Volkswagen Beetle (Pre-1998)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaThe Volkswagen Type 1, more commonly known as the Beetle, is an economy car produced by the
German automaker Volkswagen
from 1938 until 2003. Although the names "Beetle" and "Bug" were
quickly adopted by the public, it was not until August of 1967 that VW
itself began using the name Beetle in marketing materials. It had previously been known only as either the "Type I" or as the 1200 (twelve-hundred), 1300 (thirteen-hundred) or 1500 (fifteen-hundred), which had been the names under which the vehicle was marketed in Europe prior to 1967; the numbers denoted the vehicle's engine size in cubic centimeters.
