"Low operating costs, high quality of workmanship and a decent driving experience make the Volkswagen up! Recommended a simple city car."
The Volkswagen up! is one of the best city cars on the market, the same feeling of quality that offers you in getting the larger Volkswagen Polo and Volkswagen Golf, while taking on the road no more space than a Fiat 500. On the whole, the same as his Skoda Citigo and SEAT Mii sisters, it costs around £ 500 more, but the added attraction of the VW logo is worth noting that for many.
Aside from his rivals from the VW Group, but also strong competition from the Toyota Aygo faces, Peugeot 108 and Citroen C1, another set of nearly identical triplets. There is also the Kia Picanto and Hyundai i10, not to forget, the Fiat 500, but the above! was up-to-date and its mix of practicality kept and build quality to drive as well as a fun and a good price-performance ratio, it is to keep at the top of the pack.

The up! can as a three or five-door, the extra pair of doors £ 400 to the price selected and both versions seating add up to four people. This is the situation with most city cars, although the Hyundai i10 is rarely a third rear seatbelt with.
There are no available diesel engine, but the two gasolines are economical and fit the type of car. There are 59 or 74bhp versions of a 1.0-liter engine available, but are not limited to the more efficient choice to the more expensive trim levels. can return the 59bhp version 62.8mpg and the more powerful engine is only about a mile per gallon less efficient. Either engine costs just £ 20 per year in road tax.
Running costs can be made even lower when you pay an extra £ 300 benefit from Volkswagen to use BlueMotion technology. Economy improves by another 6mpg and CO2 emissions that the drop to such a low level! is road tax free, but the performance is not affected. Finally, there is also an electric version, VOLKSWAGEN e-up! That we have analyzed separately. It offers all the environmental benefits of each electric car, but it costs more than twice as much as the buying up! Petrol.
The 59bhp version takes 14.4 seconds to complete the 0-62mph sprint. Our favorite is the 74bhp version, especially with the standard manual transmission. Not only that, its acceleration time to come to 13.2 seconds, but the extra power makes the car to go far perkier and more fun.
A recent addition to the above! Range s a 1.0-liter turbocharged petrol engine with 89bhp engine, provide a little more power, but only in conjunction with a manual transmission. An ASG automatic set for non-turbo engines are available, but we find it a little choppy to use, and it does not "creep" system as normal automatic, so it may be difficult to pull away smoothly at low speeds.
, the small dimensions of the up! make it fantastic in the city. It is quite narrow, it is the closest road to squeeze down to help, and it is not very long, so parking is a breeze. It does not feel completely out of depth on the open road either, always stable and seemed to settle down fairly quiet, comfortable and smooth at speed.

The interior of the up! is well built and the layout is logical. You can choose up to 14 different colors for the dashboard, although some of them are only on the more expensive trim levels.
The actual range structure is a bit confusing now that VW released a series of delightfully named special editions. As always is the simplest description Take up!, Named, which is relatively thin equipped to be with DAB radio the only remarkable feature. Next comes the Move up! for around £ 1,000 more, with remote control, electric front windows and a folding rear seat. Our favorite is the high up!, The front seats heated inserts, a satellite navigation system and a set of stylish 15-inch alloy wheels, as well as some upgrades for the interior. Most importantly, it is the stronger 74bhp engine available, which makes the top! so much easier with day to day living.
Since the beginning of these versions were joined by the look up! (With 59bhp engine) and the Club up!, Road! and rock-up! Models (with 74bhp). Each has its own unique blend of style and special equipment.
It is interesting to look at the performance of the above! if. to customer satisfaction Our 2016 Driver Power survey took 150 different cars and up! finished in a uninspired 111. Place. However, came the virtually identical Skoda Citigo (built on the same production line) 11 that that the two cars were different selected customers due to the different expectations of VW and Skoda could mean.
security, though, and certainly not in question, as the Volkswagen up! carries the reassurance of a five-star rating by the independent Euro NCAP crash test. Meanwhile, the car warranty runs for three years or 60,000 miles -. Rather less generous than the five-year / unlimited mileage policy from Hyundai get
