The Autopian is marking its four-year anniversary and has named the Volkswagen Type 4 as its fourth-year anniversary car.
The Autopian, an online automotive community and website, said it publishes daily stories and noted a scratch-built WWII Jeep project led to registration as an automobile manufacturer in California.
The Volkswagen Type 4, introduced as the 411 in 1968, was Volkswagen’s first unibody production car and introduced MacPherson strut front suspension and a new aluminum flat-four air-cooled engine that later powered Microbuses, Vanagons and the VW‑Porsche 914.
The Autopian described the Type 4 as a fitting choice for its anniversary and noted the model was Volkswagen’s first four-door since the Kübelwagen, while the wagon version remained a two-door.
