Finding the Volkswagen Sausage
One of the most unique bestsellers in the Volkswagen brand
isn’t an automobile or related part at all; it’s a sausage. Branded as a “VW
original part” (specifically number 199 398 500 A), VW currywurst has been
produced since 1973. Since that time, it’s won prizes at German food fairs and
received gold awards from the German Agricultural Society.

It’s also given away to Volkswagen customers in that continent when they purchase a new VW.
