- where, notably, he found fame in 1994 with his design for the radical Concept 1, which evolved into the New Beetle later that decade.
He will give more details of the reinvented Manx next week, but previously spoke of his enthusiasm for the classic buggy’s design: “As a California native, I grew up on the beaches of southern California, surrounded by its unique and creative lifestyle culture. "As I became an automotive designer, the philosophy of Bruce Meyers became a huge inspiration, and I'm sure I'm not alone in thanking him for injecting a huge dose of disruptive creativity into the automotive scene."by Trousdale Ventures CEO Phillip Sarofim suggest that, despite the familiar look, the only unchanged elements of the Manx's design are actually the headlight housings at the front.
He revealed the Manx 2.0 will be sold with a choice of 20kWh and 40kWh battery options, for a range of either 150 or 300 miles, which will send their reserves to a pair of motors at the rear capable of sending the open-sided EV from 0-60mph in a claimed 4.5sec. Depending on battery, the new Manx is claimed to weigh between 680kg and 750kg - which makes it one of the lightest road-legal EVs yet.
