Volkswagen Käfer 1302
(1970 - 1975)
Car articles about Volkswagen Käfer 1302 by year
In August 1970, the VW 1302 appeared with a new chassis, longer wheelbase, larger trunk and more powerful engines. The progress made on the new Beetle was commendable, but problems and criticisms remained. This historical test sheds light on the peculiar car that wanted to break out of its Beetle shell but could not and was not allowed to.
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!
Up until the 1970s, the VW Beetle was not only a popular car, but performance upgrades to its engine were also common. One person who was particularly colorful was Theo Decker, who helped the 1302 S achieve 135 hp and performance that is still striking today. We take a look back at the days of Beetle tuning and tell you what the cure felt like behind the wheel.
