  • Refinement- Excellent highway cruiser with exceptional NVH levels partly thanks to its bulbous shape that cuts through air and minimizes wind noise.
  • Frameless window- Fits the quirky and funky aesthetic of the Beetle while also looking elegant at the same time.

Cons
  • Ride and Handling- Based on the platform that also underpins the older Volkswagen Golf Mk 6, the ride can be a touch firm at low speed and handling leaves much to be desired.
  • Safety Feature- The lack of Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) is concerning especially at this price point.
  • Outdated Interior- The Volkswagen Beetle has not been produced in Germany since the 1970s. It should not come as a surprise then when the Mexican-made Beetle often times feature out of date equipment from the Volkswagen parts ‘bin’.
