From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Volvo Venus Bilo was a concept car revealed by Volvo in 1933. It was a streamlined design with rear hinged doors and door in the side to access the engine bay. It was designed to have a great loading capacity. Nine specially designed suitcases could be fitted into spaces in the back and a compartments in the right front fender (the left fender contained spare tyre and tools. A second spare tyre in the rear was used as a bumper. The design was done by Gustaf Ericsson (son of Lars Magnus Ericsson). It was based on a a Volvo PV655 chassis and the coachwork was done by Nordbergs vagnsfabrik in 1932.

The concept led to the production model Volvo PV 36 Carioca.

The fate of the car itself is unknown. After World War II it was sold to a person in Denmark. In the mid 1950s it was owned by a danish scrapyard owner who rebuilt it into a pickup truck. It was used as late as 1956, but then it vanished.[1]
