Volkswagen Käfer 1300
(1965 - 1973)
Car articles about Volkswagen Käfer 1300 by year
With the new 40 hp engine, the Beetle caught up with the modern small car competition of the sixties, at least in terms of performance. Together with its outstanding workmanship and proverbial reliability, it was able to hold its own against the competition despite its outdated shape and poor use of space. This historical test report is dedicated to the improved VW for the 1966 model year.
Year after year, the Wolfsburg-based company perfected its Beetle. But in 1965, the performance of the Volkswagen was increased by 18 percent. And this was just one of 22 improvements made to the tried-and-tested everyday car. No wonder the updated Beetle attracted a lot of interest at the time. And to this day, it has blossomed into a popular and sociable classic car. This driving report is dedicated to the VW 1300, which was built between 1965 and 1967. It describes the history of the model, the reviews at the time and today's driving impressions. The report is illustrated with current and historical photographs. The sound samples are of course also included.
For most people, the VW Beetle is the Volkswagen par excellence, in every sense of the word. A car for the people, a people's car. And the Beetle was indeed an above-average success. But before it, Ford's Model T had already passed the 15 million mark, and in modern times the Toyota Corolla, VW Golf and Ford's F-series even managed to reach over 30 million, although they were not the only people's cars to do so. This report looks back at some selected production successes in car history and shows them in 200 pictures. A feast for the eyes!
