1955 Volkswagen Beetle

In 1955, the bumper was improved and electrical direction-indicators were installed. A second tail-pipe was added. The front seats became wider and could be moved to three different seat-back adjustable positions.

Such was the car’s popularity, both at home and abroad, that the millionth Beetle, with headlamps ablaze, left the Wolfsburg production line in August 1955.
