Price increase in Wolfsburg: Families are enthusiastic about the new annual ticket key!

There is news in Wolfsburg that affects many visitors to the popular motor city. After 24 years of stable prices, the Autostadt has now decided to introduce a new annual pass called “Autostadt Key”. This comes with a significant price jump: instead of the previous 70 euros, families now have to spend up to 200 euros for the new card. This topic is causing a lot of conversation on social media, as news38.de reports.

The Autostadt Wolfsburg, which covers an impressive 28 hectares, attracts around two million visitors every year, making it a significant destination for vehicle and mobility enthusiasts. In order to continue to provide a high quality experience, management felt it was necessary to adjust prices. The new annual card, which has been available since June 11, 2025, promises an expanded range of services with attractive discounts and special benefits for its holders. In this respect, the Autostadt clearly stands out as a leisure destination, almost like a good bargain that shouldn't be missed.

Discontent and understanding among the population

However, the reactions to the price adjustment are predominantly negative. Families in particular find the increase excessive. “200 euros is simply too much,” can be read in numerous comments. The Autostadt itself emphasizes that it is in dialogue with visitors and wants to show understanding for their concerns. Those responsible emphasize that the changes are aimed at ensuring the high quality of the offer in the long term, as die-nachrichten.com explains.

Despite the price increase, existing annual pass subscriptions are valid until the end of the regular term. In addition, the offering around the Autostadt will continue to be supplemented by factory tours, special guided tours and breathtaking views from the towers, which are up to 48 meters high and house around 800 new cars. These tours are available daily and promise an interesting way to view the Autostadt from above.
