Default VW CrossFox: WTF?

Some of you (especially_the europeans) might have heard about VW's replacement for_the Lupo: VW Fox

VW sells_the Fox here in South America since 2003 (_and it's a crap btw). Now, Fox has been given a semi-SUV treatment _and been renamed Crossfox. Take a look at it:








What_the fuck they had in mind when they designed such a bizarre thing? First of all, it's FWD, no limited slip differential, _and common road tires. The_Crossfox is totally useless on any off-road situation.

The_car costs 40.000 BRL (15.000 dollars) and_ comes with no power windows, no power doors, no radio/cd-player..._I guess _the only standard equipment is _the engine, a 4-cylinder 1.6 featuring 102 brave horses.For 50.000 BRL (19.000 dollars) you can have some amenities: ABS brakes, front airbags, CD player, leather seats... and_ 50.000 BRL is a hell lot of money here, believe me! I_think less then 1% of _the brazilians can spend this_amount in a _car.

Probably u guys in europe will have the_crossfox too..._I heard people in VW is already thinking on the_possibility of a Crossgolf:



so VW, _what's next? :x
