News / A Bug's Life: Jan Haacke, VW DesignerWe had this New Beetle in between. And it had this image of a quirky car, a feminine car. And when you look at it, it's basically three circles. It's like a kid's drawing with three circles. Also, it lacked direction. So we looked at [the New Beetle] and said, "Yeah, it's a nice car. But what did we do wrong?" Then we looked [at the original], and it had much more direction. We wanted to bring back the old spirit and avoid this toyish character. The roof. To me it's a really modern-looking and wide-looking thing. It's well-executed. I also like the taillights, which to many people appear random. But if you look, they have a history. They appeared on one of the first versions [1967] of the Kaefer, of the Beetle. It had this graphic, and we just turned it 90 degrees. Which gives it a wide look. We really tried to make the car appear as wide and low as possible. The first Beetle is an icon. What are you hoping to achieve with this version? We hope really to jump on the old feelings people had for the first car. But to me, the new Beetle is an icon. We have a strong history with this car, and we really believe in it. What will a fourth-generation Bug be like? That's a tough question. This is what we talk about all day at the office. Maybe shrink it a little bit. Reduce the overhangs even more. Make it as low as possible, although that's something we already did because the tires are so massive. |
