Last Classic VW Beetle Produced Today
The very last rear-engined Beetle to be produced rolled off the assembly line at a Volkswagen plant in Puebla, Mexico. Its production spans eight decades, and over 21 million units were produced. It's truly the end of an era.
See coverage by the BBC and the VOA.
