Twisted Gets in on Baja VW Remaster Action with TBug

More known for their Land Rover Defender remasters, UK firm Twisted has expanded their scope with the introduction of the T Bug. Why’d they do it? “Because it’s cool.”

Built on a Volkswagen Beetle from the ’60s to the ’80s, Twisted does what the great remasters do by stripping it down, then builds it back. In this case, the chassis is sealed and strengthened, long-travel suspension is fitted… not to mention the iconic Baja bug bodywork.

Interestingly, they keep power on a level consistent with the original Baja Bug – double the original power, yet still “under 80 horses”. However, the driving experience and attention to quality are significantly augmented. The net effect is a markedly higher grade experience that’s still true to what it was.
