Next Beetle?

Seems that someone at VW doesn't want to kill the new Beetle after the current model.

Good news.

These Stehrenberger illustrations show a very different car. With a sort of sedan/wagon type model as well.

I've seen these sketches, but assumed they were for some other model. I've been curious as to what, exactly, could be done with the New Beetle...

VWs got itself a bit stuck. Change the iconic design and keep or change the name?
