Oh yeah, these things are deathtraps.
Not even just in crashes. Think of all the physical assaults and sore arms that would ensue if these took back to the streets en masse.
100% the reason VW hasn't done an electric version yet.
They could modernize the underlying structure to keep the same body shape while massively improving safety like they did in the 2000s. It already has a curved hood for pedestrians, and the main issue with the originals was the front end collapsing like tin foil in an accident.
Yeah it's not like the WV Westfalia that had you sit over the front wheel where the only choice for crumple zones was your legs.
When they made the new beattle it had a very similar shape as well. I see no reasons why it couldn't be made with modern safety standards with very minimal changes to the exterior body. Obviously, I'm not a member of the SAE.
I worked with a guy that had one of the last Mexican made Bugs. It was just as I remembered the old ones but all new and fresh. I was jealous. it's a damn shame they stopped making them. Would be cool to make them electric cars
i just remembered in highschool as a senior prank 8 of us picked up a teachers Bug and put it in the Gym
Well you sure aren't doing that with an EV larger than a Powerwheels
Edit: fixed a dumb typo
Brilliant.
