The Volkswagen Beetle is a compact economy car with a 2-door saloon and 2-door convertible body style options. It is also known as the Volkswagen Type 1, Super Beetle, Bug, Superbug, Kafer, VW 1200, 1300, 1500, 1302/1303, Garbus, Fusca, and Carocha. Adolf Hitler was actually the one who created the concept of the peoples' car with the objectives of having a cheap, simple car that needed to be produced for his country's new road network. It was first intended to be used by the members of the National Socialist party but was later used as a military vehicle. Though the Beetles vehicle design was first created for World War II, it started to really sell towards the end of the 1940s. From 1938-2003 15,444,858 Beetles were produced in Germany, 330,251 of them were Cabriolets. The Cabriolet was produced in 1949 by Wilhelm Karmann as a four-seat convertible.
