Volkswagen A0 Compact SUV: what is it?

This new SUV will likely be called the “Volkswagen Yeh” upon debut; currently it is referred to as the Volkswagen A0 SUV internally. A prototype of this SUV will debut in Brazil in the coming days.

This new SUV will be based on the MQB-A0 platform for emerging markets that underpins a slew of models globally including the current-gen Polo, the Nivus SUV and also the T-Cross sold in the South American market.

This platform is similar to the MQB-A0-IN architecture that underpins the Volkswagen Taigun and Virtus and also the Skoda Kushaq and Slavia in India. The upcoming Skoda Kylaq SUV will also be underpinned by the MQB-A0-IN platform.

The Volkswagen A0 SUV will have a 2.5 meter long wheelbase and overall length will likely be around 4 meters. It will get design cues seen on newer Volkswagen models that feature a silmmer grille with a tall bumper along with connected tail lamp setup at the back. The SUV will have a coupe-like roofline, unlike the Taigun which has a more upright profile.

Expect more details on powertrain, tech and features to surface once the prototype is revealed.
