Batches of pre production versions followed, before manufacture began in 1939, adapted for military use. Adolf Hitler advised that the Volkswagen People's Car be streamlined to 'look like a beetle'. Post war civilian production was under British military control until 1949, when it reverted to German charge. During the late 1960s the Beetle became a world car.
