This development underlines the success of the “Next Level – Škoda Strategy 2030”, focused on international expansion and accelerating electrification.

Most of the production was concentrated in the Czech Republic, but the brand's global footprint expanded noticeably:

• Kvasiny (Czech Republic): Here production rose to 301,500 units, being the place where the Octavia, Karoq and Kodiaq models come to life.
• Slovakia (Bratislava): The plant contributed 69,500 units, focusing on the new generations of the Superb and Volkswagen Passat.
• International expansion: Škoda reported record figures in India (with the new Kylaq model and doubling volumes for Slavia and Kushaq) and marked the official debut of production in Vietnam.

In addition to vehicles, Škoda produced over one million transmissions, 500,000 engines and 329,000 battery systems, half of which were for other brands within the Volkswagen Group.
