The Volkswagen Lupo is a city car manufactured by Volkswagen.
It was introduced in 1998 to fill a gap at the bottom of the VW model range caused by the increasing size and weight of the VW Polo.

 ITV Motoring - Volkswagen Fox   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
The first two things that Volkswagen people tell you about the Fox - before going on to repeat them at five-minute intervals for the rest of the day - are that it is both larger and cheaper than the Lupo it replaces.
Some colleagues were alarmed at the Fox's low-rent interior - cheap plastics and the occasional sharp edge - and I found the high levels of road noise even at low speeds rather irritating, but this is after all a budget car which can't, for the price, match the build quality of more expensive Volkswagens.
In other respects the Fox's innards are impressive; there's a usefully large area at the top of the dashboard for storing things when the car is at rest, for example.
