Nippy, agile, with a cw value of 0.159 and with a top speed of 120 km/h, the “Cigar” impressed on its maiden voyage. The then Chairman of the Board of Management of Volkswagen AG Ferdinand Piëch drove the 1-litre car from the company headquarters in Wolfsburg to the Volkswagen AGM in Hamburg, and set a new consumption record in the process: just 0.99 litres at an average speed of 75 km/h. 8 9 Volkswagen Records.

R Pikes Peak → Depping is behind many successful Volkswagen race and rally cars → Romain Dumas: “Dieter was my second throttle foot” Wolfsburg (D) – He is the unsung hero and secret pacemaker behind the successful Pikes Peak project: Dieter Depping. The man from Hannover (Germany), who celebrates his 52nd birthday today on 7 August, has been a motorsport test and development driver for Volkswagen for 16 years. Without him, the twelve titles in the World Rally Championship (WRC), a further two titles in the FIA World Rallycross Championship (WRX), the three Dakar victories with the Race Touareg, and the many class wins at the Nürburgring 24 Hours would have been inconceivable. Or, as Romain Dumas puts it: “Dieter was my second throttle foot. Without him, the record on Pikes Peak would not have been possible”. The fact that this quote from Dumas came just moments after the ground-breaking Press contact 7:57.148 minutes, in which he had made motorsport and electromobility Volkswagen Motorsport GmbH history, speaks volumes of the key role that Dieter Depping has played in Andre Dietzel the Volkswagen Motorsport success story.

Price development in Germany 30 Volkswagen Beetle – the sound, the humor, the smell, the feel, the maneuverability, the image The Sound. The typical sound of a Beetle. 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.
