Recently unveiled Volkswagen Up! heads for an early launch in Europe

Volkswagen eyes to become the number one car manufacturer by 2020 and to fulfil its dream the auto giant is keen to carve a niche for tiself in the small car segment. The Volkswagen UP! could be ace card it hopes to deliver for a start. Though, nothing could be said about the Volkswgen Up! launch in India at the moment, the the Europe launch is much sooner, meant for this year itself, that too no later than the first quarter with the Volkswagen Up price of 10,325 Euros. The compact five door hatchback has the potential to deflate the balloon out of the air with the powerful impact it is set to create. The car is not only an eye-candy meant to be easy on eye but literally fraught with features and an amazing potential.
