The new emission standard would make Fabia cars more expensive so that they would be unsaleable, says Jahn

“The proposals we are seeing now would make it impossible to produce smaller cars, because the cost of producing them would rise so that they would be practically unsaleable,” says Martin Jahn, a member of the Škoda Auto Board of Directors, about the forthcoming Euro 7 standard. According to him, the transition to electromobility will be gradual in the case of Škoda cars. “Due to markets such as Russia or North Africa, Škoda has to maintain internal combustion engines for a longer period of time,” he explains.
