If you want a coupe or convertible that’s stylish, iconic, efficient and slightly more practical than its smaller competitors, the 2017 VW Beetle checks all the right boxes. Throw in a zesty turbocharged engine and sub-$21,000 starting price, and it adds up to a sporty value.
If you plan to regularly seat more than one other person, look to something with a larger back seat such as a Mazda3, Honda Civic or Chevy Cruze hatchback. While the Beetle Dune looks off-road ready, its lack of all-wheel drive won’t take you far off the beaten track.
