Use Volkswagen’s standalone VW roundel as the primary brand mark. Keep the supplied artwork intact; do not redraw, distort, or add effects to it.

## Volkswagen’s voice

Write with warmth, optimism, and a direct, conversational confidence. Address people naturally, connect features to real life, and use light wordplay when it feels effortless. Pair expressive headlines with clear, useful explanations; make the benefit tangible without losing the human point of view.

Volkswagen’s copy includes phrases such as “A whole new world opens up in the 2027 VW Taos Compact SUV,” “Be on your way in the compact SUV made for drives like yours,” and “After all, it takes drive to make change.”

Use specifics to support the promise. In vehicle and ownership copy, state features and figures plainly, and preserve qualifiers or limitations that affect what a feature, offer, or claim means.

- “A whole new world opens up in the 2027 VW Taos Compact SUV”
- “Be on your way in the compact SUV made for drives like yours”
- “After all, it takes drive to make change”

## Dos and don’ts

### Do

- Connect product features to people’s everyday needs, plans, and experiences.
- Keep the VW roundel artwork intact and easy to recognize.
- Pair lifestyle imagery with clear views of the vehicle and its relevant features.
- Use an optimistic, conversational tone and specific, useful language.

### Don’t

- Don’t distort, redraw, or decorate the VW roundel.
- Don’t let clever headlines replace a clear explanation of the actual benefit.
- Don’t present vehicle specifications or features without the relevant qualifications and limitations.
- Don’t make Volkswagen’s voice impersonal or overly technical when a clear human benefit can be expressed.

## Volkswagen imagery

25 images from vw.com, in one file of the Brand Skill. Each file starts with its guidance, then shows the images it refers to.

### Imagery

25 images

Show Volkswagen vehicles as part of people’s lives: on scenic drives, in everyday settings, and among family, friends, or community. Favor natural-feeling moments and aspirational but attainable settings. Balance broader scenes with considered views of exterior design, interiors, and useful features.

These images span homepage and showroom scenes, vehicle storytelling, and driver-assistance content. Keep product and feature imagery in its relevant context.

Use community, ownership, heritage, and lifestyle scenes to broaden vehicle stories while keeping the Volkswagen experience at the center.

Use the vehicle lineup, EV collage, and heritage imagery in the contexts they represent.

## Download Volkswagen’s Brand Skill

It has the guidance, 25 images and the logos. The font files belong to Volkswagen AG, so they’re left out.
