Volkswagen capitalized on the overwhelming popularity of their Beetle by following "the people's car"with a sporty sister: the Karmann Ghia. Produced from 1956 to 1974, he Volkswagen Karmann Ghia shared the Beetle's reliable running gear, ut its low curb weight meant that the Karmann Ghia could still be a fun drive on the right road. But speed wasn't what the Karmann Ghia was about. Instead, he KG's strong suit was style, he coachwork was hand built by renowned German firm Karmann, he end result was a low-slung 2+2 coupe. The public's response to the car's introduction was so positive that production doubled shortly thereafter and the Karmann Ghia quickly became one of America's most imported vehicles. while safety regulations motivated most of the car's remaining visual changes. Mechanical alterations were mainly dictated by changes to the Beetle's engine. Displacement increased in 1966 to 1300 cc, ith horsepower rising to 50.
