Beetle Adventure Racing is a racing game released for the Nintendo 64 made by EA Games. Originally, EA had planned to create a racing game in the form of its popular Need for Speed series on the N64 before deciding on Beetle Adventure Racing. The game features 1970's dialoge and style music. This is a different kind of racing game as all of the vehicles are Volkswagen New Beetles, which were released the previous year. Paradigm Entertainment, which previously worked on a flight-simulator for the N64, was able to get heretofore unseen draw distances on the N64, and otherwise left Beetle Adventure Racing as one of the better looking games on the N64. Despite the use of real vehicles, the gameplay is much more in line with San Francisco Rush than it is with Gran Turismo, with an emphasis on shortcuts. The game was later released in Australia as HSV Adventure Racing, using Holden Special Vehicles cars in place of the Beetles.

Beetle Adventure Racing also supports up to four players. Two player races can be held in any of the tracks, provided they have been unlocked in the single player championship. Sadly, there is no two-player Championship mode. Two-to-Four players can take part in its "Beetle Battle" mode, in which players compete to collect six differently colored ladybugs, attempt to destroy the other competitors, and race for the exit once all the ladybugs are collected.
