Book the most sophisticated to the most muscular engine chassis? It was so far the bias of the Beetle in its Coupe versions. But the retro Volkswagen decided to extend its multi-link rear suspension across the range.

Despite its crisp boils, the new Beetle has not always been able to soften us.
Our tester Christophe Congrega even strongly criticized the chassis of its TSI 160 version, both uncomfortable and moderately effective.

A change which also includes the recently released Cabriolet, newly marketed and has a multi-link rear suspension from the start.





BeetleThe brand new 2013 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible debuted today at the 2012 Los Angeles Auto Show but we got to drive it before it broke cover along the ocean in California. The new Beetle Convertible carries on a decades long tradition of topless motoring and this newest Beetle plays on the VW Beetles reputation with three special addition cars that include a 50's 60's and 70's theme.
