The Volkswagen Type 1, or Beetle, was first introduced in 1938. The Type 1 was the result of the Third Reich's vision for a 'Volks Wagen' (meaning People's Car in English), an inexpensive and simple car for the German public. Engineered by Ferdinand Porsche, the rear engined Type 1 was a revolution in packaging and design when it was released. The Type 1 Beetle has become a cultural icon since its creation, and is one of the world's most produced cars. The Beetle was sold as a sedan or convertible, although it is common to find many Beetles modified to different body styles. Many variants have been offered over the years, with one of the most well known being the Super Beetle. The Type 1 remained in production until 2003, ending its 65 year production run, although sales of the Type 1 Beetle ended in 1979 for the US and Canada.
