Today we have new spy shots of the prototype testing in Europe, revealing little, but confirming more.

The car in the photos appears to be the basic three-door hatch variant, which is expected to be among the first to reach production. A five-door/microvan is also expected at launch. A sporty convertible could follow shortly after, while the all-electric Up! isn't expected until 2013.

For the combustion-powered models, the car is expected to share the three-cylinder gasoline engine found in the new 2011 Polo.

The all-electric Up! is expected to get a 60-horsepower motorand a lithium-ion battery good for at least 65 miles distance of driving.
