ŠKODA WEEKLY 14/2020
NUMBER
OF THE
WEEK
CLEAN AIR FOR OUR CARS
Allergy symptoms can have
an adverse impact on driving
safety. At 50 km/h, a sneeze
can mean driving blind
for around 30 metres.
The Climatronic Air Care
system in many ŠKODA
vehicles effectively remedies
this situation. Using various
sensors, it monitors the air
quality in the vehicle, and, if
necessary, responds
automatically.
LESSER
KNOWN
MODELS
OF ŠKODA
ŠKODA Storyboard is
preparing series about lesser
known models from ŠKODA's
125-year-long history. First
was the Laurin & Klement
Type LW three-wheeler
(picture) from 1905, with only
three models still existing, plus
a separate engine. Second part
was dedicated to mail and
delivery vans L&K Type E
"Černá hora-Montenegro".
These specials ideally suited
the specifics of the
mountainous Principality of
Montenegro and proved to be
highly reliable and functional,
building our brand great
rapport in this region.
The cabin air filters in current
ŠKODA vehicles are also
crucial for clean air in the
interior. They perform three
functions simultaneously: they
catch fine dust particles,
prevent allergens from
entering the interior, and can
absorb unpleasant odours.
However, this only works
optimally if the cabin air filters
are changed regularly, ideally
in spring.

ŠKODA AUTO has temporarily
shut down production until 27. 4.
2020. Many employees are
therefore off their usual
workplace and it's not possible to
visit ŠKODA AUTO's
restaurants. To avoid wasting
food Aramark has given 250 kg
of food from the Kvasiny plant to
two local social-care organizations. More examples of our help
are on social networks.

OCTAVIA GETS NOTICED
IN PRODUCT DESIGN
Three’s a charm: following previous nods in 2006 and 2017, the
OCTAVIA has once again received the renowned Red Dot Award for
outstanding product design, marking its third such win.
Our bestseller’s all-new fourth generation impressed a jury of around
40 experts from across the globe with its emotive styling, sculpted
design elements and elegant, dynamic proportions. The design
contest’s 65th edition has thus netted ŠKODA its 14th Red Dot
Award for its models.
