Frankfurt Preview: VW to unveil super-frugal fuel sipper

 The VAG has developed a fearsome reputation for cutting edge engineering and their TSI range of engine families is setting fuel economy benchmark globally.

It should come as no surprise that they plan to show off a ground breaking single-seater fuel economy record breaker.

The aim is to break the performance parameters set by the XL1 concept that achieved three litres per 100 kilometre.

My bet is on VW producing this new concept car or something based on it within five years

REVEALED: Production version of VW Up bares all before Frankfurt

Production car retains most of the concept's look and feel

The production version of VW Up, Wolfburg's interpretation of the K-car is  looking very good with clean lines, nice proportions and the usual neat detailing that the VAG group is well known for
This is the concept version and in my opinion the production car is more pleasing to look at.
