Quite a few of these VWs are used for fire trucks in Brazil, as the chassis is manufactured locally, and some are exported to other south American countries.
They are much larger than any VW built elsewhere, and have a lot in common with MAN trucks. The cab on this unit is an actual VW cab from a smaller chassis, and looks a little tiny, perched between the front wheelarches.
