And don’t stop until someone joins you. Dare to be happy. The power of positive. These days, negativity is all the rage. Just look around you, the proof is everywhere. Cynical is considered smart, brood and you’re deep, get angry and you’re labeled passionate. But you don’t have to buy into it. You can be different. Sure, some may point. People may even shake their heads. Why play their game? They can have all the gloom. Dare to be happy. You wouldn’t expect such a friendly car to have a little devil under the hood. The design of the New Beetle’s 2.5L, 5-cylinder engine is based on a Lamborghini’s V10. Team that engine up with electronic stabilization and a Tiptronic® transmission, and you can take a drive on the wild side. We dare you. To perform a positive poem at a coffee shop spoken word night. The positive powerplant. There’s a little storage compartment that sits underneath the auxiliary input jack. Conveniently, it’s just the right size for an iPod®. Imagine that. What you decide to keep in the armrest storage compartment is really none of our business. We just wanted to let you know it’s there if you need it. The New Beetle is like a mini dome-shaped theater complete with a 6-speaker stereo system. The New Beetle Convertible has 10 speakers in case you want to share your SIRIUSTM satellite radio with the outside world. You know when you get out of the car and realize you’ve left a window rolled down? You can close it from outside the driver’s door by simply turning your key. And it’s great for making kids think you can do magic too. Who doesn’t like surprises? When driving by moonlight, our signature red and blue-lit interior display helps you see the gauges and odometers more easily. But more importantly it puts a healthy and happy glow on your face. The Inspiration Pod is for selfexpression, not just for flowers. So, use it to sport one of those giant lollipops, or a slide whistle or, if you’re hungry, a stick of beef jerky. Elliptical headlights offer increased visibility and also look pretty sharp. Semitransparent taillights give the back-end a look that’s at once both classic and modern. Happiness has its benefits. New Beetle special features For some reason, when most people see a New Beetle, they feel good. And whenever people get into a New Beetle, they feel even better. That’s because we’ve made sure the driving experience is a pleasure inside and out. The New Triple White Sedan. With a white exterior, white interior and a white spoiler, the Triple White Beetle certainly lives up to its name. And while we gave it strong ties to its 1976 convertible predecessor, you have to look no further than under the hood to find major, and we do mean major, differences. Since their rebirth, these cars have been going fast, in more ways than one. We dare you. To invent a dance and perform it at a stuffy restaurant. FRONT SEAT SAFETY BELT PRE-TENSIONERS WITH LOAD LIMITERS In a severe front impact, the turbines in the pre-tensioners activate, reeling in safety belt slack. PREVENT AND PRESERVE SAFETY SYSTEM Every Volkswagen model comes standard with 47 safety features that make up our Prevent and Preserve Safety System. The features work together to both help you avoid an accident and protect you if an accident is unavoidable.
