60 years of Skoda Octavia full feature: https://aex.ae/2XXlmF3

If a week is a long time in politics, 60 years is a lifetime in the automotive industry. Yet that is how long the Skoda Octavia has been on our roads, with the original car emerging from Skoda’s Mladá Boleslav factory in what was then Czechoslovakia in 1959, and three subsequent generations arriving after Volkswagen bought the company back in the nineties.

The original Octavia got its name because it was the eighth model to come out of those factory gates after the Second World War. It was offered as a two-door saloon and a Kombi estate, going on to notch up 363,106 sales globally before production ended in 1971.
