The Volkswagen beetle was an economy car produced by the German automaker Volkswagen in 1938. The beetle became the longest-running and most-produced automobile of a single design and it was more comfortable and powerful than most European small cars in 1950.
In 1998 Volkswagen introduced the "New Beetle" which bore a visual resemblance to the original, after the original model had been dropped from the lineup in most of the world. In the international poll for the world's most influential car of the twentieth century in 1999, the beetle came fourth after the Ford Model T, the Mini, and the Citron DS.
The Volkswagen Beetle lasted longer than most other cars which had copied the rear air-cooled engine layout such as those by Subaru, Fiat, Renault and General Motors. Porsche's sport coupes which are based on Volkswagen parts and platforms continue to use the classic rear engine layout in the Porsche 911 series, which still remains competitive in the first decade of the 21st century.
The Volkswagen beetle which received four-star Euro NCAP crash rating comes with stability control to keep you on the straight and narrow and has many airbags to help keep you safe.
