Description
Class-leading build quality Ideal for young drivers or those with a keen eye on value for money, the Up promises to combine Volkswagen levels of quality with city car running costs and convenience. Features such as air-con, Bluetooth and USB phone connectivity and a 5.0-inch colour infotainment screen are all standard. Every Volkswagen Up (apart from the E-Up and GTI) comes with a 1.0-litre three-cylinder petrol engine that produces 65hp. All are capable of propelling the Up around town nicely, though the basic petrol engine isn't ideal for motorway driving. Fuel economy is good with over 50mpg possible even in the GTI. Measuring up at 3.6 metres long and a shade over 1.9 metres wide, the Volkswagen Up is one of the smallest cars on sale today. However, there's still enough room for four adults (there's only two seats in the back), plus the boot space is up there with the best in class.
