This classic advertisement from 1964 won gold in Cannes that year. We don’t want to spoil the commercial by telling what will happen but this commercial could just as easily have aired today.

The new Volkswagen cars are equipped with adaptive lights, they make it easier to see danger coming. In this print campaign they’ve illustrated this in an obvious way.

You know that game, every time a yellow car passes by, you punch your friend on the shoulder? We here at CreativeCriminals love that game!
Volkswagen made this amusing TV commercial for the Super Bowl this year. In the end, you see Stevie Wonder hitting Tracy Morgan. Curious how he does that?

Meet this man, a 35 year old husband, with two children and practically having all that he wants. Yet suddenly his good life takes a turn; His wife starts to buy new, sexy clothes, and goes out more often then she did before.. He starts to suspect something and when investigating the whole thing, he get distracted by something…

It looks like a skinny week in advertising, there are not a lot of good campaigns released this week. Or not at least good enough to share with you. That’s why we’ve been digging some archives and found this older spot for Volkswagen.

People who drive a Porsche have a small penis and people who drive a Volkswagen have been blessed with a bigger one. Or that’s at least what these images are implying. We are not sure if this is an official campaign, or just a stunt done by a Volkswagen enthusiast. But it’s remarkably funny and definitely worth sharing.

This ambient for Volkswagen is pure fun. Volkswagen launched a new initiative called Fast Lane. Fast Lane is dedicated to everyone who loves to go beyond the regular, who is curious for new stuff and who simply enjoys to speed it all up a little. And that’s precisely what Volkswagen did in this campaign.
At the Alexanderplatz in Berlin they’ve installed a slide to enter the subway, in a supermarket they attached skateboards to shopping carts to make them go faster and they’ve turned an elevator into the launch platform of a space ship. This is just fabulous!
You can find the two other examples after the jump.

Volkswagen keeps introducing innovations in their cars. One of their new assistance systems is called ‘Lane assist’. It alerts a driver when he is deviating from the road, a problem usualy caused by tiredness. The clown in this ad is just perfect, it looks like it’s been done by Stephen King himself.

This is a nice ad for the new Volkwsagen Bluemotion. I’m not sure what the theme has to do with a car, but I still like it. This spot is really good directed, and the girl fits perfectly. Perfect casting!

Now the Volkswagen Park assist is also available for the new Passat.
Most of the time women have difficulties with parallel parking, especially older women. In this video the granny parks the car so fast, it looks like a young guy did it. But actually she used the automatic parking steering assistance.

The Volkswagen Park assist system is a genious invention, the car will park completely by itself! Click continue to see how it works.
