VW Beetle needs no introduction; rather the brand speaks its class (Beetle). The people’s car since its introduction in the 1950’s has offered various designs and models (The Thing, Passat, Cabrio, Golf, Jetta, etc). Now its time for you to add another name to your ‘Beetle’, I’ll call it the ‘green’ electric Beetle. If you have or can arrange an old ‘Bug’ for yourself, here is how you can convert the old bug into a complete electric powered car. Though, the entire setup costs $29,995, but I’m sure those increasing oil prices take away half of your sleep.
With this electric powered bug you will be able to make it from San Franciso to New York and back at the cost of a mere $112. The travel will cost around two cents a mile, yet you could reach 75 mph and with a range of 70 Km, that is not bad going.
