Farmers are amongst the most prudent purchasers in the market place and demand durable, reliable vehicles with excellent efficiency, hence the reason we see such a positive fit between ŠKODA and farmers. In recent years we have been able to cater even more towards farmers’ needs with a range of 4×4 vehicles, for example the Octavia Scout, the newest incarnation of which, will be launched at this year’s Ploughing Championships.”
