Mladá Boleslav, 24 July 2026 – Škoda Auto confirmed its strong position in the global market in the first half of 2026, delivering 555,700 vehicles to customers worldwide, up 9.1% year on year. In Europe (EU27+4), the carmaker remained the second-best-selling brand, retaining the position it held after the first quarter. Driven by growing customer demand for electric vehicles, deliveries of the all-electric Elroq and Enyaq rose 48.3% year on year to 108,200 vehicles. These results make Škoda the fourth-best-selling BEV brand in Europe. Plug-in hybrid deliveries also increased 11.8% to 24,100 vehicles. As a result, more than one in four Škoda customers in Europe chose an electrified vehicle. The recently introduced all-electric Epiq and Peaq double Škoda’s electric portfolio and offer further growth potential, with more than 30,000 orders received across the two models. Škoda Auto’s revenue rose 6.3% to €16.0 billion, operating profit increased 6.3% to €1.4 billion, return on sales remained at a very solid 8.5%, and net cash flow rose 14.3% to €1.7 billion. These results were supported by higher sales volumes, strict cost discipline and the effective use of synergies within the Volkswagen Group and Brand Group Core.This article was read by AI-generated voice.
