Volkswagen Trailer Assist Behind The Scenes

This is a cool video of what appears to be a guy driving his car in reverse at high speed while towing a trailer. It shows the car passing cars on the highway, navigating tricky streets, and doing tight u-turns. All while towing a trailer.

In actuality the trailer is the tow vehicle. This is a prop for a Volkswagen commercial about their “trailer assist” feature. I am not surprised VW pulled off this level of trickery considering their diesel emissions trick they pulled off last year. Watch the video after the break showing how they pulled this trailer stunt off.
