Volkswagen Beetle R Concept
The latest iteration of Volkswagen iconic Beetle range was unveiled for the first time at the Frankfurt Motor show. This version of its high-performance ‘R’ brand is described by VW as the “sportiest Beetle ever’ thanks to engine power that, according to the manufacturer, is on a par with Golf R (266bhp). It also features monstrous 20-inch alloys, customised front and read sections, plus two sets of dual-chrome tailpipes. Nice. So far VW haven’t revealed whether this concept will ever reach production, but take a look at the pics and let us know your thoughts.
