As an alternative to the Type 34 Karmann-Ghia coupé, which Volkswagen had introduced to Europe in 1961, Volkswagen do Brasil looked to Ghia in Turin for a reworked version of the Type 14 at the end of the 1960s. At the time Ghia employed Giorgetto Giugiaro, the famous Italian designer and he was set to work on the new Brazilian Karmann Ghia. The result was the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia TC (Touring Coupé), internally known as the Type 145, which began production in 1972 and was produced until 1975.[22]
This was a roomy 2+2 coupe with a modern and comfortable interior. Underneath, it was similar to the Type 14, although the platform of the Volkswagen Variant was used rather than that of the Volkswagen Beetle. The main difference was the engine: the Type 145 TC was fitted with the 1, 584 cc flat-four air-cooled boxer unit from the Type 3 instead of the 1, 192 cc unit of the Type 14.[23] The car produced 65 hp (48 kW) at 4, 600 rpm and had a top speed of 86 mph (138 km/ h), compared to the 34 hp (25 kW) and 72 mph (116 km/ h) top speed of the Type 14 Karmann Ghia.
