Volkswagen Beetle 2015 Overview

     When Volkswagen made the Beetle, little did they know then that their mass produced car for all will achieve such great levels of popularity and iconic status all over the world. Designed by Ferdinand Porsche, the Beetle entered production run in the year 1938. It has become the longest running and most manufactured vehicle to be made on a single platform. Volkswagen launched this popular hatchback in India with an attempt to bank on its classic image but unfortunately, the run wasn’t long enough due to poor acceptability and a higher price tag.

INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR

      The New Volkswagen Beetle will retain its overall outline but with altered dimensions. The classic lines on the front with round headlights and a slender flowing nose will be seen on the new Beetle too. The exterior contours have been beefed up for a more prominent design. It gets projector lights with DRL LEDs. The front bumper gets a chiselled lower jaw line with chrome lines to make it look premium.

On the side, the large wheels with equally large flares strike an impressive touch. It gets machined alloys with disc brakes on all wheels. The new Beetle will continue to be a two door car with large doors for easy ingress and egress. Body coloured door mirrors with turn indicators and a uniform shoulder line with a sweeping roof give it a stylish side profile. Even the rear is neatly finished with minimal design attributes.

Inside the new Beetle, the trims and features list is expected to change for a more modern scheme of arrangements. A touchscreen infotainment system is expected to feature in the new Beetle with grander space for occupants in the front and rear. To top it up features like satellite navigation, intelligent park assist, panoramic sun roof will come as standard as we expect the New Beetle to be available only in a single variant.

 ENGINE &  Mileage of Volkswagen Beetle 2015

 We expect the new VW Beetle to be powered by a 1.4-litre TSI motor which makes 159 bhp of power and a 1.6-litre turbo diesel that will make 104 bhp of power but with a greater torque. Both the petrol and diesel variants will be mated with an automatic gearbox.
