The company plans to sell two special models of the iconic car, the Final Edition SE and Final Edition SEL which will be a couple and a convertible. The good news- VW executives are open to having it brought back in the future, when consumer trends are in favor of smaller vehicles. Chrysler stopped making small cars recently and Ford has announced it will kill off it’s small car lines as well. Read more here: BBC
