hours of work on
a paper Kodiaq
Hobby modeler Petr Seemann
creates paper car models entirely
on his own. Now he has showcased
his most elaborate creation:
the Kodiaq Sportline SUV
on the 1:10 scale. Seemann
worked on the model for a year and
a half, spending over 700 hours
on it, relying solely on photographs
and sketches with basic technical
specications. He imported this data
into a AutoCAD program and used
it to obtain a number of additional
detailed dimensions. The model is
made primarily of coated paper and
cardboard; the body panels have 4
to 5 layers of red paint and one layer
of clear coat; the seat upholstery is
fabric, with thread edging. Seemann
crafted the windows from Durofol
and the wheels from plywood; the
front wheels turn. Both the rear and
front lights are functional, including
the illuminated strip in the grille;
even the instrument panel and the
infotainment display are illuminated.

the Czech Tour 2026
Once again this year, we became the main partner of the Prague Pride
festival, rearming our long-term commitment to creating a respectful
and inclusive work environment. A total of 115 employees, including
Maren Gräf, Member of the Board for People and Culture, participated
in the festival activities. The Škoda Elroq Respectline on display served
as a visible symbol of openness. In addition, at Pride Park on Štvanice,
the automaker opened its own interactive
zone inspired by the Škoda Epiq model
and the theme of emotions, where the
opening of an exhibition by the Škoda
Proud employee group also took place.
In September, the festival activities will
be followed by the “Built on People”
conference, which will focus on sharing
experiences and building a respectful
environment for everyone.
