    How did a company that exploited its own labors and make thousands of military vehicles for the Germans become one of the largest auto manufacturers in the world?
    In modern day Volkswagen has become a major powerhouse, having Bentley, Lamborghini, Bugatti and Porsche under their name, but back in World War II, they were among the darkest and most criminal war factories for Germany. From being accused to stealing the design of the Beetle, to having more than 80% of their workforce being forced labors, Volkswagen could get away with anything, having been founded by a dictator and his aides themselves, it’s easy to see why.
    But on the other hand, the company is also an incredible underdog success story. Once Germany was defeated and the company was left abandoned, it became an unwanted asset, not even Ford when it was offered to them for free. But even with the bleakest future, Volkswagen managed to reinvent themselves and make one of the strongest comebacks in corporate history.
    So sit back and relax, because today we’re covering the controversial story of Volkswagen, starting with an unlikely figure…

    I've read that the first time VW was caught cheating on U.S. emissions tests was really in 1973, at which time they were the only carmaker in the world to have made electronic fuel injection standard equipment on low-priced production cars. EFI made it easier for VW to make their primitive, air-cooled engines meet the new standards, but it also made it easier to cheat. They were not alone; Ford was caught shipping 1974 cars that polluted more than the ones the EPA has tested and almost had to shut down production; in the 1990s, Cadillac was caught selling cars that polluted twice as much with the AC running. Of course, with the advances in computerization, VW was able to cover up its recent bout of cheating for much longer, making it an even bigger scandal when it was finally uncovered. I'm sure it won't be the last such scandal.

      No, not true. Porches was PROUD of his German heritage. He found himself living in a region that became part of the newly bizarrely formed Czechoslovakia after WWI. His Czech citizenship was an automatic consequence of the territorial changes. Like it or not, it's a historical fact that he and AH got along very well.

    Actually its not quiet correct that the subscribers to the KDF wagon never saw their car or money again. In fact post war many of them took a class action against VW.
    VW pointed out that the post war VW Company was a different company to prewar.. however around 1960 they were forced to admit some defeat and the subscribers were given a concession toward a new Beetle. I think it was contribution of half the cost of the new car.

