No KdF cars were ever delivered, instead the money was embezzeled for the war effort. Also Porsche and Hitler were neither the first nor the only ones that had the idea for an affordable car. Infact the KdF car is pretty similiar to a Tatra design that never went into production due to missing demand after the Great Depression and the occupation of Czecho-Slovakia.
