The irony of this concept is that we've already seen undisguised spy shots of the production-ready Beetle Cabriolet, rendering it rather pointless. Still, it scraped into the Top 10 because it's such a damn fine thing to look at. Based on the E-Bugster concept shown at the Detroit show in January, but with the roof removed, this speedster version is propelled by the same 114-hp electric motor with batteries where the back seats should be. Don't expect to see an electric Beetle anytime soon, though -- the powertrain is just for show. But a two-seat Beetle with a chopped-down windscreen to sit alongside the four-seat Beetle Cabriolet is reportedly under consideration.
