Unmatched Handling and Control

The Beetle doesn't just look the part; it performs with precision. With aluminum cylinders and stainless shafts, its oil shocks offer smooth and responsive damping throughout the entire stroke range. The high-grip compound tires, designed with a new tread pattern, provide exceptional traction, while the lightweight one-piece wheel structure enhances maneuverability. The integrated radio box ensures seamless cable management, accommodating a variety of modern battery shapes and sizes.
