Volkswagen’s assembly plant in Chattanooga will feature a day-long social media event today called #VWDayInTheLife.

The factory used to offer three tours daily to highlight its advanced manufacturing systems and LEED Platinum certified plant. But due to prototype vehicles in the plant (first the facelifted Passat-just released – now the midsize SUV which is under development) the plant has been closed to outside visitors for most of 2015 and will be for much of 2016.

Go to VW’s social media sites throughout the day as it uploads pictures from all around the plant for a glimpse into what it takes to produce the new Passat and the people who do it.
