1966 · 🇩🇪 Germany · 40 hp
The Beetle 1300 used a 1285cc air-cooled flat-four producing 40 hp, slotting between the entry-level 1200 and the 1500. Introduced in 1966 as a mid-range variant, it offered modest improvement in highway performance while retaining the iconic rear-engine, air-cooled simplicity that made the Beetle a global staple.
