The Best Car Production Process

Only the best is good enough for our customers! The principle that company founders Laurin and Klement followed, remains in effect at ŠKODA even to this day.
This is why we pay maximum attention of all car production process at our company. From car development to manufacturing, sales and after-sales customer service. The reason is simple: Your satisfaction is our number one priority.

Cutting Edge Automobile Technology and People

To produce the ŠKODA Fabia, Octavia, Roomster and Superb models, we built new manufacturing facilities and equipped them with the most advanced technology available to automobile manufacturers worldwide. Our employees are also leading specialists in their fields. As a result, the ŠKODA cars rolling off the production lines at our factories in the Czech Republic and abroad are of top quality and have excellent technical specifications.

Stamping Car Body Parts

We produce ŠKODA car body parts at three stamping factories that house 14 stamping lines as well as other production lines. Using the most advanced equipment, we can produce car body parts of this highest quality for over 1,300 Fabia bodies or 860 second-generation Octavia bodies each and every day. In order to produce high-quality car body parts, we can create even the most intricate casting tools. The tool production process facility is equipped with machining centres that can fulfil complex orders without blinking an eye – such as producing stamping dyes for car side plates. This machined part could be as large as 4500 x 2500 mm weigh nearly 20 tonnes!

Welding

Top quality and welding up all parts of the car's body perfectly during assembly – this is the principal condition for attaining flawless final assembly and guaranteeing the car's final appearance will be impeccable. At the modern facilities in Mladá Boleslav and in Kvasiny in northern Bohemia, qualified personnel work side-by-side with hundreds of robots to weld subassemblies as well as entire car bodies with absolute precision. We manufacture car bodies for the new Octavia, Octavia Tour as well as all Fabia model versions in Mladá Boleslav. The welded bodies for the Roomster and Superb luxury limousines are produced at a factory branch in Kvasiny.

Car Painting

It is impossible to imagine a new car without a perfect coloured coat. This is why we have built modern facilities in Mladá Boleslav and Kvasiny that maximally utilise automated and robotised manufacturing processes to paint ŠKODA cars. We also use the best quality materials that have a low environmental impact, including water-soluble topcoats. Due to this we can proudly announce that we provide a 10-year guarantee against rust for the Fabia, Octavia Tour and Superb, and even a 12-year guarantee for the new Octavia. There is a three-year guarantee against paint flaws.

Metal Casting

ŠKODA Auto has a long history of producing metal cast moulds and forgings for engines and gearboxes. For example, as early as 1962 we became the first in Europe to use a high-pressure pouring production process to intricate and complex aluminium cylinder blocks. Metal casting moulds from the aluminium foundry, grey cast iron and forgings from the forging facility in Mladá Boleslav are used not just in other car manufacturing factories that are part of the VW Group, but also at a number of local and international customers' sites. We are continuously modernizing the foundries and equipping them with the latest technology and technical equipment.

Engines and gearboxes production

ŠKODA Auto's facility to produce engines, axles and gearboxes is one of the most advanced production bases within the entire VW Group. Production was launched here in 2001. We produce modern three-cylinder 1.2 HTP motors for ŠKODA, VW and Seat brand cars. Besides additional petrol and diesel motors, we also assemble MQ 200 modern concept gearboxes for the VW Group and ŠKODA Auto. These gearboxes are notable for their ability to offer a comfortable and quiet ride. In addition, we assemble front and rear axles for the Fabia, Roomster and Octavia as well as rear axles for the Superb and Octavia Tour at the facility.

Final assembly

New ŠKODA Fabias and Octavias roll off the production line in Mladá Boleslav. The Roomster and the brand's largest model, the Superb, are manufactured at the newly reconstructed and expanded factory branch in Kvasiny. Our subsidiary factory in Vrchlabí assembles the steadily popular Octavia Tour as well as some individual modifications and accessories (luxury L&K, Scout model, sports RS, 4x4 etc.). We also assemble ŠKODA cars at additional international manufacturing and assembly plants (link to Skoda plants). We never shortchange the most important specification – and that is quality. This is why each and every car we produce is subjected to a thorough exit check-up that tests all the systems and controls the quality of assembly work before being dispatched. The cars also must pass a test drive on a special track featuring a number of various road surfaces!

Customer Satisfaction

We pay particular attention to the customer satisfaction level of our importers (retailers) devote to customers. Not just high-quality cars, but also you, our customers, deserve only the best. Visit your ŠKODA retailer and find out for yourself just how much your satisfaction with our products matters to us.

The history of the Cars

Karl Benz was designed a car, which had 3 wheels, motorized by a gasolinedriven engine in 1885. He was granted a copyright in 1886 for that vehicle. Obviously, he wasn’t the only one trying to manufacture cars. Some others succeeded in manufacturing mechanical vehicles, as the first motorbike by Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach in 1885. Benz is recognized with the invention of the modern car.


Types of cars
While select a car, it is imperative to choose one that fulfill your requirements. The mainly universal types of cars are: 4-doors sedans, 2-door coupes, station wagons, SUV’s, convertibles or sports cars.

Four Door Sedans
Sedans are excellent option for the majority of coupe punter.  The enclosed coffer offers safety, whereas the back doors allow effortless entry for back seat traveler.  Luxuries vehicles are four-door sedans extra comfy than other body styles. The sub-compact sedans available in the US are approximating the Hyundai Accent and Chevrolet Metro.  Somewhat larger are compact models approximating the Honda Civic, Ford Crown Victoria, Buick LeSabre and Ford Focus.  Mid-size sedans consist of the Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, Ford Taurus, and Chevrolet Lumina.
Two Door Coupes
Generally single adults or childless couples are chosen Coupes. Some of them have a rear door instead of a coffer, to consent to huge objects to be carried for short distance.  The back seats are difficult to way in, while the front doors ought to be utilized.


Station Wagons
Dynamic families yearn for minivans, sport utility vehicles, or station wagons.  All over the world, station wagons remain the initial choice for the families.  In North America, first minivans and at this time SUVs have hold of most of the customer base station wagons. Large SUV’s as large as people need to be, but seats are less than a minivan; they acquire horrific gas mileage, and their handling are rough. SUV’s buyers think again and take an intent look at the station wagon.  Station wagons proffer additional stability, better gas mileage, and SUV sized interiors. Subaru, Volkswagen, Audi, Volvo, and Mercedes-Benz offer all-wheel drive.





Convertibles
Sports cars are mainly convertibles have two seats, high staging engines and finer handling.  However, GM, Ford, Mitsubishi, and Chrysler offer some ordinary convertibles, i.e. regular coupes with convertible tops as the Chevrolet Cavalier, Pontiac Sunfire, Ford Mustang, Dodge Avenger, Chrysler Conquest and Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder.  Luxury convertibles are obtainable from BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Saab, and Volvo.  Convertibles are a luxurious selection, but their negative aspects are apparent.





Sports Cars
Sports cars are designed for equally on a daily basis traveler and week-endracing diversion. Some 1950′s maker put stable tops on their sport cars, resultant in the sports coupe.  The word sports-sedan is a modern word to illustrate a four-door vehicle that handles like a roadster.  In recent times we’ve noticed luxury cars marketed as luxury sports sedans.  The affordable sports cars BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, and Porsche all introduced roadsters. Sports cars are cool and enjoyable to drive, while unfeasible for daily haulage.
