4 years after the whole Germane industry and country was bombed back to zero they were making cars in huge numbers, that's pretty amazing. From a time when politicians was doing what was good for their country, not like today when the country must do what is good for politicians.

Politicians had nothing to do with it, or at least they were responsible for the devastation of WW2. The reason VW was able to restart production so quickly is that the British military who were in charge of this sector needed something to put the local population back to work. It was the British military who got the factory working and then placed and order for the first 20,000 cars.

Ultra-dramatic music and a snarling voice in the comments. A couple years earlier that same style was used to motivate the people for the war effort. It took many more years to pass until people became far more relaxed and joyful. Please, do not get me wrong. The emotional side of that film is a document, too.

Great film, thank you for uploading. Have very fond memories of my '64 Beetle that took me everywhere I wanted to go, including the beach! What impressed me was the huge pressing machines used to press out the body parts, can you imagine the work that the toolmakers put in to make the dies, both the male and female sides, no cnc machining here, and then the setting up they did on the presses to make sure that the pressing that came out was to specification. Full credit to them.

The last vw beetle type1 was manufactured in Puebla Mexico

Thank you for publishing this film, it is a document of its time and the production of the Volkswagen with lots of interesting scenes shot in the factory. But the lady is definitely not Hilde Hildebrand- she was born in 1897 and that woman on the screen is not 52 years old. Have a look in movies with Hilde Hildebrand, for example Große Freiheit Nr. 7 from 1944, and listen to her voice, differing widely from the voice of the actress in the Volkswagen movie. Another very famous man appearing in a scene is Werner Finck (up from 23:05).

..clever bit where the man carries fuel can and can't get a ride to next station, then does get one, but hides behind the VW seat to avoid being seen by those in the car ahead, stopped at that station.. He explains to the driver and his passenger in VW, what his game is; hitching rides with all his clothes hidden (here 53:43) inside a dummy fuel can.. And they all laugh and sing a song together as they pass the fuel station and other driver, on by.. (No language captions, so I had to try and guess which words meant what. I'm way out of practice here.) I've forgotten what little German learned in high school, @ 17 y/o and hadn't heard any Deutsch since then, in my 67+ years!🙂

Isn't that a 'new' factory at VW Wolfburg? Where a British Army captain, who pulled a dirty, singed Beetle out of the 'old' factory and thought: "we must find something for these people to do - restart the economy". "I know - we'll rebuild the bombed-out factory"! Meanwhile, back in Longbridge in austere, half-starved Great Britain, with rationing and food stamps still the order of the day, the Austin workers drifted back from fighting in all four corners of the world (those that who managed to survive though not necessarily with their mental health intact) to a decrepit, dirty, old Victorian ex-paint factory still wearing the scars of the Luftwaffe's visitations. Who were best able to produce 'Wagens' that 'Volk' actually wanted to buy built with modern machine-tools in a clean, new facility? Longbridge finally closed - unable to compete - in 2005. It is now covered in shops and houses. Who were the ultimate victors in the war against fascism??

Folke, at least American car factories weren’t using human hair for cushioning in the seat pads, and using slave labor to assemble them. I’m sure at the time it was merely thought of as a rational business decision: human hair salvaged from the camps was cheaper and more plentiful than horsehair, and slave labor was cheaper than paying people. In reality, the men shown working in this footage likely *weren’t* working in the factory during the war, they were out creating it. Look, I love my ‘68 Beetle, but we don’t need to pretend these cars weren’t born into existence by the most murderous government humanity has ever produced. The Beetle has dark origins, but went on to be the most successful, beloved, and long lived car model ever produced. That triumph is part of its story. Knock it off with your “afterbirth” nonsense-attitudes like that are what caused WW2 in the first place.
