The Beetles are being delivered in special custom boxes to their new owners.
One of these owners is car collector Joaquin Jasso, who told news website Expansion that it was “very simple, it took me barely three minutes to buy,” the $21,000 vehicle.
The Beetle was first conceived of in the 1930s as a “car for everyone,” at the behest of Adolf Hitler and with a design team led by Ferdinand Porsche. However, it did not enter widespread production until after World War II.
Its popularity over the ensuing decades made it the most recognized car model in the world, but production was stopped. The “New Beetle” was released in 1997, but years of declining sales led to Volkswagen nixing the car from production this July.
The factory in Puebla manufactured from 1.7 million “New Beetles” between the vehicle’s redesign in 1997 and 2019. The very last Beetle ever made was brought to the Volkswagen Museum in Puebla.
