Very few people are lucky enough to see a beetle in its dehydrated state; this makes it easier for shipping, and usually the dealer will 'unpack' the beetle.

If you somehow receive a dehydrated beetle, just add water and it should unfold into the shape people are more familiar with (fair warning: make sure you do it outside, it's a one time process)

Beetle sphere takes the vehicle’s iconic curves to the extreme. Responding to the car’s loaded political history and signature design, the work features the twentieth-century design classic warped into a sphere comprised of authentic and fabricated components. To avoid the damage involved in reshaping a real car, Noor carved a spherical polyurethane replica of the vehicle’s body and then cast it in aluminium. A separate spherical interior was produced and fit to the cast exterior. The resulting sculpture is augmented with original car parts by the manufacturer to complete the illusion.

neat!

I can’t remember of there’s multiple of these, but if not, I saw the same one in Vegas during an F1 event.

It's a rolly polly

Please crush suvs in spheres next 🙏🙏

The King of All Cosmos is gonna use this to create the Volkswagen constellation.

Interesting was it always like that or they crushed a car?

Oh that's what happened to my car when I got cutoff by that damn red monolith memes always talk about.

First decent looking one I have seen.
