Volkswagen Beetle R concept gave to understand how serial "charged" beetle". In early summer, over the Network began to circulate rumors that Volkswagen allegedly planned to show in Frankfurt "hot" R-version of the Beetle. We then this news was skeptical. But in vain - Wolfsburg still brought international automotrice mutated "insect". However, while in the form of a concept car. So partly we in their guesses were right. Technical characteristics of the prototype, the Germans were not announced, but hinted that the level of performance "bug" will be similar to other members of the R-cohort, namely hatchbacks Golf R and Scirocco R. That is, we may expect retrohale Beetle R two-liter turbo engine efficiency 265-270 HP and all-wheel drive transmission with clutch Haldex generation IV, which works with a constant preload (part always sent to the rear wheels). But the appearance of serial instance now is not a mystery: it is unlikely in R GmbH will make any adjustments to the appearance of a conveyor of the machine. The concept also boasts of an extended 15 mm wings (total gain width is 30 mm), modified bumpers, a large spoiler, splitter, diffuser, as well as the trunks Quartet exhaust, alloy 20-inch wheels typical for R-car design, more powerful brakes with blue calipers and additional ventilation slots... Uh, enraged with the "baby" is not a joke! In the interior of the bet is placed also on sports: here's seat with better pronounced lateral support and other instrument panel with tachometer in the center. When you show the product trendwerk? On this question the Germans don't give the answer, however, and so clear that the long wait we don't have - probably in March at the Geneva motor show creators will refuse the word concept in the model name.
