VW CrossFox: WTF?

[gbg]

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

i've seen it on the road...for testing purposes....not a nice looking car at all......for some reason, VW have out a spare on the back, to make it look more SUV like.....IMO that just makes the trunk harder to open hahahag

[ChickenShift]

the sad thing is it they would give it more power and awd it would be kind of cool. but then again, what wouldn't be cooler with more power and awd?

[crayzayjay]

That is one fugly thing. Where's the puke smily?

[Skaala]

it's like a jumped up golf =/ (2nd pic)

[findleybeast]

so... they gave a fox a lift, stuck the spare on the back... and that's it? ridiculous. and it doesn't even have that much clearance.

a crossgolf would make more sense, with the availability of the R32's VR6 and AWD system.

really looking forward to the W12 Toared. 450hp is'nt it?

[|Nuno|]

Damn! That's one ugly...err...thing.

What a waste of space, overpriced and useless off road.

I'd feel better taking my Saab off-road. Ground clearance looks to be the same and at least I can start in 3rd gear when it is slippery / actually have some power to use... :roll:

Subaru Justy. That's what you want, what you really really want.

[crayzayjay]

^ that actually looks pretty cool.






:shock:

I think i need to check my sexuality.
