Škoda Auto has reached a significant milestone by producing its one-millionth battery system at its main plant in Mladá Boleslav.
In 2019, Škoda Auto began manufacturing high-voltage traction batteries for the Superb iV plug-in hybrid powertrain. In May 2022, the plant started producing larger batteries for fully electric vehicles built on the MEB platform.
In 2023, the production facilities in Mladá Boleslav were expanded with a second assembly line to deliver a combined daily output of 1,500 units. These batteries, with capacities ranging from 55 to 91 kWh (net capacity 52 to 86 kWh), are used in the Škoda Enyaq and Škoda Elroq, as well as vehicles from other Volkswagen Group brands, including Volkswagen, SEAT/CUPRA, and Audi.
“Reaching the milestone of one million battery systems made by Škoda Auto for Volkswagen Group vehicles testifies to the dedication of our team and the close collaboration among the different brands. This achievement also highlights our commitment to sustainable mobility and our contribution to driving the industry’s transformation towards a greener future. With determination, we are now taking the next steps: Construction of an additional battery system facility in Mladá Boleslav is already underway."
