2012 Volkswagen Beetle Test Drive & Car Review
http://www.autobytel.com/volkswagen/beetle/2012/ The 2012 Volkswagen Beetle is lower, wider, and more masculine than the previous generation. The Beetle has a base price of $18,495 and comes with 2 different engine options. The first is a 2.5 liter engine which got a nice power bump over the previous generation. Now this 2.5 liter 5-cylinder puts out 170 horsepower and 177 lb-ft. of torque while netting 22 MPG in the city and 31 MPG on the highway. The second engine type is the turbo 2.0 liter engine that is found in a bunch of other Volkswagen cars like the GTI. This engine is a 2.0 liter 4-cylinder that produces 200 horsepower and 207 lb-ft. of torque while managing 22 MPG in the city and 30 MPG on the highway. The 2012 Volkswagen Beetle is back and better than ever. Volkswagen has produced a car that is sleek, fast, and stylish. This Beetle should become a great selling vehicle for VW.

► 2012 VW Beetle CRASH TEST
The passenger compartment remained stable in the frontal impact. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees and femurs of the driver and passenger. However, the steering column was believed to pose a risk to occupants of different sizes and to those sat in different positions. In the side barrier test, the Beetle scored maximum points, providing good protection to all body areas. In the more sever side pole test, protection of the chest was adequate and that of other body areas was good. The seat and head restraint provided good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision.
