VW GoL: Brazilian
it was
in Argentina
too !!
The string of interesting and offbeat Volkswagens from the firm's Brazilian division is enough to fill a coffee-table book. The
SP2, for example, is one of the prettiest variations ever laid atop Type III mechanicals, one that many die-hard Volks-fans in the United States have never heard of. The rest of the world probably knows better what
VW do Brasil has wrought; forty-something years of cars we'd dearly love to roll here in The States, but which never came north. Eventually, a Brazilian VeeDub did head for os Estados Unidos.
Instead of
Brasilias or
Karmann Ghia TCs, we got the Fox. Known in Brazil as the Gol, which rode on its own BX platform, itself a derivate of the
B1 platform that underpinned other VW and Audi products. Our Foxes were all sedans or wagons, but a recent troll of old car ads on Flickr turned up this masterpiece. Look carefully - we always thought the Fox transaxle looked a lot like the naughty bits of a Beetle. And there it is, a doghouse-shrouded 1300cc bit of air-cooled muscle mounted in the FRONT. Hot diggety, this thing has it all, 3-door hatch bodywork, a flat-four, and no pesky coolant to boil over in tropical climes. The closest you can come to something like this now is an Impreza hatch, which is an exponentially better car. That doesn't stop us from thinking about bolting that spare 1600DP into a Polo-Edition Fox and warping everyone's minds at the next Spring Dust-Off.
these things are fast
They were produced by Volkswagen in Brazil, and is a design unique to Latin America. It is produced as a hatchback, but there is also a station wagon version, known as the Parati in Brazil and the Gol Country in Argentina. The Gol, which takes its name from the Portuguese word for 'goal', is not to be confused with the VW Golf.
The Gol is also sold in Mexico as the Volkswagen Pointer, a name previously used in Brazil and Argentina for a model based on the Ford Escort.
The sedan and wagon versions were sold in the US and Canada as the Volkswagen Fox in the mid-1980s.
Starting in late June 2000, the VW Gol in Brazil had a really cool new engine option...a 1.0L 16v turbo!
1carburated air cooled 1285 cc (1980-1981)
2carburated air cooled 1584 cc (1981-1986)
The engine (1983-1984):
FLat 4 ("boxer")
1584 cc (1.6L)
Air cooled!
Rated at 66 HP SAE
This engine was borrowed from the VW BEETLE (known as the Beetle in North America)
2-Door only, that is produced still today
THE SAME OLD BEETLE
ENGINE BUT IN THE FRONT!!1600c.c!2 CARPRURATERS!
Brazilian answer to the Polo – front-engined, front-wheel drive but flat-four, 1600cc air-cooled power! How cool is that? Check the Porsche-style cooling system. We already know of at least one person in Europe adapting this for use in a Beetle. Who's next?
