The Volkswagen hipster ad will make you laugh or cringe depending on which side of the hipster spectrum you stand. This ad is for the Volkswagen Polo, and features four men, three of whom are competing for the 'coolest man at the moment' award.
The Volkswagen hipster ad features beard growing and shaving, outfit switching, and a lot of thick-rimmed glasses. This made me laugh, and it honestly made me want to check out the Volkswagen Polo. I want a car that mocks hipsters and 'follows no one'. Check out the commercial above to fall in love with the 2010 Volkswagen Polo.
