2013 VW Beetle TDI

The iconic Volkswagen Beetle, informally called the VW Bug is as well known as any vehicle on the planet. The Beetle is the longest running and most manufactured car of a single design platform in the world. This week we’ll get a chance to test drive a 2013 Volkswagen Beetle Coupe with a diesel powerplant. The diesel is not new to the Beetle as Volkswagen prototyped the first one in 1951. But diesel technology has come a long way and we’ll see how the 2.0-liter turbodiesel Beetle performs in our week of driving.
