ŠKODA AUTO’s factory in Kvasiny started the series production of the new SUV model ŠKODA Kodiaq on October 18, 2016. The production has required investments in the extension and modernisation of the factory. The automaker plans to invest CZK 7.2bn in the factory by 2018. Its capacity will likely grow up to 280,000 cars a year. Besides the model ŠKODA Kodiaq, the Kvasiny-based factory manufactures also models Superb and Yeti.
