The design is predominantly shaped by the light contours, the aerodynamic body, the steeply raked windscreen, and the gently sloping roof typical of Skoda estate models. The model designation "Vision O" is derived from the concept of circularity. This holistic approach to recycling and reusing components minimises the environmental impact of vehicle development and production. Furthermore, the concept is also characterized by the combination of functionality and user experience. The Vision O concept continues the manufacturer's legacy of estate cars, encompassing models such as the historical L&K 110, known for its variable body options. The most successful is the Skoda Octavia estate, first introduced in 1960. Modern versions of the Skoda Octavia estate have already surpassed the milestone of more than 3 million units produced in four generations since 1998, making it also the best-selling estate model in Skoda history. First launched in 2008 with the second-modern-generation Superb, the Skoda Superb estate is also highly popular. Other well-liked Skoda estate models include the Skoda 1101 Tudor Station Wagon (STW) with a folding rear seat, as well as the Skoda 1200/1201/1202 car family. The Skoda Vision O design concept will be presented in Munich at the beginning of September 2025.
