Technology and entertainment features of the Bug
The Bug is equipped with lots of great technology and entertainment. Listed below are some of its features:

down to turn a knob for the radio. A touch screen navigator and radio is much easier. Bluetooth
would make it easier to talk on the phone without having to hold a cell phone.
