The VW Beetle is a legendary car model of today’s Volkswagen AG and was the best-selling automobile in the world with over 21.5 million units until June 2002, when it passed this title on to its successor from the same company, the VW Golf. For the first time, a new city was founded specifically for the construction of a vehicle type on the green field: Wolfsburg. The other successor to the Beetle is the New Beetle, it is manufactured in Mexico and has been available in the so-called retro design since 1998.
The New York Times possibly first used the name “Beetle” in an article on July 3, 1938, envisioning “thousands and thousands of shiny little beetles that will soon populate the German Autobahn”. Officially, however, the car was called “KdF-Wagen” (power through joy). According to unconfirmed information, Adolf Hitler said to have already suggested the streamlined shape with the words like a beetle to Porsche.
