Volkswagen says that the Buggy Up! pays homage to the original, Beetle-based Buggy that was born in California in the 1960s. The concept features a lightweight construction with extensive body reinforcements and a roll bar behind the two seats to compensate for the loss of the roof and the doors.
The body has been redesigned while the car’s ride height has been dropped by 20mm. At 3,584mm long and 1,672mm wide, the Buggy Up! is slightly longer and wider than the hatchback model it is based on, and the two-seater rides on 18-inch alloy wheels wrapped around 205/40 tires.
Being a proper beach vehicle, the revamped interior is completely waterproof with specially designed drains in the vehicle floor and the open side sills preventing flooding. Volkswagen has not confirmed whether it will put the Buggy Up! into production, but the concept indicates that Volkswagen might create a series of vehicles based on the Up! super-mini.
