2017 VW Up! (UK)
After revealing their restyled up! city
car at the end of last month, VW have now released full pricing & specs for
UK buyers.
Order books are set to open today (July
21) at VW retailers nationwide, where £ 8,995 (RRP OTR) will land you an
entry-level 60 PS Take up! 1.0-liter 3-door manual version.
Aside from its subtly revised exterior
design, the up! will be available with a new 90 PS 1.0-liter TSI turbocharged
engine (available to order in August), extra equipment as standard, more
exterior colors (13 instead of 10), decals and roof colors as well as plenty of
interior personalization options.
Buying into the up! range means that
you'll first come across the previously mentioned Take up! spec, which is
available with the 'Composition' infotainment system, remote central locking,
electric front windows and driver's seat height adjustment. In other words,
buyers will be getting these features for free where otherwise they would need
to spend around £ 465 - as was the case with the previous model.
Next in line is the Move up! spec which
adds 15" alloys, a color infotainment touchscreen with the 'Composition
Phone' system and Bluetooth connectivity. Add that to the four additional
speakers and you've got an extra £ 780's worth of equipment at no additional
cost.
The High up! on the other hand gets
different 15" alloys, sat-nav and ambient lighting mounted in the dash,
while the up! Beats boasts a powerful 300-watt seven-speaker sound system, plus
a subwoofer in the boot. It also has Beats graphics, badges and a 3D dashpad
design.
Among its 13 exterior paint options, the
up! features seven brand new ones including 'Costa Azul', 'Honey Yellow' and
'Savanna Gold'. The roof however can be colored separately thanks to the new
Roof Pack - available in either black, white or 'Urano Grey'.
