Volkswagen bet on green technology at the 2012 NAIAS. The German brand unveiled the E-Bugster concept, a two-seater concept which blends iconic Beetle styling with zero-emissions motoring.
The E-Bugster gets his name from the mixture of “E” for electric, “Bug,” the American nickname for the Beetle, and “speedster,” which typically describes an open-top two-seater.
The electric concept is powered by electric motor with a total output of 114hp (85kW) and 199 pound-feet of torque. The energy is supplied by a lithium-ion battery, ensuring that the car is able to run more than 100 miles in zero emissions driving. It is stored under the trunk floor and the rear bench, and weighs 695 pounds.
Volkswagen has called the electric drive unit used in the E-Bugster “Blue-e-motion,” a name that in the future will be labeling products such as the Golf Blue-e-Motion.
