Championing change

We engage with communities around the country to enhance the lives of those who shape their stories.

That’s why we take our inspiration from real people and real communities, celebrating individuality while asking — what can we do to enhance the lives of the people who help shape our story? After all, it takes drive to make change.

Putting Community First

We believe the most important thing about a Volkswagen is who’s in it. Whether it’s our loyal enthusiasts or a first-time VW owner, the heartbeat of our brand is our community on four wheels. That’s why we focus on the things that make our communities tick, like taking actions to build a more sustainable future, and partnerships that bring our drivers closer to the experiences they love.

U.S. Soccer Federation partnership

As the presenting partner of U.S. Soccer, Volkswagen's mission is to contribute to the future of the sport by helping people get more from the game.

Redwood Materials partnership

To make the batteries that power electric vehicles more sustainable, we need to work toward closing the loop at the end of their life. That’s why Volkswagen is collaborating with Redwood Materials to work toward creating a circular supply chain for EV batteries. With Redwood’s help, end-of-life batteries from VW’s electric vehicles will be able to be recycled and refined into critical components that can be used by battery manufacturers in new batteries.

Moving Your World Forward

To improve the paradigm of individual mobility for all, we think people are a good place to start. Our community initiatives are built to celebrate and serve every lifestyle, whether through our partnership with U.S. Soccer’s Extended National Teams, or by collaborating with artists and thought leaders from a diverse spectrum of backgrounds and communities. We’re sort of the “people’s people,” you know?

Cultural Connections

Volkswagen celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month by teaming up with Los Angeles-based artist Michelle Guerrero (Mr B Baby) to design a wrap for the all‑electric ID. Buzz. On display at activations throughout the month, Guerrero’s wrap, like the vibrant murals she’s known for, draws influence from her Puerto Rican and Mexican background. Guerrero’s design is synonymous with the character of ID. Buzz – optimistic, hopeful and inviting creativity and imagination. As the canvas to her brush, ID. Buzz becomes a moving tribute to creativity, connection, and the journey forward. Follow the wrapped ID. Buzz’s journey on our social channels: Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook.

Electrifying Connections

Volkswagen teamed up with Denver-based Chicano artist Tony Ortega to create a unique wrap design for the all‑electric ID.4 crossover SUV. By embracing his distinct Mexican-American identity, and reinterpreting Latin iconography in his impressionistic artwork, Ortega celebrates strength and diversity in community.
