Volkswagen is planning to launch the Fiat 500 rival Beetle hatch in India by early December 2009.

Volkswagen Beetle will be imported from its Mexican plant for sale in Indian market. There is no information about the price of the car.

Beetle is one of the most successful models that Volkswagen ever created and the critics had predicted a complete failure due to its peculiar styling, underpowered motor, rough ride and noisy engine.

The group has two plans in India at Aurangabad and Chakan which assembles cars of its three brands including Skoda, Audi and Volkswagen.

Volkswagen is also planning to launch the small car Polo by early next year.

VW is looking at full-capacity production at this plant by 2012 and in order to strengthen its workforce, it is planning to more than double the India headcount with addition of 1,500 employees at Chakan alone in Maharashtra.

The group had earlier announced a target of 8-10 per cent share of the Indian passenger car market.
