This is what will.i.am's Beetle project should have produced.

The car is a 1961 Volkswagen Beetle, named "Chico", customized by Butterfly Night of Indonesia.  They built several Chico's after this one, which may have been the same car.

(Butterfly Night may also be called Butterfly-butterflies Night, or Kupu-kupu Malam)

Translation is difficult.  Seems to have motorized doors, boot, bonnet.  Fully hydraulic suspension.

Engine has been expanded to 2000cc, and is turbocharged.

It was made in Kupu Kupu Malam, from what I found and the car is apparently a KKM Chico...
