The ever so popular Beetle has been an icon of the Volkswagen brand. “The Beetle,” the latest and the third generation of the model, makes its first appearance in Japan at the Tokyo Motor Show following its global debut last spring. The Beetle is characterized by a low and wide exterior design that is a modern interpretation of the original Beetle as a tribute to the first model. The interior, while reminiscent of the original Beetle interior, boasts the latest layout based on ergonomics. The latest power train, with attention to environmental performance, achieves superior fuel consumption. The Beetle is scheduled to be introduced into Japan next year.
