Brazil-Germany-Auto-Vw-Kombi-Theme-Colors
Different models of Kombis are exhibited at the Volkswagen plant in Sao Bernardo do Campo, southern Sao Paulo, Brazil on December 8, 2013. VWs Kombi, or camper van, has meant road trips for generations of families, from surfers to hippies, in search of that perfect wave or trip. But times have changed and in Brazil, the last country in the world still producing the vehicles, new auto laws coming into effect at the start of the new year has meant the last of the iconic vans will roll down the production line on December 31 in the last factory still producing them in Sao Paulo, a victim of auto regulations and requirements like anti-lock brakes and air bags.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bygone era as different models of Kombis are showcased at the Volkswagen plant in Sao Bernardo do Campo, southern Sao Paulo, Brazil. The iconic VW Kombi, also known as the camper van, has been synonymous with road trips for generations of families - from surfers seeking that perfect wave to free-spirited hippies embarking on transformative journeys. However, times have changed and new auto laws set to take effect in Brazil have dealt a fatal blow to the production of these beloved vehicles. As the last country in the world still manufacturing Kombis, Brazil's adherence to stringent regulations such as anti-lock brakes and airbags has forced Volkswagen's hand. Consequently, December 31 marks not only the end of an era but also signifies the final day that these iconic vans will roll off production lines at their São Paulo factory. The photograph beautifully showcases various models of this classic car lined up like relics from a cherished past. It serves as a poignant reminder of how societal changes can impact even our most treasured symbols. Nelson Almeida's lens skillfully captures both nostalgia and melancholy within this image – evoking emotions tied to memories made inside those four walls on wheels. As we bid farewell to an automotive legend forever etched into our collective consciousness, let us celebrate its enduring legacy while embracing progress and innovation in today's ever-evolving world.
