Car Production

When speaking about innovations in the automobile industry, most of us think of new solutions and technology used directly in cars. However, the development of the production process is just as important. We constantly look for innovative new ways to make our cars with the lowest possible emission levels. We also focus on continually making them more economical to run.

Cutting Edge Automobile Technology and People

To produce the ŠKODA Fabia, Octavia, and Superb models, we built new manufacturing facilities complete with the most advanced technology available. Our employees are leading specialists in their fields, some of the best in the world. As a result, the ŠKODA cars rolling off the production lines at our factories in the Czech Republic and abroad are built with excellent quality and technical specifications.

Stamping Car Body Parts

We produce ŠKODA car body parts at three stamping factories that house 14 stamping lines as well as other production lines. Using the most advanced equipment, we can produce high quality car body parts for over 1,300 Fabia bodies or 860 second-generation Octavia bodies each and every day. In order to produce high-quality car body parts, we create the most intricate casting tools. The tool production process facility is equipped with machining centres that can fulfil complex orders with ease.

Welding

Each part must be perfectly welded during assembly to attain a flawless final finish and impeccable final appearance. At the modern facilities in Mladá Boleslav and in Kvasiny in northern Bohemia, qualified personnel work side-by-side with hundreds of robots to weld subassemblies as well as entire car bodies with absolute precision. We manufacture car bodies for the new Octavia, and Fabia model versions in Mladá Boleslav. The welded bodies for the Superb luxury limousines are produced at Kvasiny.

Car Painting

It is impossible to imagine a new car without a perfect coloured coat. We have built outstanding modern facilities that utilise automated and robotised manufacturing processes to paint ŠKODA cars. We also use the best quality materials that have a low environmental impact, including water-soluble topcoats. We have so much confidence in the quality of our craftsmanship that we provide a 3-year guarantee against paint flaws for all vehicles. We also offer a 12-year guarantee against rust for all models.

Metal Casting

At ŠKODA, we have a long history of leadership in metal cast moulds production and forgings for engines and gearboxes. In 1962 we proudly became the first in Europe to use a high-pressure pouring production process to intricate and complex aluminium cylinder blocks. Metal casting moulds from the aluminium foundry, grey cast iron and forgings from the forging facility in Mladá Boleslav are used not just in other VW Group car manufacturing factories, but also at a number of other local and international sites.

Engines and gearboxes production

ŠKODA’s engines, axles and gearboxes production facility is one of the most advanced production bases within the entire VW Group. Here we produce modern three-cylinder 1.2L motors for ŠKODA, VW and Seat brand cars. Besides additional petrol and diesel motors, we also assemble MQ 200 modern concept gearboxes for the VW Group and ŠKODA Auto. These gearboxes are notable for their ability to offer a comfortable and quiet ride. We also assemble some front and rear axles at the facility.

Final assembly

The state of the art production line in Mladá Boleslav produces the ŠKODA Fabia and Octavia models. The Superb is manufactured at the newly reconstructed and expanded factory branch in Kvasiny. We also assemble ŠKODA cars at additional international manufacturing and assembly plants. We are meticulous about quality and ensure each and every car we produce is subjected to a vigorous testing. There’s an exit check-up that tests all the systems and controls the quality of assembly work before being dispatched.
