Description[]
The Volkswagen "Baja Bug" depicts a stripped-out Volkswagen Beetle modified for off-road usage. It appears to act as a spiritual successor to the original 1983 Baja Bug casting.
The tire rack found on the roof of the 2019 variation can be removed.
The casting was retooled in 2022 for use in the mainline. Changes include a new bull bar up front, a roof rack and new off-road lights.
