The history of the legendary brand of Volkswagen is not as long-lasting, as many famous automobile companies, but is full of events. After all, at its core is an explosive mixture of politics, intrigue, engineering talent and human destinies. It all started in the 30s in Germany. At the root of Volkswagen was an outstanding automotive engineer Ferdinand Porsche, then head of his own CB in Stuttgart and is engaged in designing small cars with 4-cylinder boxer engine.
In 1934, his office received an order immense political significance: to develop and mass-produce cheap small cars. The fact that the regime, then the law in Germany, was very interested in the mass support of the population.
And already in 1935 this car was designed. He got the name Volkswagen («Volkswagen"), which literally translated from German means "people's car". After two years of testing in 1937 it launched a series of VW30, but by 1938 the car has found a familiar appearance of many generations.
Because of the resemblance to a beetle journalists gave Volkswagen VW30 nickname Beetle. Later it became the name of the machine.
The car turned out good: simple, reliable enough to use and cheap - so accessible to the masses of the population. But the main thing - the car originally was built a huge modernization potential. In other words, the car was fired at a time of potential reserves in the years of forty or fifty.
May 26, 1938 in the small German town of Fallersleben was founded factory (where he subsequently produced cars of Volkswagen), which, actually, is the production and had to adjust. Perhaps someone thought the city is not too harmonious, does not meet the scope of such a project, as later it was renamed Wolfsburg.
Is intended for the plant model of the car, which was called Volkswagen 38, air-cooled engine had a capacity of just 985 cm3. Also, the car had another name - KdF, an abbreviation of the Kraft durch Freude - «Strength through Joy." To raise funds for the construction of the automobile plant was declared a subscription with a deposit for future machines, issued bonds. So Volkswagen becomes the Germans twice folk: it is meant for the people, and is based on the people's money.
However, Volkswagen car owners to be happy just happened - in 1939, starting World War II. The production of passenger cars of this brand - Volkswagen - has been suspended. During the war the Volkswagen plant was reoriented to the production of military equipment. Such as all-terrain vehicle passenger Kubelwagen (type 82).
After the war, the company came under the control of the British, whose occupation zone was Wolfsburg. In the autumn of 1945 the British authorities handed over the plant to the order of 20 thousand cars. But nearly a decade later began mass production of the car in its original version. In 1947, Volkswagen was offered for export fair in Hanover, and attracted a lot of attention. The plant received its first foreign order from the Netherlands for a thousand cars, and in 1948 began to receive orders from Switzerland, Belgium, Sweden and other countries.
