Take on the city in the lively and loveable up!

up! range (2016-2020)

Cute, yet punchy, this little hero has no idea how small it is, and that’s not surprising. Its drive, material choices, spaciousness and comfort all add up to something much bigger than the sum of its parts. In fact, it’s not until you try to squeeze into a tight parking space do you realize quite how wee you are. It’s true what they say, the best things really do come in small packages.

And, with five trims – Take up!, Move up! and High up! plus, up! Beats and up! GTI, you’re bound to find your perfect expression of this funky little urbanite.

Lithium-ion batteries, of the type used in most electric vehicles (including Volkswagen electric vehicles) have a restricted lifespan. Battery capacity will reduce over time, with use and charging. Reduction in battery capacity will affect the performance of the vehicle, including the range achievable, and is one of a number of factors that may impact resale value. New vehicle performance figures (including battery capacity and range) may be provided for the purposes of comparison between vehicles. You should not rely on new vehicle performance figures (including battery capacity and range), in relation to used vehicles with older batteries, as they will not reflect used vehicle performance in the real world. For further information on battery degradation/preservation and the Volkswagen 8 year/100,00 mile new car battery warranty, please see here. Exclusions and Warranty Terms Apply.
