2013 VW Beetle TDI

The latest Beetle (new but no longer “New”) is more than an economy-minded car. It got bigger last year – as well as sportier and more luxurious. Sexy, even. And now the TDI diesel engine – absent from the roster since 2006 – has been reintroduced for 2013. But, again, the emphasis has shifted....

2013 Fiat 500 Abarth
