The Volkswagen Brasilia is a compact car made in Brazil between 1973 and 1982.

The Brasilia (named after Brazil's capital city) looked like a smaller version of the Volkswagen 412 Variant, but was in fact based on the Volkswagen Beetle. It was developed by Volkswagen do Brasil (Volkswagen of Brazil), which had at the time a unique and somewhat exotic line of cars, which spawned such rarities as the SP2. The Brasilia was equipped with the 1600cc Volkswagen air-cooled engine from the Beetle.

Voted!! and the car of the World Rally 1974...

Ingo Hoffman , with the Brasilia creditum team, ran in the former Division 3 and won the 1974 Paulista championship in Class A ( up to 1600 cm3 ) . Also in 1974, a Brasilia participated in the World Cup Rally in the hands of Claudius Mueller and Carlos Weck , from London , crossed the English Channel, passed by France and Spain , and again crossed the sea coming to Morocco. Returned by Tunisia , Italy, Greece and arrived in Munich, Germany , supporting a rally that was considered very difficult .


And this car on TV series "El Chavo" RIP Roberto Bolaños
