Chattanooga Plant Tour?

[Aonarch]

Hey guys I grew up in Chattanooga and I am currently planning a trip to visit the city. Being a VW enthusiast I would love to tour the new plant. Unfortunately I could not find any information online about tour dates, times, or even the possibility of a tour.

So my question is, Are tours offered at the new Chattanooga plant?

I'd like to know about this as well. I wonder about it every time that I see the Volkswagen Drive exit on my way to Alabama

After taking a tour through the plant for our training, our VW Rep told us that they do not plan to offer tours to the public.

Check this out guys. This is probably as much of the inside as we'll see.

That's very interesting. I was pretty impressed about how VWoA is recycling/using natural resources

We, modern society, need to pratice that a lot more, I think

Bummer. I'm going to be down that way later this year and was hoping to tour the plant.

I used to live in Hixson for a while, just a few miles from the plant. I plan to visit friends there and go on the plant tour with my older son. He should be able to get in as an employee of the VW enterprise in Switzerland. He works mainly on Audi electronics. However, as everybody else, he likes to see how everything comes together.

I bet the building and the robots will be the most interesting part of the tour, Definitely not the cars.... LMAO!!!!

I went to the BMW plant at Spartanburg SC . Class act 7.50$ admission charge . Worth every penny . Why would vw not want people to visit their plant ? It generates huge goodwill. Hopefully their policy will change

wondering if they changed their mind yet... I'd love to see all this - but will settle for the Ultimate BMW Experience while I wait...

Inquiries from Facebook Fans:

Are factory tours available?
• Yes, there are eight tours a week, Tuesday to Friday at both 9am and 1:30pm. You can email tours@vw.com to set up a time, but keep in mind that it’s usually necessary to book several weeks in advance.

Are there any plans for factory deliveries?
• Not at this time, unfortunately. Vehicles can only be picked up at dealerships.

Any other plans for other models to be built in Chattanooga?
• Not at the moment, but this is being considered as a future possibility. There are currently plans to increase capacity from 150,000 to 180,000 a year with the addition of a third team.
