History of VW

• Volkswagen came to be during WWII when Hitler
  ordered Ferdinand Porsche to construct a new car
  for the people and the history of the VW
  started. Hitler had a few specific guidelines
  for the car because he wanted it to be new like
  the era he wanted to create. He wanted the
  engine in the rear, a cheap price, cruising speed
  of 100 km/h, and to be very round. When an
  American reporter saw the creation he thought it
  looked like an insect so the beetle was born.
  The car sold well and Porsche funded the new cars
  and Volkswagen cars were born. The cars
  continued to sell and eventually were massed
  produced and exported.

How other German Cars came to be

• Many other car companies are in Germany but
  there are not as historically awing as VW s
  start. Many though just started with one man in
  a garage and worked his way up to the top by
  slowly making classic cars. It started with an
  inventor named Gottlieb Daimler who in 1885
  invented a gas engine that revolutionized the
  car. This gave car inventers like Rohr to do
  what they do best.
