VW Cross up! for Geneva

Volkswagen is expanding its range of Cross models with the Cross up! which will go on sale in Europe from late summer, writes Trish Whelan.

It will join the CrossPolo, CrossGolf and Cross Touran models.

Cross models are individualised Volkswagen models with a particularly rugged design and tough, lifestyle qualities. Black mouldings on the wheel arches and sills, plus full-length door protector strips topped with 'Cross up!' lettering create a sporty look on this latest model.

A 75hp three-cylinder petrol engine combined with a five-speed manual transmission serve as the power train.
