Road Test: 2012 Volkswagen Beetle

[@Indigo8086]

All those Beatles jokes, I was groaning through my tears!

[@radudeATL]

I'm a little surprised at how more attractive this car is compared to the previous gen.

[@mollari2261]

The previous model was better in every way except reliability. The new one was too VW-corporate inside and under the hood, and the interior materials quality was a step backward.

[@steveespinola7652]

I still love the VW Beetle and this one did look a bit nicer than the previous one ( but I still like the previous model too) but unfortunately it got discontinued again, 2019 was the last model for it.

[@SebGir28]

Nice references about the Beatles on this Beetle review ! Both were the greatest :)

[@Bare_Essence]

Ok, they showed the wrong picture for the headlights. Only the turbo, that they did occasionally show, does have them with the LED DLR and foglights.

[@boovoo66]

Much better than the last one!

[@joseph-charlesdasilva4755]

Day tripper ;) I love that beatle too and ordered in Puebla last January my Beetle Couture Exclusive 1.4 TSI DSG7 ;) cheers

[@autonathan]

Looks pretty cool. I would get a Manual Turbo in black...

[@joshuaslosser6988]

I should have got the manual lmao

[@fernandorocha8459]

@@joshuaslosser6988 Very nice this VW Beetle, great little car

[@steveespinola7652]

All those Beatle jokes I was cracking up. 😂😄

[@flipfloplogic]

I have a 2012 2LT camaro and would seriously consider a beetle......a turbo model....IF the ride and handling is as good as the reviews say.

[@fortimusprime]

IT IS! I have a 2012 Turbo model and it's amazing even 10 years later!!

[@bmwmsport11]

Vw should really make a sport body kit optional for these. Then it looks better

[@redmum57]

1:23 IT REMINDS ME OF 911

[@DavidStewart-np3cj]

"This little critter" hahahahaha

[@alberthwang83]

Bi-xenon headlights with LED DRLs? Fail....this guy needs to re-watch his video or get the correct one. The bi-xenon is part of a package with the 19" tornado rims. I know this because I'm in the market for one that's fully loaded.

[@senpaigarr]

I love this car lol. I always loved the original, and I really didn't like the New Beetle. This was a perfect mix of new and original.

[@gene978]

I still think the MPG is out of touch with today's fuel efficient small,and larger cars

[@markb3756]

I love the looks of this Turbo Beetle! Those were not bi-xenon headlights though.

[@alessiovigna7865]

No surprise: that's the Italian design ;-)

[@kalargyi]

Sold to me! Only if 35+ mpg @ under $18k, why pay as a golf if it ain't better

[@conceptcs]

VW finally figure out that its still men that drive cars.

[@SniperPilotX]

The i5 doesn't come with a turbo, only the i4...

[@soylentgreeneater]

I'm surprised it has such sloppy handling. Was expecting GTI performance. Glad they at least allow the 2.0t in this car.

[@stevessvt]

@rojman123 Does it really bug you that bad?

[@alessiovigna7865]

That's how things must be :-)

[@MrDesert1973]

Amazing Car ***** I Need One .................

[@UTAHbilly]

The turbo hauls.

[@moparmonster1965]

@conceptcs And yet they're selling this steaming little turd anyway.

[@NotRealNamesAgain]

Alright, I have to ask. Which designer left an in-heat TT in a garage with a drunk Beetle? The abomination that resulted is something that makes me think: KILL IT WITH FIRE KILL IT KILL IT! -That said, I was never really a fan of the car, but MY GOD!

[@schnuurtchke]

Beetle 🪲 car 🚘

[@oretexman]

bring back the old bug it was way more fun to drive

[@nismofury]

Costs too much! Whole car needs to be flatter. Mpgs need to be better. I have yet to see one on the road.

[@pontiacGXPfan]

RIP VW Beetle

[@rojman123]

Going a little overboard with the insect references in this review.

[@Rotivanila5]

Volkswagen beetle

[@Acejustforalaugh]

The beetle was discontinued for a reason. It lost its charm ✨️.

[@SquiggleSquared]

PLZ DO THE GTI GOLF 2013!!!! PLZ PLZ PLZ

[@alecfordguy]

you cant change the looks of a Beetle no matter what it will alway look the same

[@Raffix394]

@bg012772 Don't buy Mexican build VWs... actually don't buy Mexican build cars at all, then you're proably good to go

[@kenmtb]

The Rich People's car :/

[@Monacomaverick]

These cars were only BUILT in Mexico, not engineered by Mexicans. So many people blame the car's shittiness on being built in Mexico, when the lousy engineering and material choices are made in Germany. Newer VWs are a disgrace to the legacy of Ferdinand Porsche. They are anything but simple, and nothing but trouble.

[@2steaksandwiches665]

Previous gen was better.

[@Buttnut105]

I can't think of one thing about this car that I like. It's just a Gold underneath so why not just buy a golf and save yourself the embarrassment of climbing in and out of something that's gay as AIDs?

[@DONNYBOYY28]

Another boring review
