The Volkswagen Beetle All Over Again

.
             The reason the beetle was so popular in the sixties was because it was entirely the opposite of every other car on the streets at that time. And during that particular decade that was exactly what many people wanted. The sixties were a time of rebellion, from Vietnam protests to feminism. The Volkswagen beetle served as a sign of rebellion as well, with its engine in the back, and a shape and size unlike any other car. It was different, therefore people loved it.
             Another thing that made the beetle different from other cars was that the Volkswagen beetle was huggable,.
             which explains its nickname the "love bug." It was cute and cuddly, and in a time where peace and love were striven for, the beetle fit the era perfectly. Unfortunately the rage of the sixties came to an end and with that the beetle lost its esteem as well. The car stopped selling and Volkswagen, no longer able to produce the car, discontinued the model. .
             Thirty years later it was decided by the general population that the world could not live without the Volkswagen beetle. People longed for the love bug of the past. Designing a new car that would fill the shoes of the old was quite a difficult task but in 1998 the new and improved beetle was introduced. .
             Things have changed since the old Volkswagen beetle.
             reigned the streets in the sixties and the beetle has too. The new beetle isn't the same as the old beetle; the engine is in the front, it drives quietly, and there is more than enough headroom. Unlike the old beetle that would sporadically fish tail off the road, the new beetle drives well and is easy to maneuver. On the inside the new beetle comes set with appealing, user-friendly touches such as automatic windows, sun roofs, and an air conditioning system that actually works. .
             The new Volkswagen beetle was designed to fit well into the modern day, unlike the beetle that fit well into the sixties. It must compete with other cars on the market, and therefore must embody features of the modern-day automobile such as speed, efficiency, and most importantly comfort and console.
