VAM Lerma

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The VAM Lerma was an automobile manufactured by Vehiculos Automotores Mexicanos in the early 1980s. The car was based on two other vehicles by VAM's license partner American Motors. It used a chassis and some body panels from the AMC Concord, but the rear of the car was borrowed from the AMC Spirit. There were two body styles available, a 3-door hatchback and a 5-door hatchback (a body style not available for any of AMC's models at that time).

It is believed that the VAM Lerma was the first Mexican-only body style, and it is also one of the few Mexican-only models in history.
