The Dark History of Volkswagen

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 loved your video, congratulations!
Very great and inspirational story. Good lesson to take from Soichiro Honda's story is that if you have goal/vision and if you believe in it from your heart and even tho others might see it impossible and stupid, you go chase it. In that journey there is gonna be a lot of failures and set backs but if you learn from those failures and set backs, they're great step towards your goal. Like Michael Jordan said: "I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." Today's date is 2nd of May 2024 and I really hope that if someday I come back to this comment, I can be proud of myself and say I gave it my all.✌️

Chevrolet was way ahead of Ford at the time. I guess it was just a few hundred dollars more than a Ford
