Volkswagen New Beetle Ragster Concept
New Beetle Ragster In a nutshell
World premiere – the hottest Beetle ever Study of the New Beetle Ragster with a roof lowered by 150 millimeters Large-sized ragtop, newly designed exterior, racing car bucket seats, cargo area • Wolfsburg / Detroit. It’s a statement, an automotive way of life. More than 800.000 drive one, the Volkswagen with the perhaps most famous design in the world: the New Beetle. For the North American International Auto Show in Detroit the German company presents the hot potential of the design classic – with a study on the New Beetle Ragster. Its most visible characteristic: a drastically dropped roof with a large ragtop. • Ragtop + Speedster = Ragster The development team based the Ragster on the reinforced convertible, shortening the Apillars by about 90 millimeters and creating a set u-shaped roof fixing for the Ragtop’s frame. It becomes instantly clear where the „Hot Rod“ with its ragtop and speedster dimensions got its name. • New design: The Ragster shows new visual ways. And this does not only hold true for the top. The fenders, bumpers, headlights, tail lights and 19” aluminum rims are all newly designed as well and more progressive and sporty than ever. Newly designed interior: Racing car bucket seats, sports car type steering wheel with integrated engine start button (right side) and ragtop control (left side), center console and the extremely clean designed cargo area. • Power? Anything goes: The drive - A powerful gasoline engine or a high torque TDI are imaginable. Although it has yet to be determined which motor will be built and if the study will be produced in series – Anything goes. Just as in New Beetle Ragster / NAIAS 2005 / Volkswagen / 2 Concept 1, the study on the New Beetle, which also started in Detroit. - A great place for a world premiere…

Its strange how they designed the new beetle to represent the old one, and to re-live the legend, but now theyve successfully done that they make stuff like this which completely ignores the fact that its a modernised VW Beetle. They should realy leave it alone and keep the concept cars for something else.

The only word to describe this car is "silly." Beetles should be cute or fun, but no delusions of Porschehood, please.
