I currently own a Up! 1.0 75hp and I have to say that this thing is like a Go cart arround the city and feels preety stable on highway aswell! More than pleased with it! Good to know it can handle 170+ even though i will never push it that far😃😃👀🙆🏻♂️. Great video!
Hey man, I'm planning to buy this car but what concerns me is that it has only 95 Nm. How well does it go uphill? I had a 2011 VW Polo 1.2 (60hp and 108 Nm) and it was a nightmare.
@@agram4700 I have a big hill near my house and it gets up just fine but it depends on the rpm of course. With 2k rpm and gear 4 or 5 it wont accelerate up the hill but in lower gears its fine. Basically you might need to downshift before going up hill but I haven't found this to be a big problem as I drive with a heavy foot. My town is known for how many roundabouts it has and all the roads are dual or single carriageway. I drive everywhere pretty much full throttle to get up to the speed limit of 60 or 70 and then have to break as soon as it gets there for another roundabout, because of this my mpg is quite poor its about 37 maybe. If you are set on the vw up try and get the tsi model instead it will be much punchier, otherwise just drive it like its stolen and you'll be fine lol.
@iNSTAGiB Hey, I ended up going in a completely different direction and bought a 2016 Ford Focus 1.0 ecoboost 100hp. It's not as practicle as the Up, but I absolutely love it!
@iNSTAGiB The newer models are really good looking, and the 1.0 tsi engine has the best reputation of all tsi engines so it should run fine for at least 150 000km. You should also consider Škoda Fabia. Polo/Ibiza/Fabia are practicaly the same car, but I wouldn't buy the Polo (same as the others but with a more premium price). Good luck with your search!
I own a VW up! 60 hp in the basic "take up" config, which is a few pounds lighter and it is quite zippy for just 60 horses. Exactly one second slower than the up! shown here. Great little car, perfect for the daily commute to work.
I drive a 2014 5 door up and I live in glasgow, it’s an amazing city car but if you are in a rush and on the motorway going over about 80mph it feels so understandable and too light but when you get to about 100mph it settles down. I think it’s probably all in my head but yeah, it’s scary taking a vw up that fast.
Ich habe auch ein UP! 60ps und fahre damit jeden Tag zur Arbeit. Eine Rakete ist er ja nicht gerade aber dafür erreicht er bei mir jeden Tag 160 kmh ("angenehme" Reisegeschwindigkeit ;D). Mit dem verbauten FOX-Exhaust Auspuff gnurrt er schon ganz schön. :D
@@AbdurRahman-rs8em ich fahre jeden Tag 70 km. Seit dem der Sprit so teuer ist aber nur noch 140kmh. Für mich reicht es. Man muss beim Up! Halt etwas Schwung holen bevor man überholt aber ansonsten reicht er für alles.
@@BehindtheWheelNL aha aso vielen Dank für die Info 👀. In 5ten hattest koi Lust dazu um den Motor ein wenig zu schonen gee. Trotzdem super gefahren, so wie ich wo ich noch ein Auto hatte.
the reason he shifts late is bcs he needs to use the full gear to reach max rpm aka get up to speed quicker, not the best for fuel saving but the dude's on the autobahn and he needs to show speed if he put in 5th at 100 km as the up suggests he would take waay longer to reach 170
Hab zwei mal durchgedrückt auf einer fast leeren Strecke, kam auf 180km/h mit dem kleinen Flitzer 75PS. Laut anzeige, aber da kann man sowieso bissle was runter nehmen und wahrscheinlich half der Wind ein wenig ^^
@@AC-db4ek It can maintain speed, but not reach it... Quite common with short gear city cars, 5th is overdrive speed for cruising and low fuel consumption, not for speed and power.
Ich fahr meinen 60PS (der hat ein längeres Getriebe) mit 2.8-3.2l bei 100, um die 5 bei 120, um die 6-8 bei 150, alles ohne Klima, auf 14 Zoll Winter/allwetterreifen, nach navi, nicht nach tacho, der ist notorisch falsch beim Up/mii/Citigo. Mit 15"/16" Felgen und besseren Reifen gehts eventuell noch etwas runter. Ist kein Schnellfahr-auto, umso besser für Landstraße und Stadt, wenn dir entspannte 110 und mal kurze 150 reichen dann geht der auch für Autobahn gut klar.
@@nazimelon6653 Danke ! Ich höre oft immer das Gegenargument; dass 60PS Karosserien nicht für die Autobahn geeignet seien. Entweder ist der Spritverbrauch auf der Autobahn zu hoch wegen der Motorisierung oder es sei zu gefährlich.. Ich muss nicht schnell auf der Autobahn sein. Ich würde eher so 110-120 kmh fahren wollen.
@@eugenqwertz8258 Doofe aussagen die man immer wieder hört. Wenn Interesse am Wagen besteht, ich kann ihn nur wärmstens empfehlen. Meine einzigen Kritikpunkte sind die nur mittelmäßig bequemen Sitze und das mittelmäßige Infotainment-System bei den Vorfacelift-modellen. Der 75 und 60 PS motor sind faktisch identisch, die 15PS mehr liegen ausschließlich über 5000 umdrehungen an, die sowieso eigentlich keiner benutzt. Wir reden hier von einem 950kg fahrzeug, die leistung reicht absolut aus. Und, durch das länger übersetzte Getriebe dreht er auf der Autobahn niedriger und fährt sich schaltfauler.

@@ashtray4313 I have been in Croatia multiple times on business trips. The country is vastly depending only on tourism as a main way of income. As for industry, agriculture or whatever else, it's as undeveloped as it gets. No disrespect just stating facts. The country is notoriously corrupt, the justice system is a big fat joke. Roads are somewhat acceptable as long as you don't turn anywhere else to explore (roads become pretty bad pretty fast). Railroad connection is a joke, trains and locomotives are an even bigger joke. Ship transportation is just awful, timing is off the scale. Public transportation is just bad, outdated and in general poorly maintained. As for infrastructure, it's as poor as it can get. They treat foreigners as they are illiterate and are always trying to rip them off with food prices, hotel accommodation prices, etc... Never had a good business trip there.

The up is virtually indestructible. Handles well and hold its own on the autobahn for what it is.
I had a National Up that's not European, It's Turbo TSI with 105hp, very good to transform into a racing car because of its height.
thank you :)
top car to drive
Nicee, please do my 2014 opel zafira tourer van, i recently drove 234 with it its a 2.0 turbo with 165ps an automatic gearbox
Here we go, this is the third vid in a row with a Citigo "top speed" run with AC on!
AC compressor disconnects at high rpm range so no power loss in the video
No. That is just how wind noisy it is.
I own a Electric Up,its quite good,you can compare the horsepower to around 1500cc!Bit expensive tho..
I own a WV Up 90 ps and I tested it yesterday 185 kmh...
Just on last Friday I bought exactly the same version of this car 😂
I have Lupo 75hp. Was driving it 183
I have a Seat Mii FR-Line with 75hp, and it's a very cool little car to drive.
It’s the same car👍

Hey I have a question i have a 1500km drive one way and do you think that up can handle this at one time?or is it better to take a stop or sth?
Just have a longer stop when fuelling. The seats are comfy but will kill your back on longer journeys.

Im 4ten🤙

It's just how LED lights show up on some cameras. The actual lights won't be flickering.

You go up to the 180km/h on fourth gear,and when you decide go down with speed you finally chause a fifth gear!? What's wrong with you,dude???!!!🤔
5th gear is overdrive - less power and torque than in 4th.
