The VW up! replaced the Fox in Europe in 2011 and has represented Volkswagen in the microcar segment since then. Built primarily in Bratislava, it was initially offered with three doors only, but can now also be purchased with five. Customers can choose from three equipment lines: take up!, move up! and high up! There are also special models such as the black up! and the white up!, both of which are fitted with 16-inch VW up rims. The three-cylinder petrol motor that comes in the up! model supplies between 60 and 75 HP.
A further variant is the e-up!, whose electric drive system consumes 11,7 kWh per 100 km/60 miles and is designed to cover 160km/99 miles when fully charged. Top speeds of 130km/81 miles are possible - more than sufficient for its intended city-dwelling customer base. It offers space for three adults and a children, althought both the interior of the car and the boot space (less than 100 litres) are somewhat small. The standard version - which isn't required to accommodate a battery - has a larger boot capacity of around 250 litres. Whichever VW up! you drive, you'll find the right VW up rims for you on mytyres.co.uk. Browse our comprehensive range from the comfort of your living room - our website will even "virtually mount" your chosen rims on your vehicle for you to help you make the right decision.
