Fourth and Fifth
Episode of
the Škoda Social
Week Podcast
In the fourth episode of this
podcast series focused on
intergenerational dialogue,
guests discussed topics such
as how street art can shape
the public spaces we live in and
what it means when a place no
longer serves as ‘home’. How
do generational expectations
for the ‘ideal place to live’
evolve? Are we able to agree
on what public spaces should
look like? And how can we
contribute to shaping their
future? In the nal fth episode,
guests explored how dierent
generations view historical
milestones and whether
traditions and customs are still
passed down today.

Transforming the Classic Octavia:
Škoda Voltavia and Octavia Project X
At the Paris Motor Show, our French colleagues took part in the Škoda Retrot
Battle, where two teams – Turbo and Automobile Propre – were challenged to
convert a s Octavia into an electric vehicle with a range of at least km.
The Automobile Propre team, a pioneer in electromobility, presented the Voltavia –
an electried
Octavia Combi that
stays true to
the original design
while delivering
up to hp
and a range
exceeding km.
The team focused
on enhancing the
car’s aerodynamics,
preserving the original weight, and integrating modern touches like a green paint
nish and an electric scooter stored in the boot. The second team, made up
of members from M’s longest-running show, Turbo, introduced the Octavia
Project X. Their transformation took a bolder approach, partnering with W-Auto
Sport and Strate College to design a dragster based on the Octavia, boasting
over hp and more than Nm of torque. The goal was to demonstrate
that radical transformation and high performance can go hand-in-hand with
electrication.
