Volkswagen emerged from the rubble of World War II under the patronage of Nazi leader Adolf Hitler. Over time, Volkswagen transformed from “war scrap” into a global empire and one of the largest car companies in the world.
The word "Volks" in German means the people, and the word "wagen" means a car, so it was called "the people's car" The first two Volkswagen cars were sold in the United States and the American market was extremely impressed with them, and more than half of the country's passenger cars became them.
