Summary

  • Twisted Automotive unveils the TBug, a bespoke off-roader inspired by classic Baja Bugs
  • Built from vintage Beetles, each TBug features strengthened chassis, long-travel suspension, and under-80 hp engines
  • The TBug debuts May 29 at Twisted’s Kensington Mews showroom

Twisted Automotive has unveiled its latest Special Project: the TBug, a radically reimagined take on the classic Baja Bug. Inspired by founder Charles Fawcett’s childhood memories of Beetle posters on his sister’s wall, the TBug channels the rebellious spirit of desert racing through a modern lens.

Far from a simple restoration, the TBug starts with a ‘60s to ‘80s air-cooled Beetle and is stripped down to first principles. The chassis is sealed and strengthened, long-travel suspension added and oversized BFG tires fitted for rugged capability. Despite doubling the original horsepower, the TBug stays under 80 hp to maintain a pure, connected driving experience.

“We wanted to capture the honest simplicity of the original Baja Bugs,” said Twisted’s lead engineer Rob, “but filter it through our obsession with engineering excellence.”

Each TBug is bespoke, with no two builds alike. From hand-finished interiors to LED lighting and upgraded brakes, every detail serves a purpose. The TBug will debut May 29 at Twisted’s Kensington Mews showroom, with price available upon request via the automaker’s official site.
