Škoda New Zealand

In 1895, our founders, Václav Laurin and Václav Klement, said, “Only the best we can do is good enough for our customers." Today, over 125 years later, this ongoing commitment has led Škoda to become one of Europe’s leading car manufacturers and enabled it to expand to over 100 countries worldwide.

The Škoda head office, in the Czech Republic, has grown to become one of the largest companies and a key player in the economy. In fact, we employ over 23,500 people, working with a further 265 subcontractors - making up 7.5% of all exports out of the Czech Republic.
