The Beetle has been discontinued. The reason for its discontinuation is primarily due to its lack of practicality. Despite its unique and adorable design that appeals to many female consumers, the Beetle struggles to meet the modern consumer demands in terms of comfort, cost-effectiveness, and features. This reflects the market principle of survival of the fittest. The last model of the Beetle was the 2019 edition. There were three variants in the 2019 lineup, each with different powertrain specifications. Below are the details: 1. 2019 180TSI Collector's Edition: Powered by a 1.2T inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, delivering a maximum power of 77KW and a peak torque of 175N·m. 2. 2019 280TSI Collector's Edition: Equipped with a 1.4T inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, producing a maximum power of 110KW and a peak torque of 250N·m. 3. 2019 180TSI Classic Edition: Features a 1.2T inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, coupled with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, offering a maximum power of 77KW and a peak torque of 175N·m.
