Task and Goals

The VDAT e.V. is the professional association of the independent automotive aftermarket tuning and accessories industry. At the political level, the association advocates for the interests of its members in order to ensure that modifications to vehicles in circulation may also be allowed in the future. The VDAT is organized in the European Tuning Organization www.e-t-o.org at the European level.

The VDAT and its members stand for safe and reliable tuning within the framework of the regulations in force in Germany. We orient ourselves on the technically sensible and not on the theoretically technically feasible, in order to offer the customers long-lasting fun with the individualization of their vehicles.

The members of the VDAT are made up of companies of the tuning and accessories industry as well as sponsoring members, e.g. from the supplier industry and the media.

Since the foundation of the VDAT in 1987, the VDAT quality label has become the brand of the association and its members. The use of the quality label is reserved to members only!
