Škoda is to present a design study at Geneva which heralds the next design language for the brand. At first sight, it looks like a more sporty direction for Volkswagen’s Czech-based value brand.

‘VisionC’ is described as a five-door coupé body design that points to the next stage in the brand’s design evolution.

Škoda says it plans to “renewing and broaden” its entire range of models. As a part of that, it says the design language of the dynamic and elegant five-door coupé is “taking the leading role in the next evolutionary steps”.

Škoda’s design, the brand says, “is becoming more expressive, dynamic and emotional”. The brand adds that the five-door coupé study “shows the possibility of innovative body concepts”.
