    That car seems tiny! How do people fit in there.

      Bugs don’t waste a lot of space on interior pieces. They’re from an era before crumple zones and air bags. There’s usually plenty of room for people around 2 meters tall in the front seats, not so much in the back seats (if they exist). I can testify that certain acts in the back of a Volkswagen beetle are as uncomfortable as Mallrats claimed, but far from impossible.

      Well, haha… Beetles weren’t exactly known for their size.

      They were hugely popular around the world for a while… maybe most of the 60’s & 70’s?

          I guess the more recent, relevant bit of history is that VW was faking up their emissions tests within the last 10yrs IIRC.
