The Beetle Elcon is a rare and unusual variant of the classic Volkswagen Beetle, likely referring to an economy-spec model produced for specific markets. These stripped-back versions—similar to the “Elcon Beetles” found in the Philippines or “Sparkafer” models in Germany—were built with affordability in mind, omitting non-essential features while retaining the core Beetle charm.
This particular example features several unique details that set it apart: No rear quarter window air vents. 4-stud wheels with basic hubcaps.A squared-off engine lid with no ventilation slots
Inside, it carries the expected minimalist trim, similar to other economy variants, which often came with short headliners and simplified interiors.
A rare find and a talking point for any collector, the Beetle Elcon represents an interesting chapter in the global history of Volkswagen’s beloved icon.
