Welcome to the history of Volkswagen.
There are many companies with dark origin stories, but the story of Volkswagen may be the most horrifying. Today, the Volkswagen Group is one of the largest auto conglomerates in the world, holding ownership over brands like Audi, Bentley, Lamborghini, and Porsche. You might associate Volkswagen with some of the most beloved car designs, like the harmlesslooking Volkswagen Beetle, or the playful VW Bus. However, behind the innocent facade of these iconic cars lies one of the darkest histories in the world of business dating all the way back to Nazi Germany, and a personal request from Adolf Hitler. Deception… Slavery… and unimaginable cruelty. Be warned: The history of Volkswagen is not for the faint of heart. The history of Volkswagen is a story of dark secrets. Welcome to the disturbing true story of Volkswagen a mini business movie covering how Volkswagen began, how Volkswagen was rebuilt after the war, the bizarre origins of the VW bus, how Volkswagen briefly became the most valuable company in the world (during one of the biggest short squeezes in investing history) and the controversial VW emissions scandal (and why VW got such a huge fine for Diesel Gate). Hope you enjoy the controversial history of VW! :)
