COB also announced that the Brazilian delegation will have access to four coaches, twelve minivans and six cars during the Games. The vehicles will be provided by their sponsor, Nissan, and all decorated in Team Brazil's colours with its logo.  The coaches are predominantly blue and decorated with images of famous olympians, including Maurren Maggi, Cesar Cielo, Rodrigo Pessoa and the Brazilian mens and womens volleyball teams.

The vehicles will transport members of the Brazilian delegation between its training base at Crystal Palace, the Olympic Village in Stratford, Weymouth, Sheffield (where the Brazilian Judo team will be training) and other training venues.  The cars and minivans will be available to the delegation from 1 July.
