+£500) is a forged titanium bell (bolts not included) that finishes off the polished-forged look.
