Emis was born in Rio de Janeiro, and its founder and owner was E duardo MI randa S antos (hence the name of the company). Many years later, the factory was transferred to Porto Alegre, where today it is the only gaucho buggies factory. Initially it produced buggies in Rio de Janeiro, but also produced an urban minibus of mechanics Volkswagen : the Emis Art. Although it is not a buggy, the fact that the Art was manufactured by a company specialized in buggies makes this vehicle must be in the List of cars that changed the concept and style about cars of reduced size for the following years.... Some call it the "smart Brazilian of the 80s".

Look at that chassis, it's a sheet metal monocoque like a Lotus Elite or XR3.
Mit Beetle front end and drivetrain. I'd like to see this chassis under a Myers Manx or something.
