The 2010 Volkswagen Beetle 2.5L serves as the base trim for this model. The 2.5L is powered by a 2.5-liter, 150-horsepower inline five-cylinder engine mated to a five-speed manual transmission (a six-speed automatic is available) that gets 20 city/28 highway mpg.

The Beetle 2.5L's exterior features include heated windshield-washer nozzles, heated body-color mirrors with integrated turn signals, daytime running lights, projector lens halogen headlamps, dual-tone horn, body-color grille, and door handles, mid-mounted third stop lamp, and anti-intrusion door beams.

The 2.5L's interior features include CFC-free air conditioning, cruise control, power windows, heated front seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, brake handle, and shift knob, anti-theft system with vehicle immobilizer, brake-pad wear indicator, tire pressure monitoring system, two folding keys with radio-frequency remote transmitter, power locks with automatic locking feature, two SAE power outlets, fully reclining front seats with manual height and angle adjustments, a one-piece folding rear seat, V-Tex seat trim, fully carpeted luggage compartment, and an in-dash single-CD stereo with MP3 capability, auxiliary input jack, and SIRIUS Satellite Radio.

The power-folding soft top comes in either black or white with a color-keyed boot. Unique 17-inch wheels are a factory option for the Convertible, which costs $8,000 more than the hard-top trim.
