The wings are a least-work bandaid solution. The don't address the issue of the tiny rear cargo area.

EDAG are a school in IIRC Switzerland. They produced this a few years back. There is precedent in the fiberglass van conversions for the aircooled Beetle, such as BGW.

At least the too-fast back on the old Beetle aided engine cooling.
