This type of body - with this larger rear window and these rear lights - was launched in August 1957 for the 1958 model year. By then, VW called it VW Limousine - as can be seen on the 2nd link - and the lack of chrome and painted bumpers show it's a Standard trim car. http://www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/lit/58pricelist/1.jpg http://www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/lit/58pricelist/2.jpg
