Tjaap, it's not really like that...

Gol is the leader for about 21 YEARS now, but it was getting obsolete in comparison to the other models in market...
Uno still sells, correct, but only the basic one, 1 litter, without A/C, etc... and it was "kind of" remodeled (now it's ugly as HELL, but some people like it... )
The Fiat Palio family was crushing Gol Family (Parati and Saveiro), and now with the remodeled Fiats, VW/B (I hope) woke up!!
I'll wait and see the car live before saying if it's "good/bad". But that'll take some time 'cause it is still to be released....
