Both the old and the new Beetles will handle snow well due to them both having the engines over the drive wheels. Front wheel drive cars (new Beetles) and rear engine rear wheel drive cars (classic Beetles) have excellent traction in rain and snow. Getting a good tire will help either of these cars in ice and snow, get a good ice and snow rated tire.
They are originally from Germany, hope that answers your question.
Volkswagen Beetles have 4 cylinders.
I have an 2004 New Beetle turbo (not a convertible). It does really great in the snow EXCEPT when the snow is higher than the bumper, it does fine going straight but when you try and turn (say, pulling into your driveway) it has problems. Other than that mine has done well. Thinking about investing in some snow tires this year though.

The VW Beetles commonly referred to as Shamu Cruisers were created by Craftsman Industries.
All VW Beetles have two doors.

At the VW de Mexico plant in Puebla, Mexico.
The Volkswagen Jetta is equipped with the facilities to drive well in the snow. However, it requires that snow tires be bought and put on before performing at full capacity.
