Who has not seen these beautiful cars in the streets or have played "yellow beetle, Bam! -Burst-"? Many love it (I include myself) and others hate it, like everything in this life.
Characteristics
The beetle is a car of German manufacture between the years ** 1938 and 1978 ** and then continued manufacturing in Mexico until ** 2003 ** has been the car with more production time in history, despite maintaining the same appearance for years (few modifications were made, between ** 1954 to 1969 ** only had modified the rear hood), where if there was more change was in the engine and other mechanical parts of the car.
The beetle had a 4-cylinder engine boxer traction rear air-cooled, the body has 2 doors with a flat front windshield, has a capacity of 4 passengers, luggage can be stored in the front case of the car and the seat of behind, the body is fixed to a nearly flat chassis.
The engine, transmission and cylinder head are built in light alloy, an engine oil cooler (located on the engine fan cover) "guarantees the correct operating temperature and the long life of the engine, in its model starts it was carbureted and then offering admission air regulator (choke) automatic, then in their last years already offered a beetle with electronic injection and air,
In the 65 years that the production lasted, the sedan had several different motorizations. These were:
** 800cc; 900cc; 1100cc; 1200cc; 1300cc; 1302cc; 1500cc; 1600cc carburetor and ignition with platinum;
1600cc carburetor and electronic ignition;
1600Cc carburetor and electronic ignition and with the revolutionary catalytic converter;
1600Cc of electronic injection with generator and catalytic converter;
1600Cc of electronic injection with alternator and catalytic converter. **
The beetle was a reliable car, cheap, easy to repair and very durable as it is a car under compression, it is practically indestructible and cooled by air!, We no longer see it, simply, its simple mechanics makes it look attractive without a doubt some, I'm a big fan of them and I guess I'm getting old, I hope you liked my post people from the other screen haha hahaha.
