well, they designed the Beetle for the Nazis so, it kind of makes sense.

It was a Nazi mobile designed for the communist peoples. In fact people were told to invest money into the manufacturing of the car well before it was created. The word Volkswagon means something like THE PEOPLES CAR or something. Still surprises me that people think so highly of them with that past.


Also somehow the invention of that brand of car is to also correlate with the Autobahn. Another Hitler idea. The thinning of the population by letting them drive recklessly at high rates of speed. .
