Volkswagen Up! Ready for 2012
Published Monday, 15 November, 2010 by Fletcher Jones Volkswagen. Categories: News.
World Car Fans is starting to learn new details about the 2012 Volkswagen Up! A recent report states the concept vehicle will be introduced as a production model during next year's Frankfurt Motor Show in Germany.
Drawing inspiration from the concept (a vehicle that debuted at the 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show) VW's production model will be a three-door hatchback with seating for up to four people. If that sounds a little bit small for your tastes, Up will eventually produce a sedan, five-door hatchback and even a MPV.
Power will likely be a provided by a wide variety of three-cylinder engines - including a 1.0-liter petrol, a 1.2-liter TSI with 84 horsepower, and a 1.2-liter diesel with 74 horsepower. As previewed by the e-Up concept, an electric-only version will also be available somewhere down the line.
The three-door Up! is expected to hit European showrooms in late 2011, with possible American production coming further on. Base price of the car is approximately ?10,000 ($13,900 USD). The e-Up will follow a year later, but pricing has yet to be released.
