Volkswagen IN

Autoconcern Volkswagen has shown one more prototype of the double city car. Unlike the conceptual model presented on the Frankfurt motor show “L1”, passengers in new “IN” sit not one after another, and as in the usual car — shoulder to shoulder.

Volkswagen IN

Authors of this project — young designers of the Brazilian studio of concern "Volkswagen". Probably, therefore “IN” seriously enough differs from the European colleague. After all rather poor inhabitants of the majority of the countries of Latin America usually look for to themselves accessible, but thus the universal and practical car that and on a city was to go conveniently, and a maize from a plantation to bring. But “L1”, despite the fantastic profitability, for a daily life it is not so adapted.

Hybrid version: IN

Besides, concern Volkswagen it is ready to transform “IN” into a hybrid. In this case the car is set in motion by the electromotors which have been built in wheels. And when the electrobattery charge will run low, will begin work the petrol engine working on cheap ethanol.
