America's only flirtation with Brazilian cars, basically a localized Gol. Cute but as it didn't have an automatic transmission was not going to sell well here.

Yes as an entry-level subcompact from 1987 until 1993.
It was based on voyage variant and was available in 2-door, 4-door, and wagon body styles.

And the only engine offered in the states was the 1.8L 4-cylinder with either Bosch KE-Jetronic electro mechanical fuel injection (1987–1989) or Bosch Digifant electronic fuel injection (1990–1993).

also as he said, no automatic transmission. this was/is normal in Brazil but was a liability as far as US sales went.

There were a lot of this class of car back then like the Fox, Festiva, and Metro, ironically long after the energy crisis era was over and gas was cheap again.

Granted, small cars suck with automatics even more so with 80s-90s automatics but still...

I love boxy tin metal shitboxes so much.
