Škoda Steps Up Production To Meet Growing Demand
Škoda Auto has announced a major increase in global production, underlining the strong demand for its latest models and its continued investment in future mobility.
In 2025, Škoda produced 1,065,000 vehicles worldwide, representing a 15% year-on-year increase. In addition, the manufacturer built more than 329,000 battery systems for Škoda electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles – as well as for other brands within the Volkswagen Group – alongside over 1,030,000 transmissions and more than 500,000 engines.
At the brand’s main production site in Mladá Boleslav, a total of 605,600 Škoda vehicles rolled off the production lines during the year.
Electric vehicles continue to be a key driver of this growth. The new all-electric compact SUV Elroq reached 112,500 vehicles produced since series production began in January 2025, while the larger all-electric Enyaq followed with around 77,000 units built.
Škoda is also strengthening its international manufacturing network. A new plant has opened in Vietnam in partnership with Thanh Cong Group, where the Slavia and Kushaq models are now assembled. In India, output rose significantly too, driven by strong demand for the Kylaq SUV.
The success follows Škoda’s expansion of production capacity in 2024 and marks a major milestone for the brand. For the first time in six years, Škoda has exceeded one million vehicles produced in a single year – a clear reflection of the commitment and teamwork of its global manufacturing teams.
Here at Lightcliffe Škoda, this is very positive news for our customers. Stronger production and expanding facilities across the Škoda network help us support shorter lead times, better availability of popular models, and an ever-growing choice of electric and electrified vehicles.
