As the crossover market continues to heat up, car companies are being challenged to engineer more practical and fuel-efficient vehicles that stay on the cutting edge of style and design. Volkswagen’s answer to this challenge is a range of CrossBlue concepts that were displayed at the Detroit, Geneva, and Shanghai auto shows in the last year. One of these vehicles, the Volkswagen CrossBlue Coupe, was first shown at the Shanghai auto show this past April. The small five-seat crossover concept is scheduled to make an appearance at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show with updated U.S. specifications.
