Volkswagen means “people’s car”. Before 1930’s there were so many efforts to create a simple car that everyone could afford but none meet the success. On that time, even though a simple car designed but it’s anyway ended up costing more for an average workers. It started developed more and more effort designed few series when it changed the name to Kdf Wagen which stands for “Kraft durch Freude” where it means “strength through joy”.
