A Brief History of the Beetle
Originally introduced in 1945 as the "Volkswagen" (German for "People’s Car"), the Type 1 Beetle became a global icon. Its unique shape earned it nicknames like Käfer, Vocho, Fusca, and Coccinelle across different cultures. More than 21.5 million units of the first-generation Beetle were sold, making it one of the best-selling cars in history.
Thanks to its reliable air-cooled engine, affordability, and counter-culture appeal, the Beetle became a symbol of freedom and individuality — especially in the U.S. After decades of production, Volkswagen officially ended the Beetle’s run in 2019, 70 years after its American debut.
