From WheelsOnEdge:

“VW’s Up! used its stay in New York, where it was rewarded with the prize “World Car of the Year” at the Motor Show. We took it for a spin through Manhattan’s urban canyons. A small one on a big tour… Even if there are no plans to launch the Up! in the US so far, this will not stop its worldwide triumphant success. Its trumps are evident. In times of scant parking space, high fuel prices as well as customers that are price-sensititve and safety-conscious, the Up! should brilliantly play off its trump cards.”
