Day 11 : 30 DAYS 30 BRANDS Challenge Here's an intriguing fact about BMW during World War 1! 🚗💡 #30Days30Brands #BMW #FunFact #DidYouKnow #BrandTrivia #Automotive #HistoryFacts #WorldWar1 #Innovation #GermanEngineering #LuxuryCars #AutoIndustry

An all-electric star is born! ⚡ This week we started production of the hotly anticipated Škoda #Elroq. 🌟 This compact SUV will make #emobility even more accessible as the most affordable BEV in #Europe in its segment, taking into account its battery size and extensive standard equipment. It also achieves price parity against its ICE counterpart in many markets. I’m excited to bring this new model to the road following the positive response from media and customers to the World Premiere in Prague last October. Between then and the end of the year, we received more than 20,000 orders – remarkable! 🚀 The Elroq is our first production model to fully adopt Škoda Auto’s new Modern Solid design language. The design is eye-catching and also contributes to excellent aerodynamics that enable an e-range of more than 580 km, while reduced charging times further improve the customer experience. 💪 This attractive package is the latest expression of our strategy of giving customers the freedom of choice in their powertrains – with a growing range of BEVs as well as highly efficient combustion models and mild and plug-in hybrids. As an industry geek, I’m also proud that we can produce this new model on the same flexible production line as our EV and ICE top-sellers: the all-electric #Enyaq and Enyaq Coupé series and the #Octavia ICE and mild hybrid models. 🚙 Our main plant in our Czech hometown of Mladá Boleslav is the only Volkswagen Group facility in Europe set up to build combustion and electric models on the same line – giving us extra flexibility to respond to what our customers want. 🏭 The fact that we also produce battery assemblies nearby for our #BEV cars and others from the Volkswagen Group creates additional synergies that benefit our customers and our business model. How do you like the look of our newest family member?

How about a little "giddy up" from your "grocery-getter"!! GEELY's Polestar 3 has what it takes. Great looks and EXCEPTIONAL PERFORMANCE. The Polestar 3 is "based on sibling Volvo Cars second-generation scalable product architecture, or SPA2, which underpins the Volvo EX90 electric crossover and the planned Volvo ES90 sedan." Polestar's struggles have been well-documented BUT we are pulling for the start-up. The product looks amazing (on the street as well :), and with some focused attention to it's distribution network (North America, specifically), we remain positive about its survival. PLEASE NOTE: We are currently soliciting for OEM, DEALER GROUP, SUPPLIER, SaaS contracts/other projects.

Hello Bochum, hello CAR Center Automotive Research! ☝ It was an honour to join CAR Director Prof. Dr. Helena Wisbert and speak at their annual New Mobility World & Symposium. What a great setting to focus on the transformation of the entire automotive sector – and on how Škoda Auto is steering our course as a thriving brand. 💚 The ongoing transformation of our industry is currently again at the centre of public debate and also in the spotlight of the conference. “Electromobility – Royal Road or Dead End?” was the deliberately provocative title I chose for my keynote. Spoiler alert: Of course the long-term future is electric – simply because that powertrain uses energy most efficiently. Fighting climate change remains a top priority. My point was not to advocate for any change to European deadlines but to put the focus on the #customers. They are the ones who must buy into #emobility in order for legislative deadlines to be achieved. As a manufacturer, we are doing our part, including by launching six new fully electric models in the next several years. This includes introducing the Škoda #Elroq later this year in the popular compact SUV segment. The city SUV crossover Škoda Epiq for around 25,000 euros will follow soon after. Society and governments also need to continue doing their parts to make e-mobility more attractive, including by expanding #charging infrastructure. ⚡ The customer is our priority in this era of transition, which is why we intentionally offer a choice of powertrains: highly efficient ICE models, mild and plug-in hybrids, and a growing range of BEVs. This is core to our strategy of providing the best mobility solutions based on customer preferences. 🚘 I was grateful to hear many industry colleagues at the CAR conference also talk about customer-centricity. What else do you think is key to making the successful #transition to e-mobility?
