LA Autoshow surprise:

New body shape - but the interior looks to be pretty much resolved...

Not sure if I like it any more :(

I thought the last Up! concept was closer to a production car than this. The rear end treatment seems a step away from the simplicity that the Up! was supposed to give.

Not too sure about it if I'm honest.

Yup - I can't help but think that it's not light enough. Bearing in mind that the carbon roof, carbon dash and interior parts, the fancy spoked wheels, and the camera wing mirrors will be replaced with heavier production equivalents, I guess we'll be looking at 700 - 800kg. Lighter than a Lupo, but not really light enough for a 50hp / 36hp engine...

LOL Yeah...

And the oil, water and whatever else it is being right infront of the window wipers - im sure if someone disliked you enough they'd put summat in there...

From the video, it looks like the bonnet slides forward to reveal the filler caps, presumably from a bonnet catch inside.
