The smallest Volkswagen is becoming yet more colourful and sharper still.
Late this summer the second series of the up! will be launched in Europe – with newly designed body panels, new colours, new wheels, new individualisation options, new equipment, a completely redesigned interior, a new infotainment system and an outstanding new engine that offers a significant boost in performance and torque.
The new 1.0 TSI engine available in thenew up! offers an efficient and engaging drive. This turbocharged direct petrol injection (TSI) delivers a powerful 88bhp and the maximum torque of 118lb/ft is available from 1,500 rpm. The three-cylinder engine is the first
turbo for the up! and the most powerful motor available in the model to date.
It delivers truly dynamic performance with a top speed of 115mph, and takes just 10 seconds to accelerate to 62mph. This up! even strives to match the driving performance of the first Golf GTI. Its dynamism is paired with high efficiency: the up! 1.0 TSI can cover almost 500 miles on a single tank of fuel.
Volkswagen is presenting the new version of the up! to the public for the first time at the Geneva Motor Show.
