    As we've told you earlier that the new generation of the Volkswagen Beetle is all set to hit Indian shores in December and now the company has teased the new model coming to India on its website. Volkswagen has also opened bookings for the Beetle and you can book yours for an amount of Rs. 1 lakh.

    The car made its way into India in 2009 but didn't quite make a mark when it comes to sales, however, having an iconic car like the Beetle in India will reinforce the company's product portfolio and it's dedication to the Indian customer.
