The nod to 1960s sun-kissed nostalgia was unveiled at the Geneva International Motor Show.

Volkswagen brought back the spirit of the Californian sun and The Beach Boys at the Geneva Motor Show this week, when it paraded its 21st century version of the dune buggy.

On roads, the buggy can sprint from zero to 62 miles per hour in 7.2 seconds but maximum speed is electronically limited to 99 mph. Based on Europe's new performance benchmark, the I.D. Buggy will give a 155-mile range on one charge. The electric drive platform the car is built on is called the MEB and VW has forecast it will sell 10 million cars using this technology.
