VW captured major attention and significant sales when it brought out its New Beetle in 1998. As the Bug’s popularity
began to flag, new versions such as the Turbo S were unveiled. But what could generate renewed interest more than a
convertible model? When the droptop Bug hit the streets in 2002, heads were turning and wallets were being reached for
once again. The Beetle convertible comes in GL and GLS trim levels. As with other VWs, the GLX model has been
discontinued for 2004. The GL and GLS can be equipped with a 115-hp, 2.0-liter four-cylinder or a 150-hp, 1.8-liter
turbocharged inline four. A five-speed manual transmission is standard, and a six-speed automatic is optional. New color
combinations are added for 2004-along with new wheels-and a Monsoon audio system is now standard on the GLS. The
power top comes down in 13 seconds.
