In the European electric vehicle market, Volkswagen e-up! With the trendy appearance, outstanding product strength and good cost performance, it is popular with consumers after listing, and gradually becomes one of the best-selling electric vehicles in the German market, and even surpasses tesla Model 3 in the pure electric vehicle market, and is also the sales responsibility of the family. However, the good times were not long, due to the low profit of Volkswagen e-up and the limited production capacity, and finally Volkswagen officially announced the suspension of the model.
With the excessive demand for cheap electric vehicles in many EU countries, a number of German media have exposed the internal communication between Volkswagen and dealers, which shows that Volkswagen is about to restart Volkswagen e-up! project and relaunch e-up! Booking procedures. This is another new option for consumers who have a demand for pure electric mini cars, which is indeed a good thing. However, the price will rise, from about 22,000 euros to 26,500 euros.
As you can see from the appearance, the volkswagen e-up! The front face part adopts the Han's family design, and it can be seen from the picture that the appearance of this model is basically the same as that of the old model, and the horizontal strip forward grille is matched with more traditional LED daytime running lights, making the entire front of the car look slightly cute.
E-up from Volkswagen! As can be seen from the side, the body contour continues the square shape, the sharp body waistline extends from the front fenders consistently backwards, and the large rear window allows the rear passengers to get a better visual experience.
Come to the tail, Volkswagen e-up! It is particularly simple, and the addition of the narrow and thin strip tail lamp design highlights its distinctive style, and the internal structure of the light group is more complex, and the recognition is higher after lighting.
In terms of size, according to the information previously exposed, the Volkswagen e-up that resumed production! In terms of length, width, and wheelbase, the data is consistent with the old models, and although the overall appearance is more compact than the Volkswagen ID.3, it is very suitable for urban short-distance transportation.
In the design layout of the interior, volkswagen e-up! Also continuing the design layout of the old model, the cabin still maintains many traditional function buttons, the damping sense is quite good, and it is indeed not enough for modern consumers.
But what is more confusing is that the public e-up! Due to cost constraints, the seats in the car are even woven with fabric, but for consumers with limited budgets, I believe they will not care too much.
In terms of the motivation that has attracted the attention of consumers, although the public has not officially announced e-up! Detailed data, but indications are that the car will be upgraded in terms of power. In terms of endurance, the car will be equipped with a 32.3 kWh battery pack, WLTP range of 260km, and support the maximum power of 40kW charging pile for charging, charging from 0 to 80% in just one hour.
For domestic public fans, perhaps the most interested in the public e-up! Whether to introduce domestic sales in a joint venture way, but according to the current market environment, buy and buy Jun believes that the public e-up! The possibility of introducing the domestic market is minimal.
After all, in the domestic pure electric car market, volkswagen brand ID.3 and e-up! The overlapping price of models undoubtedly forms an infighting pattern, which is the last thing Volkswagen wants to see. Secondly, there are many competitors in the pure electric mini car market, and models led by Wuling Hongguang MINI EV are generally recognized by domestic consumers, and the price advantage is also the head of the German system. Volkswagen and its introduction of e-up! Models, it is better to reduce the price of its ID.3 models and exchange price for volume.
Volkswagen e-up! The comeback of the Volkswagen family has further improved the product matrix of pure electric cars. Buy buy Jun believes that this model is an important part of the Volkswagen pure electric family, its birth is to break the tradition of the product, then, its sales can be as hot as the old model, may wish to let us wait and see.
