The Volkswagen logo originated with the company's founding in 1937 and has always centered on the interlocked letters "V" and "W". Early versions incorporated a gear-and-laurel wreath motif reflecting the company's origins and era, while post-war designs progressively simplified the mark.
In the late 20th century the emblem adopted a three-dimensional, chrome-effect look used for many years. In 2019 Volkswagen introduced a flat, two-dimensional iteration as part of a brand refresh to improve digital readability and reflect a more modern, simplified identity.
What color is the Volkswagen logo?
The primary color of the Volkswagen logo is #1E5BB8. This color is used across the brand's official logo, emblem, and wordmark assets.
