![]() ![]() The interior of the car is rather unique, featuring a vented unit at the centre and a glove compartment on the passenger side. The underside is rather generic like most cars, but features a detailed suspension setup likely intended for off-road configurations, with the front axle being a chrome beam with suspension shocks and springs, steering rack and trailing arms, and the rear axle having dedicated control arms and transmission shafts for each rear wheel. The lower area is basically composed of a chrome flat bumper and the twin exhaust tubes below. The fenders have black housings with twin tail lamps, with the upper ones being red lamps and the lower ones turn signals. The rear of the car is mostly predominated by the curved engine compartment, which features a vented section above the number plate section and a single handle on the bottom. The doors are somewhat similar to the ones on the Injection but make use of traditional chrome handles and square-shaped rear-view mirrors. The cabin area follows the same shape and window layout as the Injection, but various differences can be found between these, being the straighter windows, no inner pillars on the door windows, and the larger split rear window with a flatter bottom. The sides of the car feature wide fender arches, though still smaller compared to the Injection's bulky off-road fenders, while chrome trims are seen running across the vehicle. Said bonnet opens to reveal a spare wheel and a small luggage compartment, along with essential components above. ![]() The bonnet area features a curved compartment with details similar to the front of the Injection, albeit more in-line with the rest of the compartment (Weevil, like the Beetle, has its trunk in the front where the engine customarily resides, with the engine instead at the back). The front end features a small chrome flat bumper with a number plate at the centre, while a set of circular lamps with chrome trim can be seen on the outer sides, with the outer ones being the headlamps and the inner ones amber signals. The Weevil also omits the Beetle's distinctive front bonnet handle. The stock Weevil omits the Beetle's characteristic running boards (which can be restored at mod shops) and features simplified bumper designs not seen on any production model Beetle. Its headlights and rear split window appear to be inspired by the DKW F9/ IFA F9, the turn signals placement and shape are inspired by the Subaru 360, while the tail lights might have been inspired by the Tatra 87. The vehicle's front fascia is based on pre-1954 Beetle models, while the vented bonnet and interior are based on 1950s–60s models. The Weevil is heavily based on the Volkswagen Type 1 "Beetle", combining elements from across the Beetle's production timeline with minimal deviations from the original design, and sharing influences from the original Injection. It was later available for purchase on January 7, 2021, during the Weevil Week, with a discounted price for those who completed the aforementioned requirements. It originally wore the name of Driven To The Max, but has also gone under the name "Mongoose Dragster", "Snake Dragster" in the past before being called just simply "Dragster".While the Weevil was originally released in the aforementioned update, it was not available until December 22, 2020, during the Holiday Bonuses 2020 event, where players could obtain it as a reward for completing certain requirements. The Dragster is an original Hot Wheels casting designed by Larry Wood that debuted in the 1994 Hot Wheels mainline. ![]()
