The Volkswagen Up (stylized as Volkswagen up!) is a city car produced by the Volkswagen Group from 2011 to 2023. It was unveiled at the 2011 International Motor Show Germany (IAA).[8] Production of the Up started with the model year of 2012, in December 2011 at the Volkswagen Plant in Bratislava, Slovakia.[9] It is part of the New Small Family (NSF) series of models, alongside the SEAT Mii and Škoda Citigo which are rebadged versions of the Up, with slightly different front and rear fascias. The SEAT and Škoda versions were manufactured in the same factory,[10] before being withdrawn from sale in 2021 and 2020 respectively. Production of the Up ended in October 2023.[11] A battery electric version, called E-up, was launched in autumn 2013.
