Volkswagen Lupo Gti Tornado red 2001

In 1998, Volkswagen launched the Lupo, the smallest car ever produced by the brand. Positioned below the Polo in the range, there was no indication that it would give rise to a sports version. And yet, to everyone's surprise, the German manufacturer unveiled a Lupo GTI in 2000. It featured special bumpers, 15-inch wheels, a central twin exhaust and disc brakes. Under the bonnet, the 1.6-litre 16-valve engine developed 125 horsepower. This power, combined with its low weight, transformed this small city car into a real little sports car!
