Skoda Automobilova AS, a Czech car manufacturer. The headquarters is located in Mlada Boleslav. Part of the Volkswagen concern.

Skoda was founded in 1925 on the basis of the well-known Czech company Laurin & Klement. The appearance of this logo is associated with the name of Emil Skoda, who in 1866 became the chief engineer of the mechanical workshops in Pilsen, which belonged to Arnost Waldstein. Over time, Skoda products become famous in the world.

First, the first new Skoda 4R car appeared, and inIn the late thirties, immediately after the world industrial crisis, the creation of a fundamentally new car Skoda 420 began. Four-cylinder engine with a capacity of 20 liters. sec., a 3-speed gearbox, made in a block with a main gear, made it possible to reach a speed of 60 km / h, with a fuel consumption of 8 l / 100 km. The car was designed for four seats, had two doors, and a trunk that could be opened from the outside, which was a great rarity for cars of that time.

During the Second World War, Skoda workshops controlledwere produced by Nazi Germany, produced military equipment, gas-powered trucks and only a small number of cars.

Since 1945, when the communist government came to power in post-war Czechoslovakia, the Skoda Popular 1101 car was put on the conveyor, which was a restyling of a car created before the war. This car went down in history under the name Tudor, which came from the merger of the words Two door - "two doors". The car continued to be called that even when the even was released into production.re-door body modification.

But the really first new post-war car was the Skoda 420, released in 1953 and given the popular name Spartak. The car had a 40 hp 4-cylinder engine. with. The chassis design was traditional for Skoda - a backbone frame. In the late 50s, a new front suspension was made to the car - instead of a transverse spring, springs and telescopic shock absorbers were installed. The rear transverse spring remains. The modification was considered a new model and given its own name - Octavia.

The car turned out to be successful, ande was released until 1971. And since the beginning of the 70s. In the history of Skoda, a completely new era begins - the designers create a sports coupe 2 + 2 - Skoda 110R, which in turn served as the prototype of a sports car capable of becoming a worthy competitor on sports tracks. An engine from a serial car was installed in this body, but increased to 1289 cm3. volume. Later, its power was raised to 140 liters. with. at 8500 rpm. The car was assigned an index - Skoda 130RS. Skoda 130RS performed both on the rally and on the ring. The biggest success came to her on kofree races in 1981. Then Skoda won the title of European champion among factory teams, and even surpassed BMW.

In the 80s. Czech automakers created the Skoda Favorit, a car that claimed to be the leading car of the entire socialist community, capable of competing with Soviet Zhiguli. But in 1989, a velvet revolution took place in Czechoslovakia, and the automobile plant began, as they say, not the best years. Cars of Western European production came from abroad, and production disruptions began. For the decisionThe problems of the car plant were taken up by the government, which decided to sell the plant to a foreign investor. 24 firms applied for this role, among which were such as BMW, GM, Renault. However, the best conditions were offered by Volkswagen, which kept the production of the Favorit model, raising its quality.

The secret of Skoda's popularity lies in the harmonious combination of price and quality of this car. German designers managed to correct all the flaws and flaws of the Skoda Favorit, turning it in 1994 into an elegant Felicia, which, both in terms of its technical characteristics and design, is ratherresembles Western European counterparts than a car produced by a country previously belonging to the socialist camp.

The real success came with the release of a fundamentally new car for Skoda - the Octavia. Its first show took place in September 1996 at the Paris Motor Show. The appearance of the Skoda Octavia brings the car closer to its Western counterparts from the Volkswagen dynasty. It was on the Octavia that the new base platform of the concern, the Golf IV, was tested, as a result of which both the Golf and Octavia found their customers, and the Volkswagen concern by that time completely ownedskoda.

In March 1998, updated versions (facelifts) of the Skoda Felicia and Skoda Felicia Combi models and the Skoda Octavia Combi station wagon were presented.

This was confirmed by the appearance of the Fabia model at the end of 1999, which, from a stylistic point of view, became a completely new car, while retaining the signature features of Skoda. Now Fabia is rapidly conquering both the European and Russian markets, successfully competing with the models of the leading automobile companies of this class.

By 2000, Skoda became the only company that managed to increase its proeven in Germany. Particularly popular is the Fabia limousine model and its variation - the compact Fabia Combi.

In 2001, Skoda introduced the updated Skoda Superb.
