No, that's a closeup -- check the other photos! They are pretty small, actually...

96mpg Combined!
BTW, the ABG article has the wrong conversion on the FE: 2.44L/100km = 96mpg Combined.

Looks like they are incorporating elements from the 1L.
Published l x w x h specs put Up within an inch or two of Metro specs. Sure looks lower in the pic though... the 18" wheels are going to make the proportions a bit different.
I like it... too bad it's a VW. That = overpriced and high maintenance.

A 48kW electrical drive from a company not known for its solid electrics. Hmm...

Is Bosch the maker of the hybrid system, or Volvo?
