Car Tech - 2014 VW Beetle R-Line

The Beetle Turbo is now the basic Beetle, so the sportier version of the Beetle Turbo is dubbed the Beetle R-Line. Brian Cooley drives it and checks the tech.

I own the 2013 Turbo Beetle I did some mods so I have 150 up. But got 276 Tq. with the mods It's scream off the line, did coil overs with sticky tires big improvement on turns, instead of buying those expensive lamps I put HID super night blue. instead of Fender I went with 1 single Kicker L7 8" sub with 1200 watts mono. because of shape of trunk the bass hit like a 2 12's other than all the other mods I did the car drives very fun and gets way better gas than what they say, I get 33 city and 41 freeway even after all my Velocity off the line.

Another entertaining review...nice to see him test a car that most Americans can actually afford...he has not done alot of that over the last year or so (and I think I have seen every review he has done over that time frame).

Other then he is funny, intelligent and clearly knows/loves cars - I think the best thing about Cooley is he will say something is terrible and then turn around and say  something is wonderful about the same car. It's like he does not pre judge it and let that lessen his opinion about the whole car.
 That impresses me.
I wish people treated people like that.

I just drove a Beetle for a few days and Cooley is spot on with the performance. The power is great but when you try to push it, it goes all over the place with its stock suspension. It's got a ton of potential for modding though. I wouldn't mind driving around in this after replacing a few components.

I have a 2012 2.0tsi e888 Gen 1 ( wish I had the rline with the Gen 3 mqb 2.0tsi) with a cts ko4 turbo, fbo, untronic ots stage 2+ and tcu tune.. 300whp ( conservative tune, 20 lbs of boost)

Puts a smile on my face every time I get behind the wheel

This car look like the result of Porsche and the old Beetle have one night stand.

I think the comments on here about it looking like it has been designed by posche is a bit weird afterall they designed the original too though maybe most people don't realise that.

I just bought a 2014 VW Beetle 1.8 and I love it.

[klavier]

I have a GTI currently but I would drive this car. I like the way it looks now, doesn't look like a chick car anymore.

[melvinr]

wow did Cooley just take a shot at the iphone screen size?

[alex]

You can always count on Cooley to make a good video.

Call me crazy, but I see a little Porsche in ext.

Can you do a review on 2015 ford mustang

[lubano]

Where's Antuane? We need more of him

[charlesw]

It's certainly a beefier version of the Beetle in looks and performance.

[yipman]

How much is the car's ground clearance?

[seb]

911 is more Beetle than this. I didn't even know they moved the engine to the front, when did that happen?

[ramonj]

I want VW to make a rear engined beetle. They should have never changed it to a FF layout.

[huntershifflett]

Does anyone know if the Beetle TDI has the limited slip differential?

[SoccerBoi]

Cmon man can't skip the fresh wheels and the bi-xenons those are a couple of the only redeeming qualities
