    Skoda Vision GT Concept - Exterior Sketch

    SKODA Design has introduced a new design concept, the VISION GT, which is an all-electric racing car in the form of a computer-generated model. It is currently being showcased at the ‘Design and Transformation’ exhibit in Brussels, as part of the Czech Republic’s EU Presidency. The VISION GT draws inspiration from SKODA’s 1100 OHC concept from 1957 and is part of the ‘Icons Get a Makeover’ series that reinvents iconic models from SKODA’s past, such as the 130 RS, FELICIA, and RAPID MONTE CARLO.

    The ŠKODA VISION GT is a featured exhibit at the ‘Design and Transformation’ exhibition in Brussels. It is an all-electric racing car in the form of a computer-generated model that draws its inspiration from SKODA’s 1100 OHC concept from 1957. The exhibit showcases Czech products and designs from 1990 to 2020, in alignment with the Czech Republic’s EU presidency. The SKODA design team has infused the VISION GT with the company’s commitment to sustainable sportiness and emotion in the digital age.

    The VISION GT’s single-seater design, with the driver placed in the center, is based on the SKODA 1100 OHC, featuring a futuristic carbon steering wheel that is flattened at the top and bottom, and a red, open-top design. The active cockpit with a flexibly suspended seat aims to offset g-forces for a superior driving experience. The on-screen bar, located above the wheel, serves as a windshield and displays critical information on the driver’s helmet visor, similar to a head-up display.

    The VISION GT’s design is flat, with clear lines and sharp edges, inspired by the design of Formula E racing cars. The two-piece rear wing is a standout feature, with active aerodynamics to maximize performance. The holographic SKODA wordmark is situated between the upper wing profiles and on the front of the car, referencing the curved SKODA line.

    In conclusion, SKODA Design’s VISION GT concept, a computer-generated all-electric racing car, has been displayed at the ‘Design and Transformation’ exhibit in Brussels. Drawing inspiration from the 1100 OHC and featuring a red, open-top design, the VISION GT’s flat and sharp design is inspired by Formula E racing cars. The VISION GT is part of SKODA’s ‘Icons Get a Makeover’ series, reinventing iconic models from the company’s history with a commitment to sustainable sportiness and emotion in the digital age.

  • First exterior sketches of SKODA VISION 7S

    Releasing the first exterior sketches of the VISION 7S concept car, ŠKODA AUTO reveals further details of its new design language. The drawings provide a preview of the study’s body. The sketches show a powerful SUV featuring a striking front end with T-shaped headlights.

    The exterior sketches of the all-electric ŠKODA VISION 7S concept car depict a newly designed, striking front end. The significantly wider and flatter ŠKODA grille is dark and closed. The front headlights, which have been repositioned far out to the edge of the vehicle, are arranged in two rows one above the other, and the sharply defined daytime running light strip above them extends laterally into the pronounced wings, extending the light cluster to form a ‘T’.

    The sharply contoured bonnet cites the well-known ŠKODA line. The striking, completely redesigned bumper features seven vertically arranged air inlets, with the central one sporting an insert in eye-catching orange. The lower apron area is fitted with an aluminium underride guard. Large, aerodynamically optimised wheels emphasise the VISION 7S’s powerful visual appearance. The side view is defined by clear surfaces and a gently sloping roof line to the rear.

    ŠKODA’s new design language reflects familiar brand values, such as robustness, functionality and authenticity, and stands out with its spacious interior, durable, sustainable materials and aerodynamic, efficient body.
