The previous version, produced from 1999 to 2005, it was distributed in only 175,000 copies, despite the unique and innovative qualities that characterize it, such as extremely low power consumption combined with more than satisfactory performance. It is worth mentioning the 1.2 TDI version of the crew, which combined with low weight and excellent aerodynamics with a drag coefficient of 0.25, stated an average consumption of 3 liters per 100 km / h paths, made without the use of engines electric.
