According to the official classification, automobile transport is conditionally divided into categories according to different criteria. These include the body type, type and size of the engine, functional purpose and so on. At the same time, gender separation is almost never found. Nevertheless, such a car as the Volkswagen Lupo is difficult to attribute to any other category than “ladies' toy on wheels”. Compared to other representatives of the German manufacturer's model range, this car stands out primarily for its appearance. We are talking about such seemingly insignificant nuances as the headlights made in the form of “beautiful eyes”, a non-aggressive exterior, as well as an unusual beautiful interior, in which there are a large number of original and simple chips. Do not forget about the size of the car, because its length is only 3.53 meters.
Salon
In the interior of the Volkswagen Lupo model, everything seems to be filled with love and tenderness, which once again emphasizes the purpose of the car to the female sex. The upholstery uses light-colored material, which is diluted with cheerful inserts. The use of wide glasses by designers allowed to visually increase the space. It is possible to feel spacious in Volkswagen Lupo only in one case - when only two people are in the car at a time. When moving the front seats back and forth, as well as folding their backs, the rear passengers feel a certain discomfort. On the other hand, children feel quite normal here. The main drawback that is felt in the car's interior is the lack of climate control.
Driving performance
The main thing that Volkswagen-Lupo boasts is its driving characteristics. First of all, we are talking about the high efficiency of the machine. For every 100 km run, the car requires only 3 liters of fuel. This indicator allows the driver not to think about the need for refueling, even on the condition of a long journey over a long distance. The Volkswagen-Lupo engine has four gasoline varieties, the power of which is in the range from 50 to 125 horsepower, as well as two diesel engines for 60 and 75 horses. Cars with the top version of the engine (1.6-liter “four” for 125 hp) can accelerate from zero to “hundreds” in just 8.3 seconds. At the same time, the maximum speed of the car is 170 km / h. Such good driving characteristics are also achieved due to the low weight of the car.
findings
Be that as it may, Volkswagen Lupo can be safely called a high-quality car . Extra proof of this is the galvanization of the body and a twelve-year guarantee on it against corrosion, provided by the manufacturer. Even when driving with open windows, the noise of the running engine and other extraneous sounds in the cabin are practically inaudible. Excellent ventilation inside is due largely to well-designed aerodynamics. In general, the model is comfortable, economical and purely female. A small number of such cars on domestic roads can only be explained by advertising miscalculations of German marketers.
