Skoda Vietnam launches the journey "Independence to Reunification"

On the morning of August 19 in Ho Chi Minh City, the roadshow with a long line of Skoda cars on the street attracted the attention of many people. This was the opening activity for the cross-Vietnam journey "From Independence to Reunification", gathering dozens of Skoda cars of different car lines.

Starting from the Skoda Go Vap dealership with the participation of members from the Skoda Phu My Hung and Skoda Binh Duong dealerships, the delegation marched past the Independence Palace before officially setting off to conquer the distance of more than 2,000 km to Thong Nhat Park (Hanoi). The journey carried a message of solidarity and affirmation of the presence of the Czech Republic brand in Vietnam.

The parade convoy consisted of a total of 9 main vehicles, including 5 Kushaqs – the first Czech urban SUV/crossover model manufactured in Vietnam, 2 Karoqs and 2 Kodiaqs of the latest generation imported completely built-up. All vehicles were covered with the same decal with the theme “From Independence to Reunification”, combining the image of the red flag with a yellow star and historical symbols. As expected, 3 Slavias – the first Czech urban sedan model manufactured in Vietnam – will also appear on the journey across Vietnam.

This is an opportunity for Skoda to become closer to Vietnamese customers, while affirming our determination to stay long-term with this market, as well as our commitment to cooperate with our partner TC Group”.

Mr. Thong also reviewed the recent milestones of the Czech brand in Vietnam, such as the Skoda factory in Viet Hung officially coming into operation in March 2025, and the Kushaq model being introduced to the market in June 2025. According to him, this series of consecutive activities shows that Skoda is not only bringing products to Vietnam, but also building a long-term foundation for sustainable development.

Also at this launching event, Mr. Ondrej Cerny - Head of Skoda Auto Representative Office in Vietnam - shared: "We are honored to accompany the 80th anniversary of Vietnam's National Day. This journey is an opportunity for Skoda to directly introduce products, enhance brand image and become closer to customers in Vietnam".

The journey “From Independence to Reunification” will pass through many localities such as Buon Ma Thuot, Da Nang, Vinh, Thanh Hoa, Thai Binh , Nam Dinh, Bac Giang and Quang Ninh, before ending at Thong Nhat Park (Hanoi). Here, the Skoda convoy bearing the symbol “From Independence to Reunification” will be displayed, creating an opportunity for the people of the capital to directly admire it.
