Although it remained virtually unchanged on the outside, VW continued to develop the Beetle under its high-quality, thick bodywork. For the 1961 model year, the successful model was given a new engine with more displacement and more power with lower fuel consumption. The tester of the "Automobil Illustrierte" magazine was completely enthusiastic about the new 1200cc boxer. This article reproduces the wording of a test report from 1961 and shows the revised VW in historical photos.
