The launch of the Octavia I marked the first time that ŠKODA ever had two models in production at the same time and the first model with more than 1 million produced vehicles.

Skoda
The origin of Skoda Auto goes back to 1895. Václav Laurin, a mechanic, and Václav Klement, book-seller, both shared a passion for bicycles.
