Skoda Tech Centre to benefit India ops

Škoda Auto has opened a new technology centre in Mladá Boleslav in Czech Republic. The developments and advancements through this technological centre will result in better technology and performance for the company and its products. The developments would trickle down to India in Skoda’s products.

Engineers and other qualified specialists from Skoda India will be trained in this new centre. Even though there are no immediate plans to set up a similar centre in India, SkodaAuto India management said that it is an idea they will consider in the future.

According to Dr. Eckhard Scholz, BOD Member for Technological Development, “The construction of the new Technology Centre reinforces Škoda Auto’s research competences across the VW Group and makes it possible to continue the company’s tradition of developing and designing automobiles in the Czech Republic.”

Adds Thomas Kuehl, Board Member, Sales and Marketing, Skoda India, “We look at our new facility as a major investment in driving innovation and cutting edge technology, ensuring our continual focus on delivering state-of-the-art products for our customers across the globe”.

The Technology Centre is going to be put into full operation in mid-2009. Besides offices, the centre’s operations will include electronics and electrical engineering development laboratories and workshops, engine and chassis development sites, acoustics and noise test rooms, a sunlight simulation test facility, climate chambers and a light tunnel.
