WOLFSBURG, 13-Jun-2017 — /EuropaWire/ — Volkswagen is now taking advance orders for the new special up! inspired by the Volkswagen Beetle ‘Special Bug’ from 1982. The new special edition model adopts several of the original’s details, making this latest addition to the up! family a truly eye-catching car. Prices for the special up! start in Germany from €13,625¹.

Volkswagen is offering the special edition model in two attractive colour combinations: firstly, in the image of the Beetle original, with exterior paintwork in black pearl combined with 17-inch alloys in sandstorm yellow. Secondly, Volkswagen is offering the special model in savanna gold with black ‘polygon’ alloy wheels. Both versions are emblazoned with ‘special’ on the vehicle exterior. As an additional contrast, the wing mirrors are finished in reflex silver or black.

Inside, too, the special up! has a number of highlights to offer. These include ambient lighting as standard, aluminium door tread plates sporting the word ‘up!’, heated seats and a black roof liner. The seat covers and dashpad are also available in savanna gold. The special up! in black pearl is priced from €13,625, while the version in savanna gold starts from €13,775.

In addition, the efficient eco special up!² with sustainable natural gas drive system (in combination with the black pearl version only) enriches the model range.
