Known officially as the Volkswagen Type 2 (the Beetle was the Type 1) or the Transporter, the bus was a favorite mode of transportation for hippies in the U.S. during the 1960s and became an icon of the American counterculture movement. Volkswagen started producing Sambas in 1951. Originally, Volkswagen vans were classified according to their number of windows. The Transporter had 23, and later 21, windows including 8 panoramic windows on the roof. To distinguish it from the normal 23 or 21-window Volkswagen van, the name Samba was coined.
