Don't Crush That Bug!!!!

In its over 58 years production life, the beetle has sold more than 21 million units. Standing as the 4th all time highest selling brand, behind the Ford F series and the Golf,Corolla tops the record with 35 million units sold over 30years. (the Golf being VW's replacement for the beetle).
Due to slowing sales of the current edition which debuted in 1998, VW is throwing in an all new model Beetle for 2011.
2011 Volkswagen Betle

Historical line up of the Bug

The new beetle will feature 3 engines, 2 petrol engines and 1 diesel and yeah, it will even have a cabriolet. VW's definition for Coupe's.

Isn't that a stunning look? Cheeky, but stunning non the less.....

  2. @ paul the engine is in front just as the current model lay out. however VW says they might have the engine return to the rear in a few years if they can get Porsche to Co-operate with them on that.
