Kombi Last Edition
Volkswagen
do Brasil has announced the Kombi Last Edition, a special commemorative series
of one of the most successful Volkswagen models in Brazil and the longest
produced model in automotive history.
The
Volkswagen Kombi Last Edition has a production run of only 600 units and
features exclusive body paint, luxury internal finishing and design elements
which give a nod to the many versions made in Brazil since 1957.
The
VW Kombi Last Edition comes with special two-tone white and blue body paint and
each model will be fitted with a numbered identification plaque on the
dashboard. Special design details such as whitewall tyres, white centre wheel
caps and tinted rear windows provide an extra touch of nostalgia.
The
upper section of the front grille, headlights and indicator rims come in the
same colour as the exterior. Front indicator lights feature white crystal
lenses. At the side of the vehicle decals help identify the special series: '56
anos - Kombi Last Edition'.
Inside,
the Volkswagen Kombi Last Edition features distinctive blue fabric curtains in
the side and rear windows and curtain fasteners bear the 'Kombi' logo, a
feature typical of the model's top versions from the 1960s and 70s. The
seats come in special vinyl upholstery, with sides in Atlanta Blue and a
matching two-tone centre (blue and white). The model can seat up to nine
people.
The
internal side, door and cargo panels are also upholstered in Atlanta Blue vinyl
and are finished with decorative stitching. The cabin and luggage area floors
are fitted with carpet and dilour Basalto inserts, the same material that
covers the spare tyre. The
instrument cluster boasts a special serigraph treatment and keeps the
traditional Kombi design of speedometer at the centre and fuel gauge on the
right. The MP3 sound system has red LEDs and features auxiliary and USB ports.
Each
VW Kombi Last Edition is provided with a special certificate of authenticity. The
model is equipped with the EA111 1.4-litre engine, which delivers 78 PS when
used with petrol or 80 PS when used with ethanol (both at 4.800 rpm). The
transmission is a four-speed manual.
