00:08 This is my first SCOA event and I think it's... I'm speechless.
00:13 So it's really great. It's really great.
00:15 The event was really more than a live event.
00:18 I saw a lot of static events.
00:20 You have a stage, people are talking, you have a bit of emotions.
00:24 But here, the board, the presenters were part of the stage.
00:30 They were going around, cars were around, people could look and be part of it.
00:33 And I think it was a great place to be.
00:36 And I really have to tell you, I was working one minute away from this place.
00:40 But I've never seen it. It's such a hidden treasure here.
00:43 So that I have to say to the organizers, well done.
00:46 Great place and great organization.
00:48 I think we need ICE cars.
00:50 And these ICE cars, especially the model that we have here behind,
00:53 they really generate a substantial, let's say, value to our company.
00:58 And that's why I'm so thrilled that we have this kind of car
01:01 that meets the requirements of our customers
01:04 and thereby enables us to put money into the investment of our new cars.
01:09 [Music]
01:12 Kodiak is more successful on some classic markets,
01:15 such as the Czech Republic, Poland and Germany.
01:18 But also on markets such as Great Britain and France.
01:21 We want to strengthen the position of the brand and continue to grow.
01:24 The Kodiak model also has an important role in strengthening the brand's image.
01:28 And because the new model is really beautiful,
01:31 it's very technically advanced,
01:33 we think it will move the brand's image and quality to further heights.
01:39 [Music]
01:42 We know that our customers like interior roominess,
01:46 big luggage compartment and, of course, value for money.
01:50 And all these aspects perfectly fit to our new ŠKODA Kodiak.
01:55 Not to forget practicality and our very well-known Simply Clever features, right?
02:02 So this is what we are known for and what we also believe
02:05 that our customers like very much in our brand.
02:07 [Music]
02:12 One of the design elements that we, two I would mention, two, yeah,
02:15 in the interior is the smart dials.
02:17 This is a really good thing, yeah, because you can operate the functions much easier, much nicer.
02:25 You have the center knob that is programmable, yeah.
02:28 So this is really a very good innovation for the car.
02:31 And the second one on the X-Tail, I would say,
02:33 is also this light graphic that we see here on the front of the car between the grille.
02:37 The segmented lights that we also have in the back.
02:39 I think this is really a nice accomplishment for the upcoming next ŠKODA.
02:43 [Music]
02:48 There were a lot of challenges.
02:49 We had a lot more ideas, of course, over time it was reduced,
02:54 however, we focus more on durable materials,
02:57 as well as on modern solid elements, for example X-stitching,
03:03 as well as a chrome substitute for matte paint.
03:08 [Applause]
