As per a recent report, the well known automaker Volkswagen has confirmed that it is bringing the next generation Beetle in India this year. This car was introduced in the country for the very first time in the year 2009. Though it aimed at luring the Indian customers with its feminine looks and distinguished style, it failed to grab huge sales owing to a high price tag. The company had to clear the stock somehow and after that it was discontinued in the market. Later, in the year 2012, the next generation Beetle was showcased at 2012 Delhi Auto Expo.

The upcoming version of Beetle is far more stronger than the previous one. It carries a transition from feminine beauty to a muscular boy that looks sporty and quirky with the use of body graphics. The headlamps remain same, while the tail lamps have been stretched out a little. The bulging fenders and 17-inch alloys complement the looks even more. The cabin will get advanced equipments like power windows, leather seats, 8 speaker sound system, USB and Bluetooth connectivity, cruise control and much more.
