Fanwagen Beetle and T1, Facebook-Themed Vehicles

Posted by on Nov 28, 2011 in FOUR WHEELS

The ‘Fanwagen T1′ and the ‘Fanwagen beetle’ are 2 facebook-themed vehicles that Volkswagen The Netherlands will produce as a one-off edition, an advertising campaign for which two vehicles  are reinterpreted according to ‘facebook-related’ functionality so  the horn is replaced by the ‘poke’ button,  ‘made to grasp the attention of other drivers’. The door handles of the vehicle are labeled with ‘add friends’,  while a bulletin board ‘wall’ on the side doors of either model lets users leave ‘posts’ and even photos using the included  instant camera. the ‘inbox’ (glove compartment) offers a way ‘to store all of your private messages’ with the instruction,  ‘to remove a message, take it out of the inbox’.

Residents of The Netherlands will have until December 18th 2011 to enter the ‘Fanwagen lottery’ and take a chance to win. As per the price, . the ‘T1′ was selected in favor of the ‘beetle’ by almost 33,000Volkswagen fans to be converted into the one-off edition. A full user manual has been created for both the T1 and for the Beetle, here you can download user manual for the t1 and here the user manual for the beetle.
