'Dynamic' Skoda looks to bright future

Winfried Vahland 

He told 皇冠体育app Daily that Skoda's current performance has already beat his expectation.

"This year we will have six products in 皇冠体育app. And we plan to develop a new SUV, larger than Yeti, in 2016 and bring it to 皇冠体育app in early 2017. With this product portfolio, we target to occupy 3 to 4 percent of the passenger vehicle market," said Vahland.

Besides new product offerings, Vahland said that promising dealers' profitability is also key to Skoda's development in 皇冠体育app.

"Thus, I strongly believe that Skoda will have a long-term, future in 皇冠体育app," he added.

Plug-in hybrid

"Hybrid is one of the major directions for Skoda's new-energy vehicle development," said Vahland.

"We will first equip the system with the Octavias, Superbs, and also our SUVs."

Vahland said he thinks it is not yet time for pure-electric vehicles.

"Development of electrics in 皇冠体育app has not achieved what the industry expected several years before."
