The VW Beetle Dune was indeed a study, said Kamei at the Detroit Auto Show 2014. At the same time, Kamei stressed that everything on this car is quick to put into the series. And now it's clear: the dunes beetle come 2016.
The document is in a short note in the press release to the most recent versions of the beetle at the New York Auto Show 2015: "concept cars such as the 2014 at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit presented beetle dune show that quickly series models can arise from such ideas at Volkswagen going early 2016 on the market the "Dune" with its rusticated body." For the beetle is exactly 50 mm is transported upwards and with big 19-inch legs.
To do this, there is a new grill with under ride Protection and honeycomb pattern, a higher hood with edge in LED technology. VW goes side skirts also in off-road look and wheel arches coated with black plastic - the beetle for it is finished rough. Where over the mats main parts of sills called "blades" are integrated - only 1.5 mm thick elements, indeed so thin as a blade. A simple trick to the optical performance seems like they would hover over the actual massive wheel arches. Due to the growing parts of the beetle is dune almost five inches wider than the series and also slightly longer (4.29 m). The track is also less than three centimeters in width.
The Interior corresponds to the series
With the beetle Dune, Volkswagen recorded an idea that was born in January 2000 with the featured Los Angeles study new beetle dune. But while the shown in California, first study was especially inside still far away from the series, the second King of the dune has vintage 2014 nearly the current beetle Interior, jazzed up with some color. The Dash pad painted in the body color this time has not the beetle compartment on the passenger side - it gave way to the non-iconic handhold of the beetle in this case.
Small Schmakerl on the edge: the complete Infotainment system was carried out at least in the study as a digital interface with a 7.7 inch high-resolution touch screen, the new generation of the VW-Infotainment will certainly be used in the production model. VW has the suitable drive also already in store: the 2.0-liter TFSI from the Golf GTI is well known and has XDS electronic differential lock on board and a six-speed DSG. That's enough in the case of the dune beetle for the standard Sprint to speed of 100 in 7.3 seconds and 227 km/h top. 2016 VW Beetle Dune specs and photos
