      Since the Volkswagen Up! lacked the heavy camouflage as witnessed in the other models of the company, it is anticipated that the launch of this trendy city car in the Indian market is still not on the cards. The display of this undisguised car may also be intended for estimating the public reaction and the price range of Volkswagen Up! in India.

      The car spotted on Pune roads hosted a right hand drive system and the spy shots indicate incorporation of premium interiors. However, Volkswagen has remained tight-lipped about its Indian launch as for the Indian market; the car will be positioned as an expensive model in the cost competitive segment.

      The basic trim version of Up! does not equip alloys, body coloured door handles, power mirrors and wind up windows and this version is christened as ‘Take Up’ in the U.K market. Volkswagen Up! is considered as the cheapest entry level car among the brand’s global portfolio.

      Volkswagen Up!, currently available in the international market is equipped with three-cylinder engine mated aptly with five-speed manual gearbox to deliver two range of power - 59bhp and 74bhp. With furnishing of superior quality on the interiors and excelling European technology at its heart, the Volkswagen Up! will be designed to attract buyers in India. Moreover, its launch India will be initiated once the car sheds down its premium attributes for the cost conscious Indian buyers.
