Volkswagen Beetle
Inspired by the legendary Bug, the Beetle can be equipped with one of three different engines. The 2.5 has a 170-hp 2.5L 5-cylinder. The 2.0 TSI is powered by a 200-hp 2.0L 4-cylinder. To round out the offer, this year there’s a diesel version, which also features a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine paired with 6-speed manual or dual-clutch automatic transmissions.
