The New Beetle.

The New Beetle is a vehicle with character and extraordinary styling. Its harmonious curves give it its looks, from the arched roof, the windscreen drawn forward over the bonnet and wings, to the rear end drawn down low to the road. Its long wheelbase and wide track indicate strength. Classic details like the assist straps in the interior evoke memories of the old Beetle, completing the bridge between the past and the future of car design.

If you like the external appearance of the New Beetle, you will adore the lovingly designed interior. The smart chrome trim around the air vents, the chrome frame of the instrument cluster and the new "Luna" and "Grafic" cloth seat upholstery combine tangible freshness with sporty elegance. All the controls are clearly laid out, providing an excellent functional overview – their blue illumination enhances the innovative look of the interior. And then there is the little vase that gives the modernity a touch of nostalgia.

The special aura of the New Beetle is also noticeable on the road. The body-colour door mirrors with built-in indicators are a real eye-catcher, and also offer a bonus in terms of safety as a result of the optimum visibility of the indicators. Intelligent functionality and exciting looks complement each other in the New Beetle – right down to the smallest detail.

The interior of the New Beetle is a place to feel good in. Sophisticated materials and excellent design create an extraordinary, bright ambience. The uniquely designed instruments with their chrome trim rings, the assist straps, the comfortable seats, plenty of storage options, the height and reach-adjustable steering wheel and the four head restraints turn driving the New Beetle into a great experience.

Aesthetic touches down to the smallest detail, and as far as the eye can see: the gear lever and handbrake lever in the New Beetle pick up on the sophisticated design of the steering wheel. But they flatter not only the eye but also the hand – thanks to the surface-finished plastics that they are made of.

You get everything a dream car needs with the Exclusive package in the New Beetle. This starts even before you set off. Open the central locking with great ease with the radio remote control, and take your seat. The "Easy Entry" function causes the front seats to slide forward automatically when entering the car. Switch on the climate control and enjoy the sound from the "alpha" radio system with its New Beetle design (it of course already has a CD changer preparation). Do you need to stow something away? No problem - there are storage pockets on the back of the front seats for small items, or the storage box built into the comfortable centre armrest. And for larger items there is the asymmetrically-split rear seat bench and backrest. Everything that a dream car needs.

The Premium package in the New Beetle offers everything your heart desires. The talking points inside include electric windows, leather steering wheel, gear knob and handbrake handle, plus a CD changer preparation and the centre armrest with storage box. Outside, the impressive features include "Las Vegas" alloy wheels, fog lights and central locking with remote control. The package also includes the "Easy Entry" function, climate control, height-adjustable front seats and the "gamma CD" radio system in New Beetle design, with CD player and six speakers. It couldn’t be more luxurious.

Experience love at first and second sight. You will discover fantastically attractive details wherever you look in the New Beetle. Do you want to know what time it is, or what the temperature is outside? A brief glance upwards is all it takes. Above the rear-view mirror there is a time and temperature display, illuminated in blue. The elegantly proportioned door handles pick up on the shapes of the New Beetle in their rounded design.
