The Vario II is a 2+2 with a modular roofing system proposed by the Swiss student Alexander Guye of the Art Center College. Of the various solutions presented, this one appealed most to Herbert Schafer, and he decided to transpose it into a 1:1 scale.
This is a more futuristic car than the Vario I, but a dream car that responds perfectly to the will to demonstrate the versatility of the Golf-Syncro platform on a concrete basis. It has a vario-roof folding-steel top that has only recently gone into production. Other futuristic design elements include slim-line headlights and multi-dome taillights since copied by different manufacturers.
