VW Beetle Special Edition Concepts, Golf SportWagen Alltrack Unveiled: Live Photos

On the eve of the 2015 New York Auto Show, Volkswagen has taken the wraps off four Beetle Special Edition concepts, and announced the production of the Golf SportWagen Alltrack.

Golf SportWagen Alltrack

Confirmed for production, Volkswagen has committed to produce the all-wheel-drive Golf SportWagen Alltrack for the U.S. market in 2016. Volkswagen says both dealers and customers have been clamoring for an all-wheel-drive version of the new Golf SportWagen, and as such, the automaker plans to deliver.

While based on the new Golf SportWagen, the Alltrack will feature an inch higher ride height, Volkswagen's 4Motion all-wheel-drive system, wheel-arch moldings, and flared side sills. Visually, new bumpers will also help set the Alltrack apart from the SportWagen upon which it's based.

In addition to the Golf SportWagen Alltrack, Volkswagen's celebrating 60 years of Beetle heritage with four Special Edition concepts.

Beetle Convertible Denim Concept

The Beetle Convertible Denim concept is a tribute to the Jeans Bug that made its debut in the mid-'70s. As you'd expect, blue is the central theme here with variations of denim colors. The power soft top is finished in a dark blue fabric resembling denim, while the blue metallic paint is meant to mimic stonewash jeans. The exterior is accented by gray bits and there are 18-inch aluminum wheels.

Inside the blue theme carries over with seats, trim, and stitching.

Beetle Pink Color Edition concept

Apparently there's a growing demand for pink Beetles at Volkswagen dealerships, so the automaker is answering the call with this Beetle Pink Color Edition concept. While shown as a coupe, a convertible model could also be sold alongside it in dealers if demand is shown for this concept.
