The Beetle for decades has been this iconic cute city car, but never it has been remodelled with 4 electric motors that have Axial Flux AC three-phase motors that have 557 bhp each delivering 2,228 bhp continuously and can be pushed to provide 6,411 bhp with a combined peak which has been adapted to the 2013 Beetle which had a TDI diesel engine at one point in time.
It also gets a custom 22 kWh battery pack built by Current Racing. It has a maximum voltage of 800 volts and can charge 20 kW via the CHAdeMO charger installed on the vehicle. The car gets 4 inverters and it is expected to do 400 meters in 7 seconds.
This car isn’t the first one that was built as its makers already wrecked an electric Beetle which was based on the classic model at 235 km/h so that’s why they had to revert to the 2013 spec of the car for this new build, but clearly, they have left no stone untouched.
