Volkswagen Plattenwagen

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A 1948 Plattenwagen at the Volkswagen AutoMuseum in Wolfsburg.

The Volkswagen Plattenwagen was never sold to the public and was only used by the Volkswagen factory in Wolfsburg as a parts runabout.

When Dutch VW importer Ben Pon visited the Wolfsburg factory in 1947 he spotted a Plattenwagen based on the VW Beetle which gave him the idea of a Commercial based VW, the future Transporter.
