2012 Volkswagen BeetleThe Volkswagen Beetle has existed in its current form for more than a decade, now, so it's time for an update. For 2012, it gets a makeover that combines modern engine choices with a bit more retro-styling than the New Beetle has been sporting. .
When it comes onto the market this fall, buyers will notice that the 2012 Volkswagen Beetle has an exterior that combines the best of the classic and modern versions of this vehicle. The front end is evolved from the current (2010) version of the car, while the back end gives us the flatter roofline and C-pillars that arc down to the rear bumper. Combined, these changes make a big difference to this little car's appearance. .
Helping out with the change in look is a boost in size. This year's Beetle is six inches longer and more than three inches wider than its immediate predecessor. Optional exterior features include a rear spoiler, a moonroof, and 19-inch wheels, as well as a broad variety of paint colors, wraps, and even an annual "theme" model. .
The interior of the 2012 Volkswagen Beetle has been revamped, as well.
