Škoda reveals first details of the Vision O concept car due to premiere in Munich in early September. The study will give an outlook on the brand’s future in the estate segment and is marking an evolution of the Modern Solid design language. At the same time, the Vision O is reflecting Škoda's 130-year tradition and underlines the company’s commitment to sustainable innovation.
At first sight, the estate concept features a sleek, distinctive silhouette. The design is predominantly shaped by the light contours, the aerodynamic body, the steeply raked windscreen and the gently sloping roof typical of Škoda estate models. The model designation "Vision O" is derived from the concept of circularity. This holistic approach to recycling and reusing components, minimises the environmental impact of vehicle development and production. Furthermore, the concept is also characterized by the combination of functionality and user experience.
The Vision O concept continues the manufacturer’s legacy of estate cars, encompassing models such as the historical L&K 110, known for its variable body options. The most successful is the Škoda Octavia estate, first introduced in 1960. Modern versions of the Škoda Octavia estate have already surpassed the milestone of more than 3 million units produced in four generations since 1998, making it also the best-selling estate model in Škoda history. First launched in 2008 with the second-modern-generation Superb, the Škoda Superb estate is also highly popular. Other well-liked Škoda estate models include the Škoda 1101 Tudor Station Wagon (STW) with a folding rear seat, as well as the Škoda 1200/1201/1202 model family.
