WELCOME TO ŠKODA’S<br />
ELECTRIC VEHICLES (EVS)<br />
The market for electric cars, plug-in<br />
hybrids (PHEVs) and battery electric<br />
vehicles (BEVs) is growing rapidly,<br />
production of the CITIGO battery<br />
electric vehicle (BEV), the brand's<br />
first all-electric model will<br />
start late this year along with<br />
the SUPERB plug-in hybrid<br />
electric vehicle (PHEV),<br />
ŠKODA’s first plug-in hybrid<br />
model. Production of the<br />
VISION iV, Skoda’s purely<br />
electric model based on the<br />
MEB (Modular Electrification Kit)<br />
platform, will follow next year. Due<br />
to a focus on electric mobility with the<br />
most extensive investment program in its<br />
history ŠKODA AUTO will have a total of<br />
10 electrified models on the market by<br />
2025.<br />
<strong>2019</strong> is an important year for Škoda:<br />
by premièring the SUPERB iV and<br />
CITIGOe iV, Škoda is introducing its iV<br />
sub-brand<br />
and entering<br />
the eMobility era.<br />
The iV goes beyond the<br />
manufacture electrified models.<br />
It is an interconnecting system<br />
for mobility solutions. Specifically,<br />
this means Škoda will be offering affordable<br />
wallboxes with varying levels of output<br />
so that customers have the convenience<br />
of home charging, as well as Škoda<br />
Connectmobile online services. As for<br />
the models themselves, each iV car can<br />
be charged with a cable.
