Mark Zuckerberg, the young man who founded Facebook is one of the richest human beings alive on earth. His empire has spanned across the globe making him surpass Bill Gates effortlessly. His net worth of $20 billion makes it easy to spend millions on cars but he doesn't. He is only driving a $30,000 2014 Volkswagen GTI which is known to for its premium cabin materials, roomy seats, and spacious boot.
Many may be surprised by his choice of a car. He could've splurged on the hottest rides such as Maybachs or Aston Martins, but he chose a rather low key sedan but definitely does not disappoint at all. Volkswagen has evolved from just producing the Beatle to sedans worth noticing and of course, worth having.
According to Business Insider, he could've also chosen a Tesla Model S, A Bugatti Veyron, or even the A-Listers favorite, the Ferrari. He can afford all these rides, even being able to buy one every six months if he wants to. But then, this man is smart beyond his years.
No one knows, he may have one of these cars but not up to revealing it, but her drives a 2014 Volkswagen GTI to work. No more, no less. He is also seen constantly on TV appearances and in various events wearing his signature jeans and shirt ensemble which makes a statement that he is not so much into the glitz and glamor in anyway.
