Orders for the new street-wise Volkswagen up! models started today ahead of the first scheduled deliveries in March. The Street up! and Club up! mini cars arrive with fuel-efficient characteristics, convenient form and satisfying equipment.
Both cars take their power from the up!’s most powerful 1.0-litre petrol engine which produces 75 PS at 6,200 rpm. The three-cylinder engine is mated to a five-speed manual gearbox. It returns 60.1 mpg on the combined cycle and emits 108 g/km of CO2. Lastly, the two compact automobiles produce a maximum torque of 95 Nm (70 lbs ft) between 3,000 and 4,300 rpm.
