History of Volkswagen cars in the UK

From the iconic Beetle to the latest ID electric models, Volkswagen has evolved in the UK over the decades. The brand combines reliability, innovation, and a touch of style for every driver.

Origins and the Beetle

Now, Volkswagen is known for building solid, dependable cars with a premium edge, but it didn't start this way. VW's story started in 1937 with a bold mission: to build the "people's car." So they went ahead and made the legendary Beetle, but Beetle didn't launch till the end of WWII. During the Second World War, Volkswagen focused on military vehicles and gained experience in mass production. That experience led to the company launching Type 1 (the first commercially available Beetle).

Rise of Volkswagen

The brand gained momentum in the late 1940s and early 1950s. Once it started winning over UK drivers, it didn't look back. Volkswagen launched the Golf, a game-changer for the entire car industry, in the mid-1970s. It quickly became a go-to choice for drivers seeking practicality. Over the years, Volkswagen has introduced cars like the classic Golf GTI to the reliable Polo, each built to deliver on the brand's mission. From small hatchbacks to electric family movers, VW has something for everyone.

The electric era

More recently, its ID electric range, including the ID.3 and ID.4 shows that VW is not only dependable but also adaptable. These models combine the brand's legacy with the latest technology and are gaining ground quickly. Volkswagen has been the UK's best-selling new-car brand for many years in a row. The main reason behind this is that VW promises quality, choice, and trust. So, whether you're a first-time buyer or a loyal customer, the brand keeps proving it knows what British drivers want.
