It was supposed to be a preview of the future design of the New Beetle.
The base of the Ragster (a ragster is the cross between a ragtop and a speedster) was a regular New Beetle Convertible.
They made some changes, such as chopping the top, penning a new U-shaped roof, and creating a unique paint job with silver double stripes.

The interior differs from the original New Beetle, being a 2+2 and having distinctive control dials.
Another item of interest is that the Ragster's rear-view mirror is mounted on its dashboard (a retro feature, reminiscent of the first Type 1s).
The Ragster's profile is lower than that of the prior New Beetle.
