Description

VW 'Pretzel' Beetle - dark matte green

The Pretzel Beetle shied away from flashing bright colours

Not a time of flashy colours, 1946 was a year where dark paintwork dominated the deliveries of the first post-war generation of the VW Beetle. The narrow pretzel window above the bonnet on the rear gave this first Beetle its signature name. While the view through the rear window was severely obstructed for the passengers, the Pretzel Beetle wrote the first chapter of an unprecedented success story that ultimately made future series of Beetles synonymous with the mobilisation of Germany.

1946

Draped in colours typical of the post-war age

Body wheel and chassis with bumper dark matt green, interior with steering wheel orange-brown. Hump wheel rim salmon red with dark green hubcab, ornamental strips on the bumper also salmon red.
