The Volkswagen Beetle is a retro icon that has captured the hearts of many since it was first introduced more than 60 years ago. This classic car has been reinvented and is full of technology and amenities that up its game. Here are some great reasons why you should rediscover the Volkswagen Beetle.

  1. It’s Full of Technology

The 2019 VW Beetle has plenty of technology to keep you connected. App-Connect allows you to plug in your smartphone or smart watch and access your apps on the touchscreen. With Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and Bluetooth compatibility, you can stream your favorite playlists. The 400-watt Fender premium audio system ensures you have crystal-clear sound.

The Sunroof rain notification alerts you via smartphone if rain is in the forecast and reminds you to close the sunroof. The available VW Car-Net Security & Service helps you find your car if you’ve forgotten where you parked it and lets you lock the doors via your smartphone.

  1. There are Safety Features Galore

Although a retro-style car, the new Beetle comes loaded with high-tech safety features to ensure you get to your destination safely. Standard and available safety equipment includes blind spot monitor, a rear view camera system, automatic post-collision braking system, intelligent crash response system, tire pressure monitoring system, and seven stability-enhancing systems. A rigid safety cage features front and rear crumple zones that help absorb energy in case of a crash and deflect it away from you and your passengers.

Whether you’re nostalgic or not, the VW Beetle is a car that punches above its weight and should not be missed.
