The minimalist theme continues in the interior of the Up! Lite which features bright, clean surfaces to reduce clutter and therefore complexity. The main controls for the operation of the vehicle are grouped around the steering wheel, while the climate and entertainment functions are handled by the central touchscreen. Up front, the driver and passenger seats fold forward to allow access for the rear-seat passengers. For larger loads the rear seats and the front passenger seat can all fold flat into the floor.
Using components from the New Small Family of vehicles set to be launched from 2011 onwards, the Up! Lite is intended as a step towards a viable production car.
