As much as I'm not a fan of the new beetle look, those are pretty sweet
Imagine one lifted with a big type 4 donk

They look interesting. They seem to be an old air-cooled Beetle chassis with a body which looks a bit like a New Beetle. No actual New Beetle
mechanical parts.

There built on the 90s mexican beetle/vocho balljoint/swing axle floor pans and have the standard 1600 fuel injected engine.
VW shut them down due to copy right issues by the looks of things.
