PRAGUE (Reuters) – Global deliveries for Czech carmaker Skoda Auto, part of the Volkswagen (ETR:VOWG_p) Group, rose by 6.9% in 2024, to 926,600 vehicles, boosted by rising sales in Europe as other markets drop, the company said on Wednesday.

Germany remained Skoda’s biggest market, with deliveries rising by 18.5% year-on-year, while sales in India and China were down, Skoda said.
