Volkswagen Plattenwagen

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 Volkswagen importer Ben Pon visited the Wolfsburg factory in 1947, he spotted a Plattenwagen based on the Volkswagen Beetle. This gave him the idea for a Volkswagen commercial, the future Transporter.
