The Traditional Flower Vase Returns
The special edition "The Beetle Blossom" arrives just before spring, when flowers begin to bloom. Based on "The Beetle Design," the entry-grade model, it is characterized by its unified interior and exterior colors.
The colors offered are the spring-like "Pure White," "Tornado Red," and "Denim Blue." The seats and trim are color-coordinated accordingly. The white and red models feature a two-tone combination of black and red, while the blue model has soft beige for its seats and trim.
Additionally, the flower vase, a feature of the previous "New Beetle" model, has been revived on the dash panel. Inserting seasonal flowers will create a bright and cheerful interior space.
Other features include heated seats, Park Distance Control which detects obstacles front and rear and alerts the driver with warning sounds, and the "Keyless Access" system, allowing the doors to be unlocked and the engine started without taking the key out of a bag.
Sales are limited to 150 units each of Pure White, Tornado Red, and Denim Blue, for a total of 450 units. The price is 2.85 million yen, an increase of 201,000 yen from the base grade.
