Skoda production head Michael Oeljeklaus said: "We are currently taking the necessary measures to continue meeting the growing demand for vehicles in this segment in the future.

In addition, since the beginning of the year the Karoq has been the brand's only vehicle to be produced at two of our Czech sites."
Skoda entered the segment with the 2009 Yeti in 2009. More recently came the Kodiaq in spring 2017 and the Karoq in October. This year brought the Kamiq sold only in China.
