The guys around the Japanese tuning team from Alpil from Japan have released one of their new body kits for the 2015 TOKYO AUTO SALON that we absolutely have to show you! Visually, this wide construction monster beats just 5 floors above KBR Motorsports VW Beetle and shows how aggressive even a good Beetle can appear if you want to. For the tuning, a current VW Beetle 5C was used as the base vehicle, which after the transformation hardly reminds of the staid vehicle from the VW Group.
After the tuning cure that the Beetle was allowed to endure, it is now much more exciting, more individual and also more dynamic than the production version and should certainly have one or the other additional PS, but unfortunately we are not yet aware of this. Incidentally, we found two versions, one with a set of Porsche rims and one with a set of unknown 5-spoke aluminum rims in the body color.
If you are thinking of buying a VW Beetle 5C in the future or already own one, Alpil, as a supplier of optics, is certainly an interesting starting point when it comes to differentiating the vehicle from the production model. As for the changes made to the optics or the technology, we have already been able to find out the first details. As usual, we have listed what we know below in a summary. If you discover any further changes that we have not listed, just use the comment box and let us know!

Note: We ask for your understanding if not all tuning details are optimally translated. Sometimes we receive the information about the vehicles in a wide variety of national languages and we have our dear need to conjure up something understandable from it. We are always grateful for corrections, so don't be afraid to share them.
