  • Online Reservations of the SEAT Mii by Mango on Amazon.Fr with Delivery in 72 Hours a Complete Success
    #DeliveryToEnjoy Online reservations of the SEAT Mii by Mango on Amazon.fr with delivery in 72 hours a complete success / At the end of the campaign a total of 24 exclusive units of the SEAT Mii by Mango were sold / Customers could easily reserve their car on www.deliverytoenjoy.fr and receive it at their home 72 hours later Martorell/Paris, 08/12/2016. - The #DeliveryToEnjoy campaign launched by SEAT on Amazon.fr, where 15 units of the SEAT Mii by Mango were made available by reservation, exceeded both brands’ sales targets and expectations. The exclusive promotion, enabling customers and users to reserve a car directly via Amazon.fr and receive it at their home in just 72 hours, ended with 24 units sold. The enthusiasm generated by the campaign among Internet users was the reason for pushing back the deadline and offering more units for sale. The goal of the campaign was to provide customers with a shopping experience that is unique, easy, innovative and fast, via a fully online procedure and quick, digital delivery and payment solutions. The positive response to #DeliveryToEnjoy reflects consumers’ new demands and shopping habits as they increasingly begin an online search when they think about purchasing a car. The campaign, which was scheduled to end on 30 October, remained active for a month longer than expected, generating sales of 24 exclusive Mii cars instead of the initial 15, thanks to the success of the initiative. The campaign involved an easy method for customers to reserve and purchase an exclusive Mii by Mango Limited Edition car by making a €500 deposit on Amazon.fr.

  • The Porsche Type List
    The Porsche Type List When Professor Ferdinand Porsche started his business, the company established a numeric record of projects known as the Type List. As has been reported many times in the past, the list began with Type 7 so that Wanderer-Werke AG did not realize they were the company’s first customer. Of course, as a result, Porsche’s famous car, the 356 as defined on the Type List, was actually Porsche’s 350th design project. In reviewing the Porsche Type List enclosed on this website, you might notice several interesting aspects. First, although there is a strong chronological alignment of Type numbers, it is certainly not perfect. No official explanation exists as to why this occurs. It is possible that Type numbers were originally treated only as an informal configuration and data management tool and today’s rigorous examination of Porsche history is but an aberration of 20/20 hindsight. Secondly, you might also notice that there were variations on Type List numbers that were probably made rather spontaneously. For example, consider the Type 60 with its many “K” variations to designate different body styles. Also consider how the Type 356 was initially a tube frame chassis then changed to a sheet metal chassis with the annotation 356/2 but the /2 later reused to describe different body/engine offerings. Then there were the variants on the 356 annotated as 356 SL, 356A, 356B, and 356C designations and in parallel there were the 356 T1 through 356 T7 designations. Not to mention, of course, the trademark infringement threat that caused the Type 901 to be externally re-designated as the 911.

The Supervisory Board thanks Dr. Hohmann-Dennhardt for contributing her outstanding expertise and experience to achieving important milestones, and for supporting the Group in revising its internal guidelines and procedures. Dr. Hohmann-Dennhardt was appointed Member of the Board of Management of Volkswagen AG with responsibility for ‘Integrity and Legal Affairs' on January 1, 2016. During the past twelve months, she has also launched improvements in the Group’s compliance structures. Furthermore, a campaign to foster the culture of integrity within the Group was rolled out under her leadership. Volkswagen AG and Dr. Hohmann-Dennhardt are parting due to differences in their understanding of responsibilities and future operating structures within the function she leads. In light of the changes initiated by Dr. Hohmann-Dennhardt and the important role of the integrity and legal affairs function for the Company, the Supervisory Board decided to appoint a successor without delay. Ms. Hiltrud Werner will take over the post. She has been Head of Volkswagen Group Auditing since January 1, 2016. Hiltrud Werner is an economics graduate; before moving to the Volkswagen Group she held the post of Chief Audit Executive at ZF Friedrichshafen AG.

People of the Beetle Generation sit up and take notice when they hear it today. They are strangely touched, experience melancholy, as though remembering something long since lost. It is a sound as unmistakable as the Beetle's silhouette: it buzzes, it putters - all against a background of soothing fan noises – a feeling of euphoria which has underscored our mobility for decades and which was the accompaniment for our independence and for growing prosperity during those years. Beginning in the late 1940's and continuing into the early 1980's, the unmistakable noise of the Beetle left its mark on the sound backdrop of German streets. And in other places, as well, the air-cooled Beetle Boxer was the lead instrument in the noisy traffic concert. This is why Volkswagen advertising from the Doyle Dane Bernbach (DDB) agency at the end of the 1960's, advertising that is already legendary today, was titled „What the world loves about Germany"; it included a colorfully mixed collection of pictures: Heidelberg, a cuckoo clock, sauerkraut with dumplings, Goethe, a dachshund, the Lorelei – and a Beetle.
