News: Skoda already boasting of six new car launches this year


Crikey, we haven't even gotten in to 2013 proper yet and Skoda is already talking about launches in December...

The Czech car maker, the apple of the VW Group's eye and well on its way to meeting its target of selling 1.5-million cars a year, has already launched the new Rapid hatchback in Ireland, and we've seen the first pics and details of the much-anticipated new Octavia saloon and estate which arrives in March. But what else have the Czechs got up their sleeves?

Well, there's definitely an updated Superb on the way, which Skoda insiders tell us keeps the clever/useless (delete as applicable) TwinDoor boot system but which does away with the bulky, awkward styling of the current saloon model.

Beyond that, there will probably be launches for the new vRS versions of the new Octavia and likely a facelift for the hugely popular Yeti.

Or, are there bigger changes afoot? Has Skoda got an all-new Fabia ready to go? Or what about the replacement for the oddball Roomster? Any takers?
