A dune buggy is a lightweight vehicle designed for off-road driving, particularly on sandy terrains like beaches and dunes. It typically features large tires, a powerful engine, and an open frame, allowing for better maneuverability and stability on uneven surfaces. Dune buggies can be built from scratch or modified from existing vehicles, often using a Volkswagen Beetle chassis. These vehicles are popular for recreational activities, providing an exciting way to explore rugged landscapes. Dune buggies can accommodate one or more passengers and are often used in racing events or adventure tours, making them a favorite among outdoor enthusiasts.
