The Volkswagen Beetle combines retro and modern influences. The iconic Beetle silhouette remains, but the vehicle's mechanics are all 21st century. You can choose between two engines: a 1.8-litre 170-horsepower 4-cylinder turbo or a 2.0-litre turbodiesel that consumes 5.8 litres of fuel per 100 km. If you want to catch some rays while driving, rest assured that the Beetle can also be ordered in convertible form. In the Classic version, drives will be even more romantic.
