CARS and PEOPLE Škodaauto 2007 ANNUAL REPORT INVENTIVE SPIRIT SIMPLY CLEVER CARS AND PEOPLE ŠkodaAuto 2007 ANNUAL REPORT INVENTIVE SPIRIT Jens Manske (Head of Design), Lada Dlabolová (interior designer) – posing in front of an interior model at the Škoda Auto Design Centre Jana Bonková, Věra Vasická – matching colour and upholstery samples in the background Long before a new model is designed, the technical development department begins to work on the first conceptual sketches. Upon compiling draft designs, the overall vehicle concept is ready for further elaboration. We have a lot of new ideas for products that we are developing with enthusiasm and great ambition. We are a motivated and efficient team ambitiously working on each new project whole-heartedly and with great determination. Jens Manske, Head of Design ŠKODA SUPERB CHANGE YOUR SENSE OF SPACE ŠKODA OCTAVIA RS EVERYDAY LIFE. TURBOCHARGED ŠKODA ROOMSTER FIND YOUR OWN ROOM ŠKODA FABIA LOVE AT FIRST DRIVE Škoda stands for top quality, smart solutions, roominess, attractive designs and characteristic style. Of course, the same applies for its flag-ship, the Superb. This makes the Superb the ideal limousine for people who know what they want, who are conscious about what they expect from products and brands, and who are, in this sense, very demanding. NO COMPROMISE IN SPACE AND COMFORT With its imposing interior space offer, its outstanding room in the rear passenger compartment, its smart and useful details and overall elegance, the Škoda Superb offers a consequential “big plus” in comfort, space and smart solutions. The car therefore brings a rewarding driving experience not only for the driver but also for the passengers. At last a car which brings fun and practicality. A car that offers the best of both worlds: it is practical for shopping, and fun to drive to the favourite club. PRACTICAL AND FUN The Octavia RS differs from its competitors by the “two sides” of its personality: it offers an outstanding ratio of practicality and fun. Thanks to the large luggage compartment and powerful engines it appeals to the dual needs of its target customers: rational and emotional. It is the positive attitude of Roomster owners towards life and its daily turnarounds that make them special. People driving a Roomster look forward to every day and all the new perspectives it will bring. FOR NEW PERSPECTIVES IN LIFE With the Roomster they have a car that ideally expresses their curiosity. By its roominess and flexibility it gives them the freedom to enjoy new experiences to the full – day in, day out. Looking for a new car is a bit like looking for a partner. One can choose between various alternatives. Mr. Show-off, Ms. Boring, the cute one, the sunny girl etc. But in the end everybody is looking for Mr. or Ms. Right. This one and only person that fits perfectly to oneself. YOUR PERFECT PARTNER Of course, the new Fabia is a good-looking car with an appearance full of character. It is also a car with personal qualities and skills. The look and feel of its high-quality interior, its unexpected spaciousness and its attractive design provide the reassurance of having the partner that fits perfectly to you. The new Fabia Combi is ideal for young, active people. Combining substance, style and roominess, it is the perfect family partner.

In 2007, Škoda Auto Group posted the best performance results in Company history, and it did so in all areas of the business. Also, record numbers of vehicles produced and sold were reflected in an excellent earnings result. We also made progress in the field of social responsibility where, in particular, the adoption of the Codex of Corporate Governance brings a further shift in Škoda Auto’s transparency and information openness. And the newly opened Na Karmeli Education Centre will contribute to the development of the region’s educational profile. Our attention in 2007 was focused on the Fabia model line. In the spring, we unveiled the new-generation Fabia to the public at the Geneva Motor Show. Shortly after launch, this vehicle received the prestigious automotive award Zlatý volant (“Golden Steering Wheel”) for the best new small car of the year. Later in the year, the new-generation Fabia Combi (estate) model was introduced at the IAA Frankfurt Motor Show, and our customers will be able to buy it starting in 2008.
