Description[]
The Volkswagen Beetle is a small family car manufactured by Volkswagen from 2011 to 2019 as the successor to the New Beetle. Styled by Walter de Silva, the Beetle, like its predecessor, featured a number of design elements taken from the original Beetle, and is named a number of other names in other countries, such as the Käfer in Germany, Coccinelle in France, Fusca in Brazil and Maggiolino in Italy. The car itself is manufactured in Mexico alongside the Jetta. Production of the Beetle ended in 2019; there is no direct successor to the Beetle, with Volkswagen stating that this would be the Beetle's final generation.
