Volkswagen Brazil builds a subcompact car that’s smaller than the Golf, smaller even than the Polo. It’s called the Gol, and it is the entry-level vehicle for VW’s South American offerings. Here is a vehicle that would probably be too small for North American roads, but there exists a buyer for which even the Gol may be too large: little people.

With this in mind, VW Brazil has built the Mini-Gol, a little car for little people. The Mini-Gol has been scaled down by about 30-percent–overall length is down to 7.4 feet from 12.8–to better fit the proportions of a driver who’s under 5 feet tall. Inside, the dashboard, instrumentation, and seating all remain intact, albeit with a proportional downsizing to match the scale of the exterior and would-be driver.
