In conjunction with the official launch of the all-new Passat in Malaysia, Volkswagen Passenger Cars Malaysia (VPCM) took the opportunity to unveil the most rugged Beetle of all time – the Limited Edition Volkswagen Beetle Dune.

An ode to the legendary American dune buggies of the 1960s and 1970s, the Beetle Dune is bold, cool and tough, all rolled into one, and evokes a sense of never-ending summer adventure.
