Volkswagen has expanded its range of Cross models with the new Cross Up which will be showcased at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. The VW Cross Up joins the Cross Polo, Cross Golf and Cross Touran which have been a big success in Europe. Cross models are defined by their rugged design as well as their tough lifestyle qualities. The VW Cross Up is not destined for South Africa.
