Volkswagen has published official photos of the compact coupe-crossover Nivus in camouflage film, and also spoke about the technical characteristics of the new product. The model was developed by the Brazilian division of the brand and will become global in the future.

• Volkswagen Nivus is built on a simplified MQB A0 platform, on which the T-Cross crossover is also based. The novelty is longer than the European T-Cross by 158 millimeters (4266 mm), but in terms of wheelbase it surpasses only 15 mm (2566 mm). The Nivus has 30 liters more boot space (415 liters) than the T-Cross. Volkswagen calls this one of the best in the class.
• The standard equipment of the novelty includes disc brakes "in a circle" (the T-Cross has "drums" at the rear), a stabilization system and an electronic imitation of the front differential lock. For a surcharge, adaptive cruise control (for the first time among the brand's compact crossovers), an auto-braking system, LED optics, 17-inch wheels, a digital dashboard and multimedia with an eight-inch screen are available.
• In Brazil, the Nivus will go on sale with a liter three-cylinder turbo engine that is capable of running on gasoline (116 hp) and ethanol (128 hp). It is combined with a six-speed "automatic". Drive type - front only.

• The full-fledged premiere of the Volkswagen Nivus will take place in June, and before that its production will begin at a plant in Brazilian São Bernardo do Campo. In 2021, the assembly of the coupe-crossover will be established at the European enterprise of the brand, and it will go on sale in Europe.
