History

The station was built by CPTM to attend Interlagos Circuit and adjacencies. Opened on 17 October 2007, the station was the first of integrated operation between CPTM and Metro. It is also the first to be delivered to transform CPTM lined in surface metro, which consists in less wait time in the platform and more comfort in the trains, among other aspects.

Autódromo station is also close to the entrance of Pinheiros River Bicycle Path, accessed through Vitorino Goulart da Silva Bridge.
