Volkswagen Apollo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Volkswagen Apollo was an automobile sold in Brazil between 1990 and 1992. when Volkswagen and Ford Motor Company shared models in South America in a joint venture known as Autolatina.

It was a rebadged version of Ford Brasil's Verona, a two-door sedan based on the European-sourced Ford Orion.

It was replaced by the Volkswagen Pointer, which was, similarly, in turn, based on the Ford Orion.
