Volkswagen has announced that it will be débuting the new cross up! in Geneva next month (March 7-17).

With a raised ride height, black wheel arch extensions and panelling along the flanks, the five-door cross up! portrays a bulkier, more rugged persona, and fits perfectly alongside the company’s CrossPolo, CrossGolf and CrossTouran. Other features include silver roof rails, mirror casings and bumpers sections, while the 16-inch five-double-spoke alloy wheels are also unique to this model.

Moving inside, past the embossed sill plates, customers can choose between red or grey seats in a special trim, with the dashpad available in red, black or dark silver. The steering wheel and handbrake handle are covered in leather, while the air vents and speedometer wear chrome surrounds.

Standard equipment consists of Electronic Stability Control (ESC), fog lamps, electric front windows and mirrors, remote control central locking, a tachometer and multifunction display.

Propelled by the 55 kW (75 hp) three-cylinder petrol engine combined with a 5-speed manual gearbox, it is slated to go on sale this summer.
