VW New Beetle Convertible Denim Edition
Volkswagen has put a US$ 25,995 price tag
(excluding an US$ 820 delivery fee) next to that very Levis jeans-like red tag on
their new Beetle Convertible Denim edition.
Revealed at last year’s LA Auto Show,
the new convertible model will be produced in 2,000 units.
It gets a Dark Blue top made from a new
textured fabric that resembles denim on the outside and light blue denim-color
cloth seating surfaces plus unique light-blue-and-silver dashpad and
jeans-inspired seat pockets with small Beetle flags in red on the inside. VW’s
MIB II infotainment system with a 5.0-inch resistive touchscreen display comes
as standard.
The 2016 Beetle Denim edition can be had
in either Pure White or a more fitting Stonewashed Blue exterior hue, with
production to be split equally among the two colors.
Power for the Beetle Convertible comes
from a standard 170 hp and 184 lb-ft 1.8-liter turbocharged and direct-injection
TSI gasoline engine connected to a six-speed automatic transmission driving the
front wheels.
