I knew that (excepting the year). It's easy enough to find, the other concept in 1955 was the EA48.
Quote:
Number 12 of 15 prototypes produced between 1953 and the end of 1956, the EA-47-12 was VW's first attempt at creating a modern successor to the Beetle. It was the first of many Beetle replacements designed by Italian automobile designer Ghia, which is probably why it looks like the quirky Karmann Ghia. The car was powered by a 1192cc four-cylinder boxer air-cooled engine with a power output of 30 horsepower. In addition, it boasted a transverse link front axle, torsion bar rear suspension, and fully synchronized gearbox—unique technology for the time. Top speed was 50 mph.

I think the driver of that single cab was about to lose some teeth, unless they're really strapped down.
