Overview
Put away your Czech book. If you don't live in Europe, chances are you won't be buying a ŠKODA. Once the Czech Republic's state carmaker, ŠKODA is a subsidiary of Volkswagen. The company makes six core models -- Fabia (available in hatchback and combi), Octavia (in liftback and combi), Superb (luxury sedan and wagon), and Yeti, Praktik and Roomster (hatchback and compact SUV variations). In addition to manufacturing plants in the Czech Republic, ŠKODA assembles cars in India, Russia, and with partners, in the Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Slovakia, and China. ŠKODA was once the butt of jokes due to a reputation for low quality and its name (translated in Czech as "shame"), but the company is reversing that perception.
