    Oh yes, we still have some old fusca cars around in the cities, but very less than 20 years ago...lol...Fusca was a real fever in the 60īs, 70īs and the middle of 80īs.

    Volkswagen was the market leader for a very long time in Brazil, specially due to the Fusca!

    Today, Volkswagen has the GOL, one of the sales leader of Brazil.

    I donīt miss the Fusca....lol...a very small car. I prefer medium to big cars, and the new stylish cars! (lol).

    THE HISTORY OF FUSCA:

    The Volkswagen Beetle, also known as the Volkswagen Type 1, was an economy car produced by the German auto maker Volkswagen (VW) from 1938 until 2003. The Beetle became the worldwide longest-running and most-manufactured automobile of a single design platform.
