Volkswagen Beetle(VW kodok) and its history

This unique car is a Volkswagen Beetle, or Volkswagen Type 1 is a small car manufactured by Volkswagen. Also known as the VW Beetle in Indonesia or the Bug in the United States, or Käfer in Germany. VW Beetle is one of the most easily recognized cars in the world, due to its distinctive shape.

VW Beetle was produced from 1938 to 2003, although it was stopped by World War II. In this long span of time, more than 21 million VW Beetles were made.

In an international poll for the most influential car awards, the VW Beetle was ranked fourth after the Ford Model T, Mini and Citroën DS.

VW Beetle is a very legendary car. Citing the page of the iconic VW Heritage Car with its rounded shape was first conceived in 1931 when Ferdinand Porsche and Zundapp developed the Porsche Type 12 or 'Auto fur Jedermann', which means' Car for All

Ferdinand Porsche developed a flat-cooled 4-cylinder flat engine, while Zundapp developed a water-cooled 5-cylinder radial engine.





In 1933, Adolf Hitler commissioned Porsche to develop a People's Car in Germany called Volks Wagen. The car can accommodate two adults and two children with space for their luggage. Not grandiose, the VW Beetle at that time could only travel a maximum speed of 100 km / hour.

Launching from Time, the VW beetle is a symbol of the revival of the post-war German economy and an increase in the welfare of the middle class.

In 1955, the millionth Beetle unit had rolled off the assembly line in the city of Wolfsburg, Volkswagen's headquarters in Germany. However, the production of the Volkswagen Beetle at Wolfsburg ended in 1978 when VW was preoccupied with the Golf model.

However, the age of the VW Beetle was still long. Beetle production rolled back in Mexico from 1967 to 2003. The New Beetle was later made by modifying the Golf platform to bring the 1997 retro car under CEO Ferdinan Piech, grandson of Ferdinan Porsche.

New VW Golf got an update in 2012. At that time the car was made a little leaner.

Until finally, the last VW Beetle was produced in Puebla, Mexico, Wednesday (07/10/2019) yesterday. Forbes reported, VW Beetle sales declined since 2013, so VW decided to end production
