front end (new) This larger Beetle was sold as SUPER BEETLE
offering nearly 43% more luggage capacity, up from 140 liters in
front to 260 (remaining at 140 in back)[64] A new MacPherson strut
front suspension was incorporated, similar to what was used in the
Type 4, and the front track was widened. The new suspension layout
allowed the spare tire to be positioned flat under the trunk floor.
To gain additional trunk volume, the under-dash panel was lowered,
allowing the fuel tank to be shifted rearward. From the windscreen
back the big SUPER Beetle was identical to its smaller progenitor,
except for having the also new semi-trailing arm rear suspension as
standard equipment. Overall, the bigger Beetle was 50 mm (2.0 in)
longer, 35 mm (1.4 in) wider, and rode on a 20 mm (0.79 in)-longer
wheelbase. The larger motor 1600cc, is standard was fitted with
brake drums that were slightly larger than the standard Beetle. The