    I give you credit for at least mentioning the guy, because no other Volkswagen documentary has ever even mentioned Béla Barényi.
    However, you previously offered examples like Ganz & Tatra, speculating as to their potential influence on Porsche when "he" invented the Volkswagen. And you included Barényi with them, almost dismissively, saying, "When at just 18yrs old, Béla Barényi worked on a couple sketches for a chassis of a People's Car."..... Worked on a couple of sketches??!!?? That sounds more like a description of me doodling drawings of cars on a pad while I'm on hold during a phone call. Barényi had several pages of detailed Engineering Blueprints, for the body, interior, floor-pan chassis layout, suspension, engine & gearbox, with full specifications for an air-cooled, four cylinder boxer engine bolted to a gearbox at the rear, suspension & steering, everything....full production ready blueprints. These were the Blueprints for his concept of a "People's Car" that was his thesis for graduating engineering at university.
    Look, I'll assume you didn't research his history and were unaware of the rest, rather than deliberately omitting it......
    The DIFFERENCE between Béla Barényi, and Ganz, Tatra, or whoever else, is that others are only speculative subjects of influence on Porsche. Barényi ALONE is different as the ONLY legally, lawfully recognised, by Berlin's highest court, as the OFFICIAL conceptual & intellectual Father & Originator of the Volkswagen concept & design. The Volkswagen company since 1997 has been legally required to acknowledge this at their website, and in all their historical & promotional media. Although WHY Porsche is still commonly credited as such in lieu of it having been PROVEN in court that he stole it from Béla Barényi, is absurd.
    The VW was the original idea of Béla Barényi. This was proven in a case in the highest German court in Berlin when Barényi took Porsche to court, showed his original design Blueprints,.... they even called Barényi's uni professor by phone live in court to confirm he graduated age 18 with his thesis for the Volkswagen.... and proved Porsche stole the design when they met after his graduation from Uni.
    Barényi was just out of University, looking for a job. He had an interview at Porsche, where he tried to impress Dr. Porsche with the design that was his thesis for his Uni degree. A simple, rugged, reliable, easy & cheap to manufacture & maintain, "People's Car".
    Dr. Porsche spent a long time studying the young lad's work,.....
    and most likely having them photographed when "showing them to a colleague" or some similar shady crap, as he presented an identical copy in court as evidence they were his, with Barényi's credentials cut off, naturally. Hence the phone call to Barényi's Uni Professor in court to ascertain & PROVE that the disputed Blueprints WERE as HE saw them in Barényi's thesis, years BEFORE Porsche himself claimed to have drawn them.....
    Having stolen his design, Dr. Porsche dismissed him, declining his job application, stating they had no position for him at that time.
    Barényi subsequently applied at Mercedes, who immediately recognised his genius, and appointed him head of the pre-development department of Daimler-Benz....in his early to mid 20's! Dr Wilhelm Haspel who hired him, stated, "Mr Barényi, you are thinking 15 to 20 years ahead. In Sindelfingen you’ll be working in a world apart. Whatever you invent will go directly to the patent department.”
    When he died in 1997, the number of patents in his name, over 2500, was eclipsed only by Nicola Tesla, making him the second greatest designer/inventor in history.
    When he became aware of Porsche claiming credit for "inventing" the "People's Car", Barényi later took him to court, assisted by Mercedes Benz his employers. In the subsequent case Porsche was shown to have stolen the idea from a young hopeful seeking employment, who never imagined the "great" Dr. Porsche could do such a thing. Barényi won the case, and was legally credited & declared the conceptual, intellectual father & inventor of the Volkswagen Beetle. Google Volkswagen Beetle, or Béla Barényi, and the Wikipedia Page on both confirms it, as do countless other sites & documentaries. Visit the Mercedes Benz website, and you'll find an entire section devoted to his personal history, and his long history with the company, including how & why HE is the legally declared father of the Volkswagen design.
    More importantly, he was also known as the Father of Automobile Safety. This guy was responsible for designing & engineering just about every safety feature found in every car, made everywhere, to this day. Mercedes, after featuring his inventions in their cars first, released his designs to the industry free of charge, allowing all manufacturers to use them without royalty fees, deeming their life-saving implications and their universal industry adoption more important than profiting from the designs.
    The Collapsible Steering Column, Padded Steering Wheel, Burst Proof Vehicle Door Latches, The Self-Tensioning 3 Point Safety Belt, Front & Rear Energy Absorbing Crumple Zones, The Integrated Non-Deformable Passenger Cell, Integrated Rollover Protection Hoop, Side Intrusion Bars inside doors, Airbags, and on & on. At their website, Mercedes Benz states, “No one in the world has given more thought to car safety than this man.” He is the greatest, yet least known designer, engineer, inventor in the Automotive Industry. Although why Porsche is continually allowed to keep taking credit for designing the Volkswagen, despite Barényi proving in court he did not, and thus being legally declared & recognised as the originator of the concept & design, is unbelievable. Almost every video documentary or written article still credits Porsche as "inventing" the "People's Car", when he simply STOLE the idea. He was forced to admit it in court and apologise to Barényi, for godsake. When the Judge asked Barényi how much he believed he should receive in financial compensation from Porsche, Barényi replied "One Dollar"..... explaining that money & greed wasn't his motivation, it was the PRINCIPLE.
    His priority was to establish the truth, set the historical record straight, and make sure credit & recognition for achievements lies with those who RIGHTFULLY deserve them.
    That's a HELL of a lot different to announcing Béla Barényi's inclusion in your "documentary" as, "One of the earliest ABSTRACTIONS(??!!?!?) of what would later become the Beetle...." Later adding, "Oh, he drew a couple of sketches of a People's Car".
    "Abstractions" is an odd description for the lawful, legally recognised conceptual & intellectual father of the Volkswagen, whose blueprints Porsche used down to the last effing millimetre and even the specifications, to the last word, to build the Volkswagen for Hitler, winning a contract from the German Government that in today's money would be worth billions of dollars.
    Béla Barényi would've been entitled to, and could've received, a truck load of money in damages & compensation from Porsche when he successfully sued him for Intellectual Property Theft. He probably could've even claimed a percentage of future sales profits of every Beetle built in Royalties, and when you consider how LONG it was in production around the world, and how MANY were built, what that would've been worth. He could've been an instant billionaire.
    But, his wage from Mercedes Benz was sufficient to live comfortably.
    He asked for ONE DOLLAR.
    To make a point.
    In your favour, no one else bothers or wants to get it right, either. Or gives a toss.
    For some reason, for the vast majority, the MYTH that Porsche invented the Volkswagen is more important or palatable than the TRUTH.

    My favourite story about VW, was a Letter to Henry Ford, from his chief engineer, who had been sent to Germany after the War, to check on, and evaluate, 'The Peoples Car' .
    He wrote back to Ford, this is a ugly little thing, it's engine sounds like a clapped out stone crusher, and has no commercial future what so ever. This has to be STILL, the greatest missed commercial opportunity ever, and always WILL BE. I read this on a VW Poster, at a main Agents, while waiting for my Golf to be serviced , back in the 70's.

    Almost the same can be said about many automotive companies. Who supplied the Nazis during WW2? Who else cheated on emissions? Safety? On and on. VW doesn't rely on the US market. It is too small. It didn't cost them $30 billion either. The final figure was approximately $10b and it was in the form of re-investment into EV's, not a fine. During the diesel emissions, VW AG grew, not shrank, as consumers were used to unrealistic numbers being touted from all companies. Not that it is moral, but that it is more common than not. The fact that USA bought vehicles from Japan and Germany after the war, stuns me to no end, regardless of quality. You would think the great war machine, particularly, Ford would have built better cars and not gone to their enemies to import them.

      This region was inhabitated by people of German ethnicity. On the internet you will find that when (later) Third Reich annexed Sudetenland 2.9 million of 3.6 million inhabitants were of German ethnicity.
      So was Ferdinand Porsche one of them.
