Brazil gets the VW BlueMotion Range
October 30, 2008 by admin
Volkswagen has decided to offer the BlueMotion badge in Brazil, although it has adapted it to the homegrown fuel from the South American continent, the Brazilian BlueMotion badge vehicles will be powered by ethanol. BlueMotion will be an option for the Fox (pictured above), Golf and Polo models. Not much information has been released yet, although the models are currently being shown at the São Paulo Motor Show.
The Brazilian Polo BlueMotion will be powered by a flex-fuel 1.6-liter engine mated to a new gearbox with longer gear ratios. As usual, some additional tweaks are included in the pack, such as a closed front grille and underside, lowered suspension and low-rolling resistance tires mated to 14-inch wheels. The Polo is expected to be on sale by the end of the year but the BlueMotion versions of the Gol and the Fox probably won’t be ready until later in 2009
