Its not a beetle but it is a VW.
Volkswagen's all-electric ID. R has smashed the record time up the Goodwood Hillclimb, cutting 1.7 seconds from the time set by Nick Heidfeld in a 1998 McLaren Formula 1 car.
Driven by Romain Dumas, the ID. R is the first car ever to complete the climb in less than 40 seconds. The hillclimb record comes after the ID. R set a new marker for electric cars around the Nurburgring Nordschleife, knocking 40 seconds from the existing EV record.
The car's 6:05.336 lap time around the Green Hell is also six seconds faster than Stefan Bellof's long-standing outright lap record in a Porsche 956, although the 919 Evo has since moved the goalposts on for Porsche.
