2012 Volkswagen Beetle Available Features: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2013 2dr Convertible turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed automated manual FWD
I am pleased with the smoothness and how the convertible top works. GOOD sound system you cannot go wrong. The only problem with the convertible is you give up some automatic features, headlights homelink, ect. But is wife's car and my Audi just confuses her. So perfect for someone who likes simple car. Good speed and trans seems smooth. 3000 miles and no problems yet see full Volkswagen Beetle review
