This car was based on the Type 3. This is the Brazilian version of the type 3. Apparently the Brazilian VW factory had some freedom to make a line up, especially for the Brazilian or south American market. This specific model was available in different layouts such as this square back, a coupe ‘variant’ (fastback) and even a four door sedan (ponton) which in Europe was only available with two doors. The Brazilian cars were based on the older versions of the type 3, with the swing arme rear axle. Production of the Brazilian versions continued long after the production of the German version was stopped. Quite rare for us in Europe to see such a Brazilian ‘variant’!

All content proves lack of touch with reality of other manufacturers or just cheap VW advert. What a pity😂

This isn't even a Type 3. AI rubbish-video.

[@rothotborski]

"predictable handling" ....yeah that was typical for all rear engine-layouts of this aera...turned off, somebody has no clue what he is talking about and for sure never has driven this car

These were crap, Brazilian or German, crap. They were gas guzzlers and could not cope with a BMW 1602, a 404 Peugeot an Austin Balanza or a Renault 16. These were as stable as a pregnant duck!

Cool classic!

[@sebastian0107]

Rubbish video; this is not a Type 3. Do your research first.

[@Summers-lad]

Actually it is, but it's a Brazilian version, and I think it's a bit earlier than 1970.

[@sebastian0107]

@@Summers-lad No, it's not. They may look alike, but this is a Beetle based Brazilian 1600, originally developed as a Beetle successor. They shipped the tooling to Brazil early 60's. The ship sank, and got salvaged. Few years later it went into production. Not one body-part is exchangeable with the EU Type 3; it's smaller and uses a different floor-pan. This one does not have a flat cooling system. The cheaper 'Brasilia' was a spin off from it.
