FactsEdit

• Fact 1: The Volkswagen Type 1, or Beetle, was produced continuously from 1938 to 2003. More than 21 million Beetles were built, making it the most-manufactured car in history.
• Fact 2: Originally designed by Erwin Komenda and Karl Rabe for Porche, the Type I was unveiled as the Kraft durch Freude-Wagen (from the German for "Strength Through Joy") by Adolf Hitler in 1938.
• Fact 3: The air-cooled rear engine of the Beetle is reliable and easily-repaired, making it a favorite among auto modifiers and particularly well-suited for dry, hot environments.
• Fact 4: Though the first Baja Bug was built in California in 1968, Nazi engineers built notably similar off-road versions of the Beetle for use in Africa during WWII.
• Fact 5: California cartoonist Dave Deal entered the first racing Baja Bug in the 1968 Mexican 1000, a race running the length of the Baja California peninsula.
