Volkswagen Lupo

Automobiles

The Volkswagen Lupo is a small city car produced by Volkswagen from 1998 to 2005, positioned below the Polo in the brand's lineup. It is best remembered for the specialized "3L Lupo" diesel variant, engineered with lightweight materials and an ultra-lean aerodynamic body to achieve fuel consumption of about three liters per hundred kilometers, an efficiency benchmark few production cars of its era matched.
