If you’re looking for distinctive styling in a well-equipped small car, the 2014 VW Beetle not only offers it, it does so with a wide choice of engines, options and colors.
Exclusivity has its price. If you need a vehicle that can regularly fit four passengers, a 4-door Mini Cooper Countryman or Fiat 500L makes a better choice. Also, if you like a car that lets you pick and choose your options, VW’s trim-specific packaging may frustrate your creative side.
