What I find interesting is that there is SERIOUS talk something based on the Up! platform could not only be sold here in the USA, but possibly manufactured here in the USA, too. I'd buy one if they fit in a small 1.3-liter clean turbodiesel rated at around 90-95 bhp but with a high torque peak on a car that might weigh around 2,200 pounds in US-legal form.

VW is collaborating with Apple so I would not be surprised at all if the computer touch screen was powered by Mac OSX.

Chrysler/Daimler sold plenty of PT Cruisers in South Nevada before they shut it down. And I have seen a few Scion Boxes.

VW says it has a motor, but what is it? Two stroke, air cooled?
