Behind the scenes of the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, there was a persistent rumor that Volkswagen would think seriously about producing a limited edition of its Beetle Dune concept.

In 2000, the German manufacturer presented a similar concept based on the New Beetle.

The vehicle is distinguished by its raised ground clearance, its protective aluminum plates under the vehicle, rear spoiler, 19-inch sport wheels, and its half-moon shaped flush-mounted headlights.

Under the hood, there is a four-cylinder 2.0-litre TSI that develops 210 horsepower.
