From Beetle to Beach Bum: The Enduring Allure of the Karmann Ghia Type 14

1963 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia

A Match Made in Automotive Heaven: The History of the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia Type 14 in the USA

The 1950s were a decade of post-war optimism and a burgeoning love affair with the automobile. In the United States, chrome gleamed, fins flared, and tailfins reached for the sky. Yet, amidst the extravagance, a little German car with a quirky charm began to capture hearts. This was the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia Type 14, a car that would leave an indelible mark on American automotive culture.

The story of the Karmann Ghia Type 14 begins not in Germany, but in Italy. Volkswagen, fresh off the success of the utilitarian Beetle, craved a sportier offering. They approached Luigi Segre of Carrozzeria Ghia, a renowned Italian design house, with a simple request: clothe the Beetle's mechanicals in a stylish new body. Segre's design was a masterpiece of elegant simplicity. The bulbous Beetle shape was transformed into a sleek coupe, featuring a flowing roofline, a split windshield, and a hint of a tailfin. The result was a car that looked fast even when standing still.
