The report is limited to noting achievements to date and Skoda has not published targets for future environmental impact reduction, such as CO2 emissions reduction.
In a statement Skoda chairman Reinhard Jung said: “”We at Skoda Auto consider environmental protection very important, and can substantiate this statement with tangible results. It is not only the much-discussed reduction of emissions of CO2 and other contaminants generated by cars, it’s mainly about environmentally-friendly production processes, environmentally-friendly procedures involved in new investments, socially responsible policies, and much more. As the company has made considerable progress in this respect, we have decided to describe our achievements in this sustainability report.”
