This could mean a vacation to the beach, a weekend road trip, or just a Sunday drive around Baton Rouge. But, if all you’re doing is going from the inside of your home to the inside of your car, you aren’t really getting the full experience of being outdoors. If you’re just trading the air conditioner inside your house for the air conditioner in your car, you’re missing out on everything Summer time offers in South Louisiana. Owning a convertible, especially a convertible as iconic as the Volkswagen Beetle, can break down the barriers between you and the outdoors. In fact, here are four reasons owning a Convertible Beetle in Baton Rouge can help you make the most of summer.

A convertible increases visibility

When the top is down on your convertible, you have an unobstructed, 360-degree view around you. All potential blind spots are eliminated, leaving you with a full range of sight.

A convertible comes with the options you find on other vehicles

When you look at the convertible Beetle, one of the first things you will notice is that it has all the comfort and safety amenities that you’ll find on other Volkswagen models. From the rearview camera and parking sensors to the trip computer and touch screen audio system, owning a convertible doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice any features.

A convertible is fun

When was the last time you saw an unhappy person driving around with the top down? There is a feeling of freedom that comes with having the wind blow through your hair and not having to peer through a window to see your surroundings.

A convertible has its own style

It is a look that is simultaneously classic and new. Seeing a convertible with the top down immediately conjures up images of sporty fun and laid-back cool. Think about the convertibles and their drivers you’ve seen in movies and television. Can you think of one that didn’t fit that description? That style comes out even further when talking about the iconic Beetle.

There are many other, intangible reasons to own a convertible, but they all come down to the feeling of driving one with the top down. If you would like to experience that feeling, contact our team at Southpoint Volkswagen, and we’ll be happy to schedule a test drive.
