Volkswagen revealed a facelifted version for Sharan's first generation in 2000, four years after the model's introduction.
When Ford and Volkswagen joined forces to produce a seven-seat minivan, the two carmakers shared platforms, parts, interiors, and engines. Over time, the German carmaker started to think that it should build the minivan under its own rules and design language, and the first changes appeared on the 2000 Sharan.
The bio-design era was at its dusk, and the new-edge-design was at its dawn. Volkswagen saw that and reshaped the headlights in a more angular style with sharp lines. The Sharan's grille resembled the one installed on the Passat with its four horizontal slats. Also, the steep hood and the lower bumper followed the same improved design, with straight angles and clear lines. At the back, there was a new design for the taillights.
Inside, Volkswagen installed a new dashboard heavily inspired by the Passat's fifth generation, with a half-round instrument cluster and identical dial layout. In the center stack, the carmaker made room for a new sound system and a small storage area. The car was now offered with seven seats as standard, with an option for six individual seats. Its second and third rows were folding and removable, resulting in a cavernous, van-like storage volume.
Under the hood, the German carmaker installed a new engine generation ranged between 90 hp and 204 hp. Depending on the version, the Sharan offered an option for a manual or an automatic transmission.
