412
The 412 replaced the 411 in August 1972 in Germany, having been restyled by designer Brooks Stevens. Halogen lights were fitted, the headlight surround was reshaped and the nose panels were redesigned. In 1974 the engine capacity was raised to 1798cc and fuel management reverted to a twin carburettor system, the 412LE now being renamed 412LS.
The visual design of the Volkswagen 412 Variant was followed when the Type 1 based Volkswagen Brasilia was produced in Brazil, primarily for the Latin American markets, and the Brazilian Type 3 models TL, Variant and Variant II.
In February 1974 on the German market the 4-door 412L was priced at DM 10,995 (DM 11,145 for the 412 LS).
