New VW car commercial

One of the more creative car commercials I've seen In a while. To the
soundtrack of Simon and Garfunkels, Sounds of Silence. Multiple clips
that segue into the introduction of VW's new electric car. Alot more
interesting than the typical genre.

Lame ass tear jerk we are sorry for getting caught. VW sucks balls for ruining diesel as an alternative. BTW I bought a diesel Passat after all of it for pennies on the dollar but now we all will have to drive Teslas. My electric company can barely supply electricity to our home, how much will it go up when all vehicles are electric? solar blah blah its a corporate thing.

Dieselgate - corporate greed at its best.

From episode 1 : NOX of "Dirty Money" now on Netflix.

The VW-Porsche-Audi-Lambrogini- and more conglomerate were for sure guilty. But many other companies were doing it too, and pretty much skated on charges.
