Like
most great ideas, the New Beetle began life as a dream. Starting out as
a pure concept study in Volkswagen's California design studios, it
quickly took on a life of its own. Its cheeky good looks breathed new
life into an original legend, thrilling car lovers and journalists alike
at its sensational debut at the Detroit Motor Show. Rave reviews quickly
spread around the world - from Geneva, to Paris, to Tokyo to Frankfurt.
And soon, the New Beetle was a legend in its own right.And now, the New Beetle has undergone another reinvention… although this time, it’s oh-so subtle details that make this legend sexier, sportier and even bolder.
Range
The New Beetle is available in a 2.0 manual or automatic, 1.8 Turbo manual and in the 2.0 manual New Beetle Cabriolet.
Design
The New Beetle transcends the metal it's made from. Every piece is rounded, every surface, smooth. Every functional part from bumpers to spoilers, to mirror housings, to door handles is colour-coded, blended, integrated. The headlights and the tail-light are set directly in the body. Nothing breaks the sculptured flow.
The New Beetle now also boasts more pronounced wheel arches that frame new, sporty alloy wheels. A seamless integration of fog lights and front bumper create even more synchronicity, whilst the fresh burst of new exterior colours to choose from will make deciding which New Beetle to drive away in, far from a black and white decision.
As you invite in the heavens into the New Beetle Cabriolet, design doesn't detract from the original form. And this flowing sweep of perfection is mirrored in the interior design of the car: a sweptback dashboard area disappears over your driving horizon toward the tinted windscreen. It’s a living, moving icon.
Even as you invite in the heavens into the New Beetle Cabriolet, its fresh breath of design doesn't detract from the original form. And this flowing sweep of perfection is mirrored in the interior design of the car: a sweptback dashboard area disappears over your driving horizon toward the tinted windscreen. It’s a living, moving icon.
Believe it or not, the inside of the New Beetle is as spectacular as the outside. Flowing, rounded sweeps extend to every detail: a swept back dashboard area disappears over your driving horizon towards the tinted windscreen. A large round dial integrates and displays speed, revs, and temperature and fuel gauges, illuminated at night by a soft indigo glow.
